INSISION Parts Ways With Guitarist

December 16, 2010

Swedish death metallers INSISION have parted ways with guitarist Magnus Martinsson due to his "involvement and focus on other bands and projects" and have recruited death metal/jazz-influenced axeman Tobias Alpadie as a session member.

Commented Tobias: "Since their release of 'Beneath The Folds Of Flesh' I've been a fan of INSISION and feel honored that the band wants me as a session member. I really feel stoked about this and can't wait to start rehearsing with the guys in the next couple of weeks. Hopefully everything will turn out just great."

INSISION recently inked a deal with the U.S. label Sevared Records. The band's new EP was recorded at Off Beat Studio in Stockholm with engineer Anders Eriksson and is scheduled for release in early 2011. The group states, "It has been brutal and fun working with this new material and we're all excited about the release. We felt a need to get it out there while writing our next full-length album, mainly for the fans supporting us down the years as it has been just too fucking long since our last release. But now finally, we're here. This time it's going to be a five-track release, giving you four completely new killer tracks, the fifth bonus track being a remake of a song from our early days. It's just a brutal beating, a package delivering brutal and aggressive death metal, the INSISION way, of course!! This one will break your necks for sure!!"

Commented Sevared Records in a statement: "Sevared Records is very honored to sign the mighty INSISION!! I personally have been a huge fan of this incredible band since the first mini-CD. I'm extremely excited to release the new mini-CD and the following full-length CD, I know these brutal death metal veterans will crush every fan of brutal death metal skulls in!! And finally get the recognition of brutality they deserve!!"

INSISION's third album, "Ikon", was released in Europe on September 26, 2007 via Dental Records. The CD was recorded at Black Lounge studios (SCAR SYMMETRY, CENTINEX) in Avesta, Sweden. Mick Usher, who worked on INSISION's previous album, "Revealed & Worshipped", designed the new CD cover.

Bassist Daniel Ekeroth left INSISION in May 2009 and was replaced by Joel Andersson, who previously played with IMMERSED IN BLOOD.

INSISION is:

Carl Birath - Vocals
Roger Johansson - Guitar
Tobias Alpadie - Session Guitar
Joel Andersson - Bass
Marcus Jonsson - Drums
