HOLY MOSES: New Song Available For Streaming

September 19, 2008

A new HOLY MOSES track entitled "World in Darkness" is available for streaming at this location. The song comes off the long-running German thrashers' new album, "Agony of Death", which is due on September 29 in Europe (except in Germany, where it will arrive on September 26) and October 7 in the U.S. via Wacken Records/SPV. The CD was recorded at the Blue Castle Studio near Hamburg with producer/guitar player Michael Hankel.

"Agony of Death" will be made available in three different versions, each featuring the songs in a different sequence. The lavish digipack with a fold-out cover will include 12 songs plus all intros and outros in conceptual order. The regular jewel case will consist of ten tracks without intros and outros, or, as Sabina Classen calls it, "without frills and full in the face." The double vinyl edition will feature one intro and one outro per side, "sort of a golden mean between the opulent digipack and the straightforward jewel case," according to a press release. This allows every fan to choose the version they like best.

"Agony of Death" track listing:

01. Imagination
02. Alienation
03. World in Darkness
04. Bloodbound of the Damned
05. Pseudohalluzination
06. Angels In War
07. Schizophrenia
08. Dissociative Disorder
09. The Cave (Paramnesia)
10. Delusional Denial
11. The Retreat
12. Through Shattered Minds

As previously reported, DESTRUCTION, OBITUARY and AXEL RUDI PELL members are among the guest musicians who appear on "Agony of Death". Ferdy Doernberg (AXEL RUDI PELL) contributed keyboards and samples, as well as intros and outros, and played slide guitar on "Through Shattered Minds". Ralph Santolla (OBITUARY, DEATH, ICED EARTH, DEICIDE) delivered a brilliantly haunting guitars solo on "World In Darkness" and "Dissociative Disorder", while "Angels In War" features a solo by his OBITUARY colleague Trevor Peres. Then there are guitar solos courtesy of Janos Murri (DARKSIDE, DEMOLITION) on "Imagination" and "Alienation". The album's renowned background vocalists are Henning Basse (METALIUM) on "Schizophrenia", The Wolf (DARKSIDE, DEMOLITION) on "Imagination" and Schmier (DESTRUCTION, HEADHUNTER) on "The Cave". And last but not least, there's AGENT STEEL's Karlos Medina playing bass on "Imagination".

HOLY MOSES will team up with UK's BENEDICTION for a European co-headlining tour in September/October.
