VOIVOD Drummer Launches Daily Studio Blog

January 5, 2006

VOIVOD drummer Michel "Away" Langevin has commenced work on drum tracks for the band's much-anticipated new studio album with producer Glen Robinson (VOIVOD's "Nothingface", TEA PARTY, GWAR, ANNIHILATOR) at Piccolo Studios in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

The drummer recently started a blog about the studio work that will include studio updates, tidbits and photos. Away will update the blog on a frequent basis. To access the blog, click here.

This is the first album in the band’s 20+ year career that will not feature founding guitarist Denis "Piggy" D'Amour working alongside his bandmembers in the studio. D'Amour died August 26, 2005 in a Montreal hospital from complications of advanced colon cancer.

In order to record the album Away — along with singer Denis "Snake" Belanger and bassist Jason "Jasonic" Newsted — are utilizing all of the guitar parts that Piggy had recorded for the record on his laptop with ProTools before his death.

VOIVOD's as-yet-untitled new album should surface sometime later this year on The End Records in North America.
