PESTILENCE: 'Malleus Malficarum' To Be Re-Released

April 28, 2008

Poland's Metal Mind Productions will re-release the classic debut album from the legendary Dutch death/thrash metal act PESTILENCE, "Malleus Malficarum" (1988),on May 19 in Europe (July 8 in the USA via MVD). The limited-edition digipack title (limited to 2,000 copies) will be made available on golden disc, digitally remastered using 24-bit technology.

Guitarist/vocalist Patrick Mameli has set "Resurrection Macabre" as the title of the new album from the reactivated PESTILENCE, tentatively due in early 2009 via Holland's Mascot Records. Joining Mameli in the group's new recording lineup are Tony Choy (ATHEIST, CYNIC) on bass and Peter Wildoer (DARKANE, NON-HUMAN LEVEL) on drums. Patrick is currently working on new material which he has described as a modern fusion of "Testimony of the Ancients" (1991) and "Spheres" (1993),but even more technical and brutal. The group's new album will tentatively be recorded this fall by Danish producer Jacob Hansen (RAUNCHY, INVOCATOR) and produced by Patrick himself.
