WATAIN Preparing To Enter Studio

December 22, 2009

Swedish black metallers WATAIN will enter Necromorbus Studio (WATAIN, NOMINON, AVERSE SEFIRA, FUNERAL MIST, MORK GRYNING, ADORIOR) in Alvik, Sweden with longtime producer Tore Stjerna on January 3, 2010 to begin recording their new album for a late spril/early summer release.

In a recent interview with Decibel magazine, WATAIN bassist/vocalist Erik Danielsson stated about the band's decision to record at Necromorbus again, "I'd hate to come to a new studio and have to adapt to a new environment and a new producer. Necromorbus feels as much like home as our rehearsal place does. We are free to do what we want there and that is important as we always lock ourselves up in the studio during the recordings. Album recordings are holy to us, and that usually means rather chaotic and eventful days and nights of blood, fire and death."

An interview with WATAIN aired on Swedish national television (SVT) as part of a series of documentaries which aim to investigate horror from a cultural perspective as it discusses the influence, inspirations and importance of horror through out the arts. The Swedish black metal band is featured in episode 7 in the series, titled "Skräckministeriet" ("The Ministry Of Horror")

WATAIN is confirmed for next year's Maryland Deathfest, set to take place May 28-30, 2010 at Sonar in Baltimore.

The band's third full-length album, "Sworn To The Dark", was released in February 2007 via Season of Mist.
