SPIRITUAL BEGGARS Issue Studio Update

March 20, 2010

SPIRITUAL BEGGARS, the Swedish band featuring ARCH ENEMY guitarist Michael Amott and bassist Sharlee D'Angelo, has issued the following update:

"Yes, it's been a long time coming — but we have finally got ourselves back into the studio to record the follow-up to our last studio album, 'Demons' (2005).

"What's five years between friends? :)

"It's been a busy few weeks here in the BEGGARS camp... We started with a week of pre-production rehearsals with the whole band and got all the songs nice and tight, ready and rockin'! We then relocated to Sweetspot Studio and started tracking drums with our producer, Rickard Bengtsson. Ludwig Witt (drums) nailed it in four days and we swiftly moved on to rhythm guitars and bass tracks and finished off with a lead guitar session!

"Needless to say, we used a lot of vintage equipment in this process and we got some really amazing tones.

"The studio itself has really excellent acoustics and that shows in the fantastic drum sound we captured… big, bold and natural!

"To describe the music itself, we feel the songs are strong and melodic with a lot of '70s and early '80s hard rock atmosphere…

"If you are a fan of our albums 'On Fire' and 'Demons', we are pretty sure you will also enjoy this next chapter…

"We'll pick up the work on the record again in April for vocals and keyboards..."

SPIRITUAL BEGGARS' last album, "Demons", was released in Europe in June 2005 via InsideOut Music. The follow-up to 2002's "On Fire" was recorded at Slaughterhouse Studio with Rickard Bengtsson and was mixed by Fredrik Nordström and Patrik J. Sten at Studio Fredman in Gothenburg, Sweden. Mastering duties were handled by Göran Finnberg. The album cover art was conceived by Niklas Sundin of Cabin Fever Media.
