February 24, 2008, 16 years ago
HEARSE / ex-ARCH ENEMY vocalist Johan Liiva has launched a new official website. Go to this location to check it out.
Liiva has issued the following update:
"FURBOWL has been offered to re-record and release old unreleased songs. Max has been in touch with Niclas Stenemo and he's totally into the idea. This means, the classic Autumn Years line-up will go to some studio and kick some old shit out of these tunes. I am so looking forward to it - a brand new Furbowl album!!A new band is currently in the process of writing songs for a demo (for starters) with drummer Jeramie 'Kling Of All Klings' Kling (formerly THE ABSENCE) and myself on vocals (and maybe bass, we'll see..) - plans are to find a guitar player a.s.a.p who can create music in the vein of MINISTRY goes AUTOPSY meets MORBID ANGEL or something like that. We promise a very intense and powerful experience once our tunes are found on disc.
I just finished putting some old clips in the Furbowl-section, pew! They are kinda "hidden" yet I'm sure you'll be able to find them ;) The pic- and sound-quality is awful, however I managed to re-dub (?) the audio on the two songs and after purchasing some awesome easy-to-handle software I'll be able to edit all kinds of old material that I'd love to share with you all. Enjoy the clips - especially 'Veckans Stroboskop' *lol*."
As previously reported, Liiva is due to make a guest appearance on the forthcoming OCEANS OF SADNESS album. The band issued the following statement: "We're extremely proud to announce that the one and only Johan Liiva (former Arch Enemy, Hearse, KDF) will be doing guest vocals on the song 'In The End' from the upcoming fifth album, The Arrogance Of Ignorance. We think that Johan has one of the most characteristic voices in metal music EVER and we all worship the work he's already done (the Burning Bridges album of Arch Enemy was a big influence for us all)!"
