ARCEYE Post At First Light Studio Blog Part I
June 12, 2013, 11 years ago
UK death thrashers ARCEYE have posted part one of a two part studio blog which takes the viewer behind the scenes of At First Light, the bands upcoming new album.
Part one of the blog shows footage of drums being tracked at Foel Studios in Wales with renowned producer Chris Fielding (NAPALM DEATH, CEREBRAL BORE, DARKEST ERA). "We had previously mixed the first album The Divide Between Chaos & Order there and enjoyed working with the engineer Chris Fielding so it was a good option to use this time round", states drummer Craig Mackay. "We also know a lot of bands (XERATH, ENVY OF THE STATE) who have used the same studio and have gotten some great results."
The album will be released worldwide on August 7th via Hostile Media.
Commenting on the album the band said: “This album we feel we have really trimmed the fat on our songwriting and made it the best it could be! If we didn’t think that it kicked ass it didn’t make the cut! We also stepped up the production value and worked with Scott Atkins (SYLOSIS, CRADLE OF FILTH, AMON AMARTH, GAMMA BOMB) on the mix and master. The Meaning of ‘At First Light’ is a representation of where we felt we were as a band when we were writing the album. Since our last release we have gained two new members, both with a writing influence and we’ve developed more of a vision of the music we wanted to play.”
