DETONATION To Enter Studio This Weekend

August 17, 2009

Dutch death/thrash metal act DETONATION will enter the studio this weekend to begin recording the follow-up to 2007's "Emission Phase". Vocalist Koen Romeijn states, "Michiel [van der Plicht] will kick off the pre-production of our fourth studio album. He's got the weekend scheduled to record all the drum tracks for nine new, brutal songs. In the producer's chair, we have our good friend Harry van Breda (I-CHAOS).

"After this, Michiel will start touring across the world with GOD DETHRONED until mid-November. So in the meantime, we will work on the recordings, and get this thing rolling again.

"Can't wait to get into that whole recording process again; it's been almost three years since we recorded 'Emission Phase', so it's about time, goddamnit!

"So what can I tell you about the new stuff? Well, first of all, it's fucking brutal! You could say that we changed our sound into something new. It still has DETONATION written all over it, but this stuff is way more intense, faster, more metal and just better sounding than before. Michiel's drums are sick, Mike's riffs even sicker, and my vocals the sickest I have ever produced, haha!

"Some of the songtitles are 'Feeding On The Madness', 'Ruptured', 'Insults To My Heritage' and 'The Thirst To Slaughter'."

Video footage of DETONATION's March 7, 2009 performance at the Music Against Cancer concert at Hedon in Zwolle, Holland can be viewed below (clip uploaded by "ErhanLiveMetal").

"Emission Phase" was released on April 30, 2007. The CD was recorded with Split Second Sound's Jochem Jacobs (also guitar player for TEXTURES) and Bouke Visser. The cover artwork was created by Eliran Kantor.

"Emission Phase" was DETONATION's third and final album for French underground label Osmose Productions.
