RESURRECTION: New Album Delayed; DEATH FEAST OPEN AIR Festival Appearance Cancelled
May 8, 2008Tampa death metallers and former Nuclear Blast recording artists RESURRECTION, who had moderate success with their debut album "Embalmed Existence" (1993),have had the European release date of their new album, "Mistaken for Dead", pushed back once again this time to June 27 (via Massacre Records). The CD will be available as a limited-edition digipack (Europe only) with bonus material. The record will be handled in North America by Locomotive Records.
Commented the band: "Dan Seagrave did the cover art which is very unique and strange for a death metal band, but its strength is in its weirdness and it is an actual canvas painting that is an original custom made for us."
"Mistaken for Dead" contains nine songs and will be enhanced with a three-part DVD segment featuring footage on the making of the album, interviews, funny stuff, on-the-road material, live shots, and vintage footage. The album will also include a professionally shot video for the song "Buried Alive" which was filmed in Tampa.
The CD was mixed by Mark Lewis at AudioHammer studios in Sanford, Florida. Mark's credits include TRIVIUM, THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER, CHIMAIRA and BURY YOUR DEAD, among others.
"Mistaken for Dead" track listing:
01. Buried Alive
02. Unholy
03. A Thirst For Flesh
04. Coward
05. X-ile
06. The Deciever
07. Ritual Slaughter
08. Death By Desire
