THE BERZERKER Mainman: 'The New Material Is F*cking Insane'

August 28, 2006

Australia's THE BERZERKER is currently working on its fourth studio album for Earache Records. With 10 tracks currently in demo form, the band is waiting with baited breath to take this material into the studio and record yet another "earth-shattering" album of industrial grindcore.

Working on the new album this time as always is mainman and vocalist Luke Kenny with Jason V (self-titled, "World of Lies"). The two have been collaborating for the past few weeks to outdo all their previous releases and are well on track to destroy some more brain cells with their sonic attack.

"The new material is fucking insane" says Kenny. "I sometimes wonder when we start writing if we really can out-do our other releases. I mean, we have already made some of the fastest, most brutal music on the planet, and when people hear the name THE BERZERKER, they fucking know it! Even to this day, every time we've finished a writing session I listen back. And I'm stopped in my tracks by the sheer ferocity for the music... No one else assaults the listeners with such a barrage of force as we do... This time is war!"

Kenny continues: "I'm bringing back some old-school vocal styles and fucking loving it. It's a crazy time for me at the moment working on all the new material and planning another two weeks of touring in the U.K."

Regarding the upcoming U.K. tour, Kenny says, "We had to come back. The last U.K. tour was so well attended and was so fucking violent. We gave the crowd all the energy we had (and them some) and they took it and fucking threw it back at us... As well as breaking their bodies in the process... I know they want more... And so do we... Get ready. Make your doctors appointments early. 'Cause we coming back in December to make you bleed once more... We don't so much play music as pump out hateful waves of blasting energy from the stage... If you're brave enough we'll see you there... RROOAAGGGHHHH!!!"

Earache expects to release the new album before the end of the year or in early 2007.
