MISERATION Announces New Bassist

Sweden's MISERATION — the collaboration between SCAR SYMMETRY vocalist Christian Älvestam and Jani Stefanovic (ESSENCE OF SORROW, DIVINEFIRE) — has announced the addition of bassist Christian Lundgren to the group's ranks. The band states, "Lundgren has been a friend of Christian for a long time and they have played together in several bands throughout the years. Next to MISERATION, they're currently both a part of QUEST OF AIDANCE as well."

MISERATION is currently recording its third album for a tentative early summer release via Lifeforce Records.

MISERATION's "Dreamdecipher" video can be viewed below. The clip was directed by Markus Rytilahti of Ekman & Winroth.

"Dreamdecipher" comes off MISERATION's sophomore album, "The Mirroring Shadow", which was released in November 2009 via Lifeforce Records. The follow-up to "Your Demons - Their Angels" was recorded at Panic Room studios with producer Tomas "Plec" Johansson.

MISERATION previously described "The Mirroring Shadow" as "a step up, intensity- and aggression-wise," and "more technical than its predecessor." The band added, "This progression both came and felt very natural to us, once the new material started to take shape. Sound-wise, producer Tomas 'Plec' Johansson has really outdone himself on this one, giving the music a productional enviroment to die for! Crushingly pounding, yet crystal clear!"

MISERATION's debut album, "Your Demons, Their Angels", was released in September 2008.

MISERATION is:

Christian Älvestam - Vocals
Marcus "Skägget" Bertilsson - Guitar
Jani Stefanovic - Guitar
Oscar Nilsson - Drums
Christian Lundgren - Bass
