EPHEL DUATH - New Album To "Feature The Best Artwork This Band Have Ever Had"
April 14, 2013, 11 years ago
The sixth full-length album from progressive/avant-garde metal band EPHEL DUATH will be released later this year via Agonia Records. The follow up to On Death and Cosmos (EP, 2012) will introduce a line-up change in the rhythmic section. All bass parts have already been recorded by Bryan Beller (MIKE KENEALLY, STEVE VAI, DETHKLOK, THE ARISTOCRATS, JAMES LA BRIE, DWEEZIL ZAPPA) in replacement of Steve Di Giorgio (SADUS, TESTAMENT, DEATH, ICED EARTH) . Marco Minnemann returns playing drums for Ephel Duath bringing the creative relationship between drums and guitars to a dynamism never reached before by the band.
According to a recent press release, "the album itself can easily be described as a new mountain-sized challenge in Ephel Duath's career, that Davide Tiso (founder/guitarist) - along with the support of vocalist Karyn Crisis - is taking step by step in order to reach the zenith."
According to a new update from the band: "Ephel Duath's new album will feature the best artwork this band have ever had. Ephel Duath's visual artist Dehn Sora in collaboration with the obscure Aeron Alfrey put together something very, very special this time around. The cover art and the images included in the booklet complete the music in such a magic way and a very well defined vibe has been reached this time around: my vibe. Most album born with the intention of freeze a specific moment in time. Most musician are excited to share their albums to show to the world where they are at. Now. I'm excited to give you this new Ephel Duath album because it represents me. With this new album I'm giving you the key to the place in my head where I hide, not just a representation of "who I am today as a musician."
