April 1, 2013, 11 years ago
Brazilian thrashers SLASHER have revealed the digipack artwork and tracklisting of their second album, Katharsis, which will be self-released later this year. The CD will be produced, mixed and mastered at Antfarm Studio in Aarhus, Denmark by Tue Madsen, who has previously worked with HALFORD, DARK TRANQUILLITY, VADER, BEHEMOTH and KATAKLYSM, among others.
The Katharsis digipack cover artwork can be seen below. It was signed by the french designer Stan W Decker, who has previously worked with TIMMO TOLKKI.
Katharsis tracklisting:
'Katharsis'
'Disposable God'
'Final Day'
'All Covered In Blood'
'Overcome'
'Hostile'
'Face The Facts'
'Inflicted'
'Jamais Me Entregar'
'Suffocated' (MOSH cover)
Commented guitarist Lucas Bagatella: "The album's title refers to the catharsis under a psychological optic. This is a very used term in many different contexts, like religion and arts. Our idea is an allusion to an emotional collapse which results in renewal and liberation, a change of the point of view."
Guitarist Lúcio Nunes added: "Our approach of the concept is explicit in the cover artwork. It exposes the inner hell of the one who experiences the tragedy. It contextualizes the suffering that corrupts and shatters the human being. The idea is to materialize a break of paradigm in that artwork and I believe that Stan did it perfectly."
Recently, the single 'Overcome" was self-released by the band and it's available for streaming below and download on SoundCloud here.
