Atrocity - Album Update


The following message was posted on Atrocity's official website:

"Finally the waiting has an end! The new Atrocity album Werk 80 II will be released at the 8th February 2008.

Alex Krull: "On the 8th February 2008 Werk 80 II is gonna be released. A quite fitting date as we find! To be serious, we took a lot of time for the production to get the best result. All friends of the first Werk 80 will like the second one too. This time we have worked together with an orchestra and a choir. So the whole album has gained a bit more of a classical touch which I personally like a lot. Everything sounds very harmonic and organic. The work on this album has been intense and thrilling. On the first Werk 80 album we also used classical elements but we enforced this on the new one. Thus the electronic parts got moved a little bit into the background. We didn't want to do the same on this successive album but including new elements and developing our style. I promise you Werk 80 II is gonna be a class of its own worth waiting for it."

As on the first Werk 80 release the following up contains mega hits of the 80ies. Pictures from the choir recording sessions you will find here. The coverartwork will be a delicious case indeed. Alex continues: "This time we got a very special covermodel - we couldn't have chosen any better. The whole artwork is state of the art and dark at the same time. We won't say more at this moment."

In november there will be released an online single, check out further news!"

Wow finally some news on this sequel! It seems they'd mentioned it nearly 2 years ago But I guess that's what happens when you tour constantly in Leaves Eyes and Atrocity forms... The original was a good compilation of songs, many of which I knew and enjoyed the Atrocity-ization. The idea of more classical elements seems more interesting than electronic elements so hopefully it's the right choice
