Swiss death metallers REQUIEM re-entered Stage One Studio in Buehne/Borgentreich, Germany on December 6th and will remain there until December 23rd with acclaimed producer Andy Classen (LEGION OF THE DAMNED, DEW-SCENTED, DISBELIEF, KRISIUN and many more), recording their new album, Within Darkened Disorder.

The band have issued Studio Diary Part 2, which reads as follows: "Today Reto already achieved the impossible. All drum tracks for all songs are already recorded although there might be a few details to record again or change. Everything's looking very good so far. The drum sound will be different than on the last albums but certainly very transparent and heavy as hell concerning Reto's fills and rolls. Andy Classen changed the working method a little bit compared to the recording sessions for Infiltrate...Obliterate...Dominate. Definitely another reason for te fast and easy process so far.

In order to make sure that everythings set up perfectly for the guitar recordings in 2 - 3 days tomorrow is booked for rechecking all drum parts and arrangements. Still a lot of editing and creative work to do but this is what we like ad love and live for.

That's all for now my friends. Now it's time for Reto to be rewarded with awesome Greek food. Stin iya mas!!! Until wednesday evening."

The new album will be released in early 2011 via an undisclosed German label. Within Darkened Disorder will feature the following ten tracks:

'Echoes Of War'

'Feed The Greed'

'The Plague Without A Face'

'I Am Legion'

'Solemn Sacrifice'

'Within Darkened Disorder'

'Vicious Deception'

'Purified In Flames'

'Symbol Of Nine'

'Omnivore'

The cover artwork was created by Dan Seagrave (MORBID ANGEL, MALEVOLENT CREATION, SUFFOCATION,PESTILENCE, BENEDICTION and many more).

Vocalist Michi Kuster left Requiem in February this year "due to family reasons." The band has since decided to carry on with a new line-up.
