According to a press release, "the Oslo based five piece - vocalist Athera, bass guitarist Memnock, drummer Tjodalv, guitarists Elvorn and Cyrus - have assembled a collection of aggressive hard hitting metal songs with a melodic edge. A maelstrom of vicious riffs and melody lies at the heart of the bands powerhouse performance on the eleven new songs that make up ‘Cut From Stone’. The full track listing is ’More‘, ’Lackluster Day’, ‘The Clone’, ‘Distant Memory’ ‘Release’, ‘Life Deprived’, ‘Between The Lines’, ‘Bound To Come’, ‘Under’, ‘Brother’, ‘Cut From Stone’.
Though constantly underrated and often overlooked, Susperia have delivered on the promise shown on their last album, Unlimited. Their new recording represents a further step forward for the band as they continue to carve out their own niche in the metal fraternity."
Cut From Stone is the follow up to the band's 2004 TABU/Candlelight debut Unlimited, which has become their best selling release to date. Their first two albums were released through Nuclear Blast. Susperia subsequently released the ‘Devil May Care EP’ in 2005 which reached Number 19 on Norway's official 'Hit List', making the band the first home-grown act in the metal genre to achieve a Top 20 hit in the country.
