WORLD UNDER BLOOD Debut To Include MEGADETH Cover
August 19, 2009WORLD UNDER BLOOD, the melodic death metal side project featuring CKY guitarist/vocalist Deron Miller alongside Tim Yeung (DIVINE HERESY, VITAL REMAINS, HATE ETERNAL) on drums, Risha Eryavec (DECREPIT BIRTH) on bass, and Luke Jaeger on guitar, is planning to resume recording its debut album, tentatively titled "Tactical", in the next couple of months for an April 2010 release via Nuclear Blast Records. Deron says, "I'm shooting [to have] nine originals and MEGADETH's 'Wake Up Dead' [on the CD], but you know me — I don't like to overload records with quantity over quality." He adds, "The new songs are killer and I'm looking forward to jamming with Tim again in the next few weeks as well as working with Luke on his solos and [guitarist-turned-producer] James Murphy [DEATH, TESTAMENT, OBITUARY] on recording."
Murphy, who mixed some of WORLD UNDER BLOOD's early demo recordings, stated about the project, "WORLD UNDER BLOOD bridge a gap between genres that has never been bridged.... a few have tried with mixed results, but this is the first real resounding success of fusing brutal, blasting death metal with a melodic American rock vibe and it opens a door that will turn into a floodgate... I'm very happy to have been picked by Deron to mix this project ... he really pulls it together on this one musically and Tim's performance is stellar as well."
Deron Miller is widely credited for conceiving the long-awaited DEATH tribute project, "Within The Mind - In Homage To The Musical Legacy Of Chuck Schuldiner", as a means to help James Murphy raise money for his medical bills (Murphy is currently receiving treatment for a massive brain tumor with which he was diagnosed in August 2001).
The project, which has the blessing of the family of late DEATH mastermind Chuck Schuldiner (who passed away in December 2001 after a battle with pontine glioma, a rare type of brain tumor),has been in the works for the last few years and is expected to feature a number of special guest appearances, including those by members of SLIPKNOT, NEVERMORE, FEAR FACTORY, STATIC-X, and MALEVOLENT CREATION.
