October 12, 2010Finnish melodic death metallers NORTHER have entered Astia Studios with producer Anssi Kippo (CHILDREN OF BODOM) to begin recording their sixth full-length album, "Circle Regenerated", for an early 2011 release via Century Media Records.
Check out photos from the studio at this location.
NORTHER and the German edition of Metal Hammer magazine have teamed up to give you the chance to create the artwork "Circle Regenerated".
Commented the band: "This time we wanted to do something different with our upcoming album artwork. We wanted to involve our fans in a creative way! Therefore we've decided to team up with Metal Hammer Germany to announce an open competition — to design our next album cover art!
"If you have a steady hand and can draw or paint like Da Vinci, take part and submit your work to our label Century Media until October 15th. We and the Century Media guys will select the top 10 candidates, who will enter the next stage of the contest which will be a public voting on Century Media's home page. There you'll be able to vote for the best cover artwork until October 31st. The artwork which gets the most votes will be selected as our next album cover.
"In addition to the first prize, Metal Hammer offers some great prizes for the four runner-ups which will include, [in addition] to an exclusive meet-and-greet, tons of other goodies. You can check out the full list at this location.
"Here's also some more info on our upcoming album: It will be named 'Circle Regenerated', so the cover should somehow reflect that theme. To give you some more clues about our band, NORTHER is an old English word and is a 'strong wind blowing from the north.' We've also heard that listening to our music helps getting in the right mood;)
"We are super-excited and expect to see some killer stuff! Let the battle begin!!!"
Please make sure to read the following instructions carefully in order to ensure that your submission will be considered:
* Submit your cover-artwork with your name, address and phone number to: [email protected] (subject line: NORTHER contest) before October 15. The cover artwork must be delivered with the right specifications, which are spelled out at this location.
