The song "We Who Worship The Black" is now available for streaming on the band's Facebook page.

The band comments on the track as follows: "'God Of Emptiness' from MORBID ANGEL is a huge influence on my writing as it has the most mind-blowing riffs that I heard as well as well-crafted drums and amazing vocals, in my eyes. I can't count the number of time that I sat down to compose and said to myself, 'Oh yeah, man, this will be our 'God Of Emptiness' song,' hehe. It took us three months to write the whole piece. It was a short but very intense time that I wrote night and day every day of the week. I enjoyed every minute of it."

SONNE ADAM is:

Dahan: Vocals, Bass
Davidov: Guitar
Mayer: Guitar
Steel: Drums

The history of SONNE ADAM (which roughly translates into "hate humanity" in Hebrew) dates back to 2007 when a young Israeli duo consisting of Davidov (all instruments) and Dahan (vocals) started a musical project to create "death metal in the vein of early PARADISE LOST but with a more shamelessly evil and blasphemous touch and some MORBID ANGEL thrown in the mix." The band's first recording was an EP titled "The Sun Is Dead" (which so far remains unreleased),followed by another EP called "Armed With Hammers", which caught the attention of underground label Imperium Productions from Germany, which subsequently released it on seven-inch vinyl in 2010. The resulting underground buzz culminated in renowned German magazine Rock Hard naming it "Demo Of The Month" and predicting the band to become a hot topic among all death metal maniacs.

After seeing SONNE ADAM developing into an amazing, highly promising underground act, Century Media Records picked them up for the release of the band's debut album, "Transformation", in cooperation with Imperium Productions, which will handle the album's vinyl version.

The cornerstones of SONNE ADAM's sound are heavy, downtuned, diverse and all-consuming lava-esque riffs, unholy, triumphant vocals, thundering drums and a song-writing filled to the brim with fascinating twist and turns. Combined with metaphorical, dark and blasphemous lyrics, "Transformation" ultimately stands out from the mass as an authentic, occult and earnest metal opus that leaves nothing to desire and should find many new supporters among extreme metalheads worldwide. It's an album that propagates originality implying respect for the original precursors and creative ingenuity in equal measure. It's damn great dark death metal, plain and simple…
