IN VIRTUE Begins Recording New Album

February 25, 2010

California power metallers IN VIRTUE have entered the studio to begin recording their new full-length album, "Embrace the Horror", for a late 2010 release via an as-yet-undetermined record label. The follow-up to last year's "Delusions of Grandeur" will be a loose concept album about the end of the world and will contain about 12 songs. The band has already laid down the drum tracks at Prairie Sun Recording studios in Cotati, California with engineer Jason D'Ottavio (Shrapnel Records) and will be recording the remaining tracks over the next several months.

Says guitarist and composer Trey Xavier, "This album has been a long time coming. We've been sitting on these songs for over a year and now we get to do it right. These are our fastest and heaviest songs to date, and I am confident that this album will be a treat for fans of all kinds of metal."

IN VIRTUE formed in 2004 at Sonoma State University when four friends with a love for fast and heavy music recruited a lady to sing lead. Soon the IN VIRTUE sound was born, a blend of finely composed melodic power metal and death metal.

IN VIRTUE endeavors to blend catchy melody and anthemic choruses with aggressive energy and brutal symmetry to create balanced musical fusion.
