Brujeria - To Appear On Vive Latino Festival
This fest comes into being every year, the 7° Edition will feature one of the sickest bands in the latin metal scene, the band is "Brujeria", they will be the ones closing this Festival actually. The bands featured in this fest are everything but meta (Lucybell, Vaquero, Zurdok, Austin T.V., Lost Acapulco, Zoé, Hummersqueal, among others), so we hope nothing but good responses about Brujeria and their death metal roots.

Anaal Nathrakh - New Album Almost Complete
Anaal Nathrakh are approximately 70% finished with the recording of their new album. The following may help plug the gaping hole between now and its release:
Owing to the lack of regard for decency shared by Mordgrimm and Earache records, the labels have decided to mutually re-release Anaal Nathrakh's 'The Codex Necro' and 'When Fire Rains Down From The Sky, Mankind Will Reap As It Has Sown' (label will vary according to territory). To further extend the list of various justifications for their respective punishment, obliteration and damnation, those concerned have chosen to augment these versions of the recordings by the inclusion of the following:
The Codex Necro will have bonus tracks comprising the Peel Session recorded for the late John Peel's legendary radio show at the BBC studios at the great man's personal request. These include the first ever performance of 'The Oblivion Gene,' later to appear in its full re-recorded form on the subsequent album Domine Non Es Dignus. No, that doesn't mean this session was the first recording of the song, it means it was the first performance EVER, the song was never even rehearsed before this recording session.
When Fire... is reissued with the inclusion of Anaal Nathrakh's full live band debut, the Rock Show live session recorded for the BBC radio show of the same name. Notable in this instance, alongside performances from Ventnor and Chemical Nova, are the appearances of Emburyonymous making its live debut for the band, and Nick Barker who bastardised for this recording alone.
The releases are simultaneous for the American territory on the 18th of April, and releases in other territories will follow in the weeks after this date.

Mortiis - Begins Work On Follow Up To 'The Grudge'
Notodden,Norway - Mortiis has begun writing for a planned 2006 follow -up to 'The Grudge'
Mortiis has been collaborating with well-known producer Rhys Fulber (Fear Factory, Delerium, Frontline Assembly, Paradise Lost) and is currently demoing material.
"On the new songs, we are focusing more on what I think got a bit lost last time, which is songwriting and continuity," said Mortiis. "Last time I was trying to make a really angry and abusive record, and I wanted to do everything at the same time because I wanted all this noisy stuff to happen. The distorted noise, electronics, and samples are still there, but these songs are more focused and have a more coherent interaction between the programmed and the organic. They are definitely a lot more organic, and I am putting a lot of weight on guitars this time."
Some of the working song titles include: "The Ugly Truth", "Doppelganger", "Hard to Believe", "Zeitgeist", "Scolding the Burnt" and "Great Deceiver".
In other news, guitarist Åge Troite has replaced Åsmund Sveinunggard for live duties with Mortiis. European and North American dates are being worked on at this time.
