August 12, 2010

Professionally filmed video footage of Danish thrash metal veterans ARTILLERY performing the song "Khomaniac" at this year's installment of the Rock Hard festival — which was held May 21-23, 2010 at the Amphitheater in Gelsenkirchen, Germany — can be viewed below. (Note: The footage originally aired on WDR's [German public TV] series "Rockpalast".)

ARTILLERY will enter Medley Studios in Copenhagen on November 29 with producer Søren Andersen (guitar player in Oliver Weers' solo band) to begin recording its as-yet-untitled new album for a mid-2011 release via Metal Mind Productions.

Commented guitarist Michael Stützer: "ARTILLERY is very excited to start working on the follow-up to 'When Death Comes', which received such a great response from both fans and media.

"It's great to go back to the studio only one-and-a-half years after our last effort to show the fans that ARTILLERY is working very hard to make new recordings and to tour again. And this time it won't take us 10 years to make a new album!

"We feel that the new songs will continue the style and production of our last efforts and we are looking forward to play new songs live for the best and most dedicated fans of metal."

ARTILLERY's fifth album, "When Death Comes", was released in Europe on June 15, 2009 (via Metal Mind Productions) and in Japan on July 23, 2009 (King Records). The CD, which was issued in North America on August 11, 2009 (through MVD),was recorded at Medley with producer Søren Andersen.

Metal Mind Productions released ARTILLERY's "One Foot in the Grave, The Other One in the Trash" DVD on June 16, 2008 in Europe and August 5, 2008 in the USA (via MVD). According to a press release, the DVD features "a fantastic gig the thrash veterans gave at Metalmania Festival 2008. The outstanding guitar play of brothers Stützer, charismatic Carsten Nielsen's powerful drums and the uncompromising thrash energy of Søren Adamsen's voice ruthlessly hammered their way into the hearts of the headbangers assambled on that occasion.
