EPHEL DUATH Joined By Drummer MARCO MINNEMANN

December 20, 2007

International drumming sensation Marco Minnemann will join Italian experimental jazz metallers EPHEL DUATH during the recording sessions for the group's new album, "Through My Dog's Eyes".

Minnemann is recognized as one of the top drummers in the world, having performed with H-BLOCKX, Terry Bozzio, Chad Wackerman, Mike Keneally, Bryan Beller and the BUDDY RICH BIG BAND. He also took in part in this year's Summer Slaughter Tour as the drummer for NECROPHAGIST.

"Through My Dog's Eyes" will be a concept album in which a dog depicts his vision of various aspects of life, from casual things like nightmares or walks to deeper issues such as accepting death and the rules of nature that are unavoidable.

Talking about the concept behind "Through My Dog's Eyes", guitarist Davide previously stated, "Lyrics-wise, it is a first person narrative in the shape of various short novels. We are in no way attempting to prove any sort of superiority or draw a parallel between man and animal. All we intend to do is capture the essence of how we think dogs see life, hence the use of the first person, and all of this being speculation means that the texts deal with sheer fantasy. We'll push people to think about this concept as an ode to one of the animals with the most humanity in the eyes."

"Through My Dog's Eyes" will follow the release of the remix album, "Pain Remixes The Known", which came out on July 23.
