CHIMAIRA Book Studio Time For DEATH Tribute
March 8, 2004CHIMAIRA will be entering Spider Studios on March 22 to record some music from the DEATH albums "Symbolic" and "Human" for the upcoming tribute CD "Within The Mind - In Homage To The Musical Legacy Of Chuck Schuldiner". Legendary guitarist James Murphy (TESTAMENT, DEATH, OBITUARY) will be handling the production duties alongside CHIMAIRA. Commented CHIMAIRA singer Mark Hunter, "Not only is this an honor for us, but it is very personal to me. Without Chuck's music, I would not be singing today.
