ASSASSIN Taps Producer HARRIS JOHNS For New Album

Reactivated German thrashers ASSASSIN will release their new album, "Breaking The Silence", in February 2011 via SPV/Steamhammer Records. The CD was recorded with veteran metal producer Harris Johns, who has previously worked with VOIVOD, KREATOR and SODOM, among many others.

In other news, ASSASSIN's spring 2010 concerts in Japan were professionally filmed for a future DVD release.

As previously reported, SPV/Steamhammer will also reissue ASSASSIN's classic LPs, 1987's "The Upcoming Terror" and 1988's "Interstellar Experience".

ASSASSIN reunited in 2002 and performed at the 2003 edition of the Wacken Open Air festival.

The band's third album, "The Club", was self-produced and self-released in 2005.
