Century Media Records report that Danish metallers MERCENARY have just posted the second part of it's studio report for their new effort Architect Of Lies at YouTube. Check out the clip below for some further impressions from the album recordings with producer Jacob Hansen...

Furthermore, the band has posted the following update on its MySpace blog: “As a teaser for our upcoming video for the track 'Isolation', we've posted a few pics from the shooting that took place the previous weekend at this location. Everything went really smoothly, and director Morten Madsen (who also directed the video for 'My World Is Ending') had some really great ideas, which involved, to name a few, a near naked girl on a bed, a near naked girl in a shower (all very tasteful and classy, mind you) and oh yeah, of course also something about some guys standing about in cool lights with instruments. Whatever that was all about. Anyway, the few raw shots we've seen so far already looked really bad ass. A big thank-u goes out to the fans who volunteered to act as extras in the video - you guys rocked!

Moreover we also just played some of our greatest shows ever supporting MEGADETH in Denmark and Germany. It was a total blast watching them every night and a great honour being there at all. On top of that everybody in the crew and the band were very friendly and (of course) super pro's and we were treated extremely well. To state the obvious, we're of course looking very much forward to the last two shows we have with Megadeth in March - hope to catch lots of you guys out there!”
