Rob Cavestany, guitarist for Bay Area bashers DEATH ANGEL, has issued the following studio update:

"Starting fourth day of guitar tracking, and a fine start it is! Spent most of Saturday working out technical issues and getting tone. Now we are nice n' comfy with the process and blissfully at work. About to start song five, one of my personal faves!"

Death Angel entered Jason Suecof's AudioHammer Studios in Florida on April 8th to begin recording the follow-up to their 2010 release, Relentless Retribution.

The band check in from the studio below:

Guitarist Rob Cavestany recently issued the following update: “Relentless turned out the way we wanted so we we're taking it to the next level with the same team. The new album will be done at AudioHammer Studios with Jason Suecof and I producing. We had a blast doing the last record there and now we know each other better and how well we work together... plus the album cover art is being done by Brent Elliot White who did Relentless Retribution. Let's just say we have a good feeling about this one.

All the music has been written - much of it on tour buses during the past couple of years, the rest of it in the studio over the past few months. This is some of the heaviest, fastest, most powerful material we've ever created! There's something really dark in it too... music is and always will be our outlet to vent and release the built up pressure that life deals. In the world today we need it more than ever!!!

Currently the new record is slated for release in October. Of course a massive tour will follow! It's our mission to deliver, we ain't fuckin’ around! Thank you all for your support!"
