MASTER Completes Recording New Album

December 23, 2009

Legendary death metallers MASTER have completed recording their tenth full-length album, entitled "The Human Machine", for an early 2010 release via Pulverised Records.

Commented MASTER founder/frontman Paul Speckmann: "MASTER are in the studio mixing and mastering soon. Things are going very well at the moment. We hope to finish this in the next few days.

"I am very happy with the way things have turned out and it will be killer to finally have a CD released once again on a professional label such as Pulverised.

"Things look very good on the horizon, with Brazil and European tours coming soon."

Added Pulverised Records A&R manager Calvin: "Paul sent me two blistering tracks from the upcoming new MASTER album last night and I was absolutely blown away by how much authentic brutality that they still retain, coming from a band with an almost-30-year history. Nothing much has changed, and if [anything], this is probably more old-school, ferocious and even more death metal than their previous few efforts. It is exactly how fans of MASTER would imagine the new album to be, and no one will be disappointed!"

"The Human Machine" artwork is being created by Israeli artist Eliran Kantor (TESTAMENT, AGHORA, TO-MERA, GWAR, SICKENING HORROR).

In a recent interview with U.K.'s Terrorizer magazine, Speckmann stated about the forthcoming CD, "It will sound like MASTER always do: killer and aggressive. I suppose you'll have to wait and see. It will definitely be an original MASTER album. We never change for the trends as most of the successful scene does. MASTER still play the same original style we always has since the incarnation of the band in 1983. It certainly surprises me that many of the bands today jump on the current trends, and have success with this. For me there is nothing like the original bands."

Regarding the new CD title, Speckmann said, "People have become slaves to the greater machine called the government in every city of the world and it's a real pity to see this bullshit. Big Brother gets stronger with every waking moment and soon freedom for the masses will be a thing of the past as George Orwell predicted in 1984. Soon the masses will have a rebellion or it's finished."

MASTER will embark on a Brazilian tour in mid-January 2010, followed by two back-to-back European tours in support of the new CD.

MASTER is:

Paul Speckmann - Vocals, Bass
Alex Nejezchleba - Guitar
Zdenek Pradlovsky - Drums
