CANNIBAL CORPSE Recording New Album In September / October - "No Big Surprises, Just Brutality!"
May 29, 2011, 13 years ago
Bassist Alex Webster from Florida-based death metal giants CANNIBAL CORPSE recently spoke with CraveMetal.com. An excerpt from the interview is available below.
Q: There have been many death metal bands since 1990 when you guys released Eaten Back to Life. Some are still around today, some called it a day, and new ones are on the rise. How do you feel the death metal scene differs today to what it was back in early 1990?s?
AW: "The main difference is that the genre is now fully established. In the beginning, it was brand new and still being defined. There were only a handful of bands to draw influence from when we started, now there are hundreds (even thousands) of bands in the death metal scene…new bands have a large body of work to draw inspiration from and build upon. Another difference in the scene today is that information travels much more quickly via the Internet. In the old days we all got our info by word of mouth, on the phone, or through snail mail. I remember waiting weeks for demos to arrive at my house. Now you just Google a band’s name and listen to the tracks they’ve posted online."
Q: When can we expect to see next studio album released? Any news or info on new material?
AW: "We’ll be recording in September and October, so the album should come out sometime in early 2012. The material will be death metal done the Cannibal Corpse way…no big surprises, just brutality!"
