THE BURNING: 'Rewakening' Artwork Unveiled
January 15, 2009The cover artwork for "Rewakening", the sophomore album from the hard-hitting Danish four-piece THE BURNING, can be viewed below. The image was created by Brazilian artist Mariano Villalba and is a combination of two pictures — "The Fury Of Rufus" and "Slave Angel".
Commented THE BURNING lead singer Johnny Haven: "We been a fan of Mariano's work for a long time, and this cover fits the new more epic songs and the lyrical theme of 'Rewakening' like a glove. And you can never go wrong with an old-school stone logo like that."
"Rewakening" will be released on February 27 through Massacre Records. The follow-up to 2007's "Storm the Walls" was recorded and mixed at KohleKeller Studios with German producer Kristian Kohle Bonifer (BENIGHTED, CREMATORY, ABANDONED, AGATHODAIMON). The vocals was recorded by Jacob Bredahl (ex-HATESPHERE) at Smart N' Hard.
Commented the band: "It's been two years since we wrote and recorded the last album, and obviously we have been honing our skills in that time, but eventhough there are a few surprises and a little more melody on 'Rewakening', we kept true to our roots; heavy aggressive groove metal."
"Rewakening" features a guest appearance by Bo Summer (ILLDISPOSED).
