AVULSED To Re-Record Classic Songs For 20th-Anniversary Compilation

February 15, 2011

Veteran Spanish death metallers AVULSED will celebrate their 20th anniversary this year by re-recording 18 of the band's "best" songs for a CD entitled "Fleshcube".

According to a press release, "Instead of just doing a compilation with the original recordings (that would be too easy and cheap),[AVULSED] decided to re-record all these songs with the current line-up, the current guitar sound (way heavier than before),their current drummer (who has empowered the playing of the songs) and in general, the usual modifications that each song suffers after being played for years and years. In resume, it'll be an album with only the best songs of the band. No fillers, just classics!! A special limited edition will be released, most probably a box containing a double CD, exclusive shirt, stickers, photos and other goodies, limited to the first ones to come, but it's still undecided how it'll be."

AVULSED is currently working on material for its sixth full-length album with the working title of "Ritual Zombi". The CD, which is tentatively due to be recorded in 2012, "will serve to introduce the zombie element into AVULSED's lyrics to make them not just brutal, gore and macabre, but fucking horrifying as well," according to a press release.

In late 2010, AVULSED recorded a cover of BLACK SABBATH's classic "Neon Knights" for an upcoming double tribute CD to Ronnie James Dio featuring some of the most relevant Spanish metal bands. AVULSED is the only death metal band on this compilation and the group's contribution is said to be "the heaviest and most brutal song on the whole tribute."
