Fleshgod Apocalypse - Working On New Album


Yes, the successor to Agony and third Fleshgod Apocalypse album is in the works, and more, it is also planned to be released this coming August via Nuclear Blast Records worldwide. The Italian symphonic death metal act is currently working on it with producer Stefano Morabito at 16th Cellar Studio.

Cristiano Trionfera (guitar, vocals) states: "We are tracking guitars now, and the result is amazing... Stefano is nailing it and we know the album will sound incredibly powerful."

Tommaso Riccardi (guitar, vocals) talks about the album: "The concept of this album is based on the myth of the Labyrinth of Knossos and every character related to it. We focused on the philological aspect in order to represent all the elements of the classic world and, through a manic and meticulous research, we managed to create a metaphor with our times, as the maze can be associated with the endless search for what we really are. We're sure you will be stunned by this as much as we are."

Francesco Paoli adds: "It's difficult to recap in a few words all the elements contained in our new work, but we are sure this will absolutely be THE album for us. We have spent a lot of time composing these new songs and, even if recordings are not finished yet, we can firmly declare that this material is simply incredible, more mature and definitely a huge step forward from all our previous works. Epic complex harmony, sophisticated touching melodies, a true vocal aggression, photonic grooves and back to articulated riffing... these are just few things you will find in this album. It's fucking quality music, you will see."

For this album, the band also used the collaboration of very talented guests, so stay tuned for that.

Haha, that's like saying "compose your own Metal album and upload it here, instead of writing a review of an album". :lol:

Ofc. they will use. Epicness of technical death and symphonic is their mark. Everybody knows them from this things, also, they sounds AMAZING witch orchestrations, so I don't see any setback for this.

Yep, they have. I think that only piano was real instrument (If we are talking about symphonic elements).

oh, ok
my initial question was more to the point of that they should follow Waltari"s example somewhen and use a complete orchestra

MIDI-controlled VSTs have gotten good.

This. The last album was ok-ish, but if they make another like that I think I'll lose my faith in them.

Yeah I had the same problem with the last album. The mixing was terrible, it just sounded like simple symphonic melodies over mud.

That was the only thing that i could pick out from 'Agony', other than that it was a strong release

Yeah, I thought that album was a blast, but the synth was a bit too much. Hoping for something a bit more subtle from this, as far as the fake synth goes.

Agony is such an awesome piece of brutality and simphony mixed up that this is a great piece of news to hear that another album is coming up ! The wait will be long ^^
