BELPHEGOR Commence Recording New Album At Abyss Studios On Sunday
June 16, 2010, 14 years ago
Yesterday (June 15th) Austrian black metal horde BELPHEGOR ended rehearsals for their upcoming studio album.
Bassist Serpenth comments: "It's Belphegor to the bone, nine monumental - epic arrangements. The sound collages have a haunting - ritualistic atmosphere. Werk IX will be the longest playing Belphegor album yet."
Singer Helmuth adds: "Sunday we returned form the awesome Metal Gate Open Air we shredded in Czech, and went direct back in the rehearsal bunker. Fukking wicked!!! The last rehearsals turned out fantastic. We practiced day and night to get every level to the highest peak."
On Friday, bass player Serpenth and session drummer Marthyn fly over to Sweden and hit The Abyss Studios to start the drum recordings on Sunday. Peter Tägtgren (HYPOCRISY, IMMORTAL, CELTIC FROST, DIMMU BORGIR) will be at the helm as producer and the five recording sessions and mixing/mastering process should be complete by beginning of October.
The yet untitled album's release date will be sometime in early 2011 via Nuclear Blast.
