Fatalist - Debut Album To See November Release
Champions of the old school Swedish death metal style (Stockholm, not Gothenburg), Ventura, California's Fatalist pay tribute to the likes of Nihilist, Grave, Entombed, and Dismember on debut full-length The Depths Of Inhumanity. The follow up to 2007's impressive (and now sold out) Loss demo will be released on November 23, 2009 on Ibex Moon Records. While the influences are obvious, the band injects its own personality into these 11 songs, while staying true to the bruising 'n buzzing sounds of early 90s Stockholm.
Guitarist/vocalist Neil Burkdoll (Dirty Dead, Stump) Burkdoll had this to say about the recording: "Well, three years in the making; it has been a long ass time. Our album The Depths of Inhumanity is finally going to see the light of day on Nov 23, 2009. It is 11 songs of old school death metal that we hope you guys enjoy. We really tried to make each song stand alone from the others and have their own identity. We are happy as hell that the album is coming out on Ibex Moon as well. We really felt that we would fit nicely on the Ibex Moon roster and it was a great day when John agreed to talk to us about an album deal. Things went really smooth with the label and we hope to work with them again in the future."
Burkdoll, along with veteran guitarist/vocalist Wes Caley (ex-Exhumed, ex-Uphill Battle), bassist Art Hayes, and drummer Tyler Castro bring the rumble with great songwriting, fierce attitude, and menacing feeling; just the way it was meant to be played. Hear for yourself why James Hoare of Terrorizer praised Fatalist for playing "Swedish death metal like the masters" and shredding "the old way."
A picture of how the cover art will look like can be found here.

Chthonic - Named "Best International Artist" At Tibetan Music Awards
Taiwanese extreme metallers Chthonic have been honored with the "Best International Artist" award for their participation in the Free Tibet concert in Taipei on July 11 of this year. The award was given out at this year's Tibetan Music Awards, which took place on October 10 in McLeod Ganj, India.
Says vocalist Freddy Lim: "This is an honor for all the performers, staff, volunteers, and audiences involved with the Free Tibet concert earlier this year in Taiwan. Let's keep fighting for justice and freedom, and I believe that all Tibetans will be winners and earn their rights eventually!"
Chthonic is currently on tour with Satyricon in support of its latest album, "Mirror of Retribution", which was issued in the U.S. on September 15 via Spinefarm Records.
Formed in 1995, Chthonic (a name deriving from a Greek word signifying spirits of the underworld) has delivered an 11-track body of work that touches on both the spirit and mortal worlds, with loss of national identity and the sometimes turbulent history of their homeland recurring themes.
With Anthrax guitarist Rob Caggiano at the production and mixing helm, "Mirror Of Retribution" sees the award-winning musicians further developing a style that started with the 1999 album "Where The Ancestors' Souls Gathered", blending full-on metal of the darker persuasion with traditional Taiwanese instruments such as two-string violin, the hena.

Anal Blast - Frontman Dies At Age 41
Donald Decker, singer/songwriter for the infamous Minnesota-based brutal death/porngrind band Anal Blast, passed away Sunday morning (October 11th). According to his friends, the passing was "peaceful." He was 41 years old.
The cause of death has not been made public, but Decker reportedly received a liver transplant last year.
Next to writing violently obscene lyrics for Anal Blast - which he said was "the most stupid band in the world" - Don Decker was also a metal concert promoter and the owner of a death metal record store. He was the first one to get Cradle Of Filth to the USA.
Anal Blast was founded in 1994 and recorded two studio albums; "Vaginal Vempire" (1998) and "Battered Bleeding Bitch" (2004) with a live DVD issued last year, entitled "Spraying Blood Live."

Kiuas - To Enter Studio Next Month
Finnish Power metallers Kiuas have issued the following update:
"So, it's been a while since we've informed you of our comings and goings on, and there have been some questions and speculations as to what Kiuas is up to, or are we up to anything...
Well, fear not my comrades! To make a long story short: We'll be entering the studio no later than in the end of November, and start recording our fourth full-length studio album. There are about 10 new masterpieces almost completely written, which we are polishing and finetuning as I write these words. The album is set to be released in March 2010 in Finland, other areas TBA. Naturally this is and has been the reason for not doing gigs for a while, since the writing, arranging and practing of the songs demands our full focus. After the release, we will start touring, the dates will be announced once confirmed (but hold your horses until next year, kids!).
As to what can you expect: expect nothing and everything! After all, making a Kiuas record is like pouring dragon egg yolk, absinth and Tabasco into Frank Zappa's mouth while he's asleep and asking him to write a symphony about the dreams he had when he wakes up... although, ...well anyway... Or, going out with the members of Kiuas: you never know what's gonna happen."

Arsis - New Album Details Revealed
Original news, posted on 30.07.2009
"Starve For The Devil" will be the name of the fourth studio album from Virginia's melodic/technical death metallers Arsis. New material will be recorded this fall with producer Zeuss (Municipal Waste, Agnostic Front, Hatebreed) at Planet Z Studios in Massachusetts. Artist Mark Riddick will provide his trademarked meticulous and grotesque artwork.
This release will mark the return of founding member/drummer Michael Van Dyne, who states: "The new Arsis record is coming along great - we have eleven new original songs nearly completed, as well as a cover song which will probably be used as a bonus track. Recording this album should be a blast, and the fact that we'll be working with one of the world's top metal producers will only make the experience that much cooler."
Guitarist/singer Jim Malone shares the following: "For the past six months we have been writing songs for "Starve For The Devil", and I must say that I am more than pleased with the way things are going. Mike Van Dyne and I rehearsed this past weekend; it was the first time we have played together in over two and a half years. The rehearsal went amazing; he has really done the songs justice. Look for "Starve For The Devil" to be released early next year and be sure to check us out on the Neckbreakers Ball European Tour in October. We will be supporting Behemoth and Devildriver and it should be, well, good times."
UPDATE (thanks to 13767)
Arsis announced the release date and tracklist of their upcoming album. "Starve For The Devil" is the second album for Nuclear Blast Records and will be released on January 15, 2010. Artwork will be online soon.
Tracklist of the album:
01. Forced to Rock
02. A March for the Sick
03. From Soulless to Shattered (Art in Dying)
04. Beyond Forlorn
05. The Ten of Swords
06. Closer to Cold
07. Sick Perfection
08. Half Past Corpse O'Clock
09. Escape Artist

Bassist Henrik Ohlsson comments: "We're pleased to announce that the video for the song "Noumenon and Phenomenon", shot in early September this year is coming together nicely. The director Maurice Swinkels is currently editing it and from what we've seen he's doing a damn fine job! We shot the video at two locations here in Sweden, the first one was basically a photostudio and the second location was... get ready now... an abandoned and haunted insane asylum!"
Maurice Swinkels comments: "Was great meeting up with the Scar Symmetry guys again since I produced their very first, one of the "The Illusionist" videos as well. We had 2 locations, one was shot with greenscreen, one was an old mental hospital which was actually near the studio of Peter Tagtgren! Very cool!"
