VOIVOD Drummer's Artwork Displayed At Montreal Gallery

March 9, 2006

Rupert Bottenberg of MontrealMirror.com has published a report on the split gallery show of the artworks of VOIVOD drummer Michel "Away" Langevin and Montreal's Eric Braün, which is being held in Montreal, Quebec at SubV (5666 Sherbrooke W.) until March 31. Check out the article (which includes photos) at this location.

As previously reported, VOIVOD have set "Katorz" as the title of their forthcoming album, due out late spring on The End Records in North America and Nuclear Blast Records in Europe. "Katorz" has been the working title for the new CD since at least the spring of 2005, according to previously published reports.

VOIVOD, who mixed the album with producer Glen Robinson (ANNIHILATOR, TEA PARTY, GWAR) at Multisons studio in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, mastered the CD in New York.

The follow-up to 2003's "Voivod" is the first album in the band's 20-plus-year career that did not feature 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 "Katorz", Langevin, singer Denis "Snake" Belanger and bassist Jason "Jasonic" Newsted utilized all of the guitar parts that Piggy had recorded for the record on his laptop with ProTools before his death. Artwork and a full track-listing for the album will be released in the coming weeks.
