THANATOS To Enter Studio In June

Long-running Dutch death/thrash metal band THANATOS will enter Excess Studios in Rotterdam in late June to record two songs that will be used for future releases. The band will record a new version of the classic THANATOS track "And Jesus Wept" (originally featured on 1992's "Realm of Ecstasy") plus a blistering version of the DARK ANGEL classic "The Burning of Sodom".

THANATOS are currently busy writing new songs for their fifth full-length album, to be recorded before the end of the year. The group's fourth album, "Undead. Unholy. Divine", was released last summer through Greece's Black Lotus Records. The follow-up to 2000's "Angelic Encounters", "Undead. Unholy. Divine" was produced by Hans Pieters and the band at Excess Studios and was mastered by Attie Bauw (JUDAS PRIEST, SCORPIONS, GOREFEST).
