AT THE GATES' TOMAS LINDBERG Performs DEATH Classic With PENTAGRAM CHILE (Video)

May 6, 2014

AT THE GATES frontman Tomas "Tompa" Linderg joined PENTAGRAM CHILE on stage on April 26 at The Metal Fest in Santiago, Chile to perform the song "Sacrophobia" and a cover of the DEATH classic "Evil Dead". Video footage of his appearance can be seen below.

PENTAGRAM CHILE's first-ever studio album, "The Malefice", was released last September via Germany's Cyclone Empire Records. Drums for the CD were tracked at Sade Studios in Santiago, Chile, while all guitars and vocals were recorded at HVR Studios in Suffolk, U.K., where the album was mixed by vocalist/guitarist Anton Reisenegger with longtime friend, collaborator, co-producer and studio owner Daniel Biggin. The cover artwork is an illustration by renowned Argentinian artist Santiago Caruso.

"The Malefice" was made available in three different formats: double gatefold vinyl, double CD digipak and regular jewel case CD.

While the main part of the album consists of all-new material written by founding members Reisenegger and Juan Pablo Uribe (lead guitar) over the previous two years, the band also re-recorded their classic demo material from the 1980s.

While the PENTAGRAM drum throne was taken over by veteran Chilean drummer Juan Pablo Donoso (SADISM, EXECRATOR, THRONAFIRE) after original member Eduardo Topelberg left the band (he is now a local politician for the Ñuñoa district of Santiago),bass duties on the album were split between various musicians. Besides the band's touring bassists Juan Francisco Cueto and Daniel Biggin, the band also invited longtime friend Rodrigo "Pera" Cuadra of DORSO to record the bass on one song, as well as to re-do the evil laughter he originally contributed to the demo version of the track "The Malefice".

Another bassist to guest on the album is Mauricio Peña, brother of original PENTAGRAM bassist Alfredo "Bey" Peña, who committed suicide in 1990.
