FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE Answers Fan-Submitted Questions - Part 3

August 4, 2011

Tommaso Riccardi, Cristiano Trionfera and Francesco Paoli of Italian brutal/symphonic horde FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE recently answered a number of questions sent in by fans via Facebook and Twitter. Part three of the question-and-answer session can be seen below.

"The Violation", the new Salvatore Perrone-directed video from FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE, can be viewed below. The song comes off the band's second full-length album, "Agony", which is scheduled for release on August 9 via Nuclear Blast Records. The CD's intricate cover design was handled by Marco Hasmann, who previously worked with the band on the "Mafia" and "Oracles" releases.

"Agony" track listing:

01. Temptation
02. The Hypocrisy
03. The Imposition
04. The Deceit
05. The Violation
06. The Egoism
07. The Betrayal
08. The Forsaking
09. The Oppression
10. Agony
11. Heartwork (CARCASS cover; iTunes exclusive bonus track)

Commented the group: "The album cover is about the eternal struggle of mankind; we're condemned to live facing our evil side, which dwells in every one of us. We are like tied to the ground, forced in chains that can't be broken, so the man in the cover is representing all humanity and its eternal agony, knowing that it's almost impossible to liberate ourselves from the obscurity of our nature. Unless we decide to admit to ourselves who we are and face our doom, that would be the only way to free our kind and rise to an higher conscience, someday."

With only two releases, "Oracles" (2009) and the "Mafia" EP (2010),and a successful U.S. debut tour alongside SUFFOCATION and THE FACELESS under its belt, FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE has already become one of the most talked about bands in the underground. Their unique blend of technical death metal with symphonic elements has quickly made them a favorite with fans and critics alike.

FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE is:

Tommaso Riccardi - Lead Vocals, Guitars
Paolo Rossi - Vocals, Bass
Cristiano Trionfera - Vocals, Guitars
Francesco Paoli - Drums, Guitars and Vocals
Francesco Ferrini - Piano, Orchestra

FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE's last full-length CD, "Oracles", was recorded in May 2008 at 16th Cellar Studio.
