AS I LAY DYING – enthüllen das neue Cover / reveal new cover

17. März 2010

Deutsch: AS I LAY DYING haben sich erneut mit Jacob Bannon von Converge zusammengetan, welcher das Frontcover für das neue Album The Powerless Rise entworfen hat!

Jacob designte bereits die Cover für die drei bisher auf Metal Blade erschienenen Alben der Band, An Ocean Between Us (2007), Shadows Are Security (2005) und Frail Words Collapse (2003).

Checkt das Artwork für The Powerless Rise HIER aus!

“We wanted to make sure our songwriting progressed and I feel we’ve achieved our goal in creating an album with greater intensity than any we’ve crafted before it,” erklärt AS I LAY DYING Sänger Tim Lambesis. “We added layers and complexity to the melodies and yet we were able to do so without softening our sound like so many of our peers.”

Und weiter: “Lyrically, ‘The Powerless Rise’ includes some of the most straight-forward songs I’ve ever written. I can honestly say that I am more excited about ‘The Powerless Rise’ than any release before it – I can’t wait to unleash it on our fans.”

Nachstehend das vollständige Tracklisting für The Powerless Rise.

Beyond Our Suffering
Anodyne Sea
Without Conclusion
Parallels
The Plague
Anger and Apathy
Condemned
Upside Down Kingdom
Vacancy
The Only Constant Is Change
The Blinding Of False Light

AS I LAY DYING haben The Powerless Rise in San Diego mit Produzent Adam D. (Killswitch Engage) aufgenommen. The Powerless Rise wurde von Colin Richardson (Bullet For My Valentine, Cannibal Corpse, Machine Head, etc…) abgemischt.

The Powerless Rise erscheint Anfangs Mai 2010 via Metal Blade Records.

Live sehen wir AS I LAY DYING dieses Jahr am 18. Juni in Jonschwil, beim Sonisphere Festival!

KING OF ASGARD – neues Metal Blade-Signing / new Metal Blade signing

10. März 2010

Deutsch: Metal Blade Records nehmen die schwedische Viking Folk/Death Metal Band KING OF ASGARD unter Vertrag! Demosong gratis verfügbar!
Metal Blade Records geben hiermit das Signing der schwedischen Viking Folk/Death Metal Band KING OF ASGARD für Europa bekannt.

KING OF ASGARD wurden im Jahre 2008 von Karl Beckman gegründet, nachdem er seine anderen musikalischen Projekte aufgelöst hatte. Er tat sich mit seinem lange verschollenen alten Komplizen Karsten Larsson (FALCONER) zusammen, mit dem er schon gemeinsam in der Wikingerhorde Mithotyn gewütet hatte. Nach jahrelanger Trennung war schnell klar, dass beide zurück zu ihren Wurzeln gehen wollten. Sowohl musikalisch als auch textlich, was sich auf das nordische Erbe bezieht, welches sie in ihren Texten weitertragen.

Die Kreativität schoß nur so aus ihnen heraus und eine Vielzahl an Stücken wurde geschrieben. 2009 begaben sich KING OF ASGARD schließlich ins Lotang Studio, um dort ihr erstes Demo, den 7-Tracker ‘Prince Of Märings’, einzuspielen, mit welchem man den Metal Blade Deal perfekt machte. Ende 2009 stieß noch J. Albrektsson zu den beiden hinzu und machte das Line-up komplett.

Momentan nehmen KING OF ASGARD ihr noch unbetiteltes Debütalbum in den Sonic Train Studios mit Andy La Rocque (KING DIAMOND) an den Reglern auf. Ziel der Band ist es, das Studio mit zwölf schwer nach Folk müffelnden Songs, die tief im Extrem-Metal wurzeln und die alten Zeiten heraufbeschwören, zu verlassen.

KING OF ASGARD kommentieren den Metal Blade Deal wie folgt: “King of Asgard are very proud being signed under the banners of Metal Blade Records. Releasing records under such influential label will be an honour and we feel our future collaboration will be nothing but grandiose. We are very keen on seeing what this can bring us. So teaming up with Brian, Andreas and the rest of the Blade-staff is something we’re easily throwing ourselves into and we’re eagerly devoted on getting our debut out and heads rolling. Lets see if we can create a winter of three!”

In KING OF ASGARD sind Mitglieder solch illustrer Gruppen wie Mithotyn, Falconer, Thy Primordial, Indungeon und Dawn aktiv.

KING OF ASGARD:
Karl Beckman  guitar, vocals
Jonas Albrektsson  bass
Karsten Larsson  drums

Auf der Myspace Seite von KING OF ASGARD könnt ihr eine Demoversion von The Last Journey anchecken!

Das KING OF ASGARD Albumdebüt wird später im Jahr veröffentlicht, weitere Infos hierzu in Kürze!

    

English: Metal Blade Records signs Swedish Viking Folk/Death Metal band KING OF ASGARD! Free demo song available!
Metal Blade Records is proud to announce the signing of Swedish Viking Folk/Death Metal band KING OF ASGARD for the European territory.

KING OF ASGARD was formed in 2008 by Karl Beckman (ex-MITHOTYN) after dissolving his latest musical projects. Teaming up with long time absent fellow worker, Karsten Larsson (FALCONER), once accomplice in the defunct vikinghorde MITHOTYN. As a result, after years apart, the decision was made to go back to their roots both musically as well as heading for their Norse heritage in lyrical approach.

With creativity flowing, numerous songs were written and KING OF ASGARD recorded their 7-track demo Prince Of Märing at Lotang Studio that finally led to the deal with Metal Blade Records. In late 2009 Jonas Albrektsson joined the ranks on bass to strengthen the line-up further.

As we speak, KING OF ASGARD are busy recording their yet untitled debut album at Sonic Train Studio with Andy La Rocque (KING DIAMOND) at the helm. The scheme is to leave the studio with twelve dirty folk-stinking songs mould in extreme metal, reminding of times of old.

Comments KING OF ASGARD on the record deal with Metal Blade Records: “King of Asgard are very proud being signed under the banners of Metal Blade Records. Releasing records under such influential label will be an honour and we feel our future collaboration will be nothing but grandiose. We are very keen on seeing what this can bring us. So teaming up with Brian, Andreas and the rest of the Blade-staff is something we’re easily throwing ourselves into and we’re eagerly devoted on getting our debut out and heads rolling. Lets see if we can create a winter of three!”

KING OF ASGARD is featuring members of acts such as Mithotyn, Falconer, Thy Primordial, Indungeon and Dawn.

Karl Beckman – guitar, vocals
Jonas Albrektsson – bass
Karsten Larsson – drums
