SAMAEL Begins Recording New Album
August 10, 2010Three weeks after returning from Germany where the band spent time going over every new song with longtime collaborator Waldemar Sorychta (MOONSPELL, LACUNA COIL, TIAMAT, GRIP INC.),Swiss industrial black metallers SAMAEL are ready to record their new album. The sessions officially start today (August 10) and should last an entire month. Regular updates will be posted on the band's official Twitter profile.
SAMAEL's latest album, "Above" (2009),entered the German Media Control chart at position No. 99.
In an interview with Beyond the Dark Horizon, SAMAEL's Vorph stated about "Above", "It is like an enhanced version of our three or four first albums, maybe the missing link between 'Ceremony of Opposites' and "Passage". With the 'Era One' project we've tried to work on different influences, [and] with 'Above' we stripped everything down. It is a metal album through and through. . . 'Above' is a little bit of a tribute to our early years as a band and to our first influences. If you listen to our two last albums, you can tell our roots go beyond that but 'Above' is a good résumé of what pushed us to start playing music in the first place."
