But like, I get mad, you know, on Mabool the Jews were the snakes, and now, the dosim are kneeling… bleh. Can’t you get some priests up in there kneeling instead? Why dosim? And like, if anyone ever doubted Kobi Farhi had a Jesus complex, I mean, well, hey..

So saith Century Media, “Swedish melodic death metal masters DARK TRANQUILLITY have finished the recordings of their ninth studio album, “We Are The Void”, which is going to be released via Century Media Records March 9, 2010

The band’s follow-up 2007’s “Fiction” was recorded at DARK TRANQUILLITY’s very own Rogue Music studio and mixed and mastered by Tue Madsen at Antfarm Studio in Denmark.

To follow the creation of this superb melodic death metal opus none less than Anders Björler (The Haunted, At The Gates) filmed a detailed studio report series which will be launched in the coming weeks. Episode 1 is up now, so check it out!”

Respect to Maor Appelbaum and Eliran Kantor – Extreme Japanese Metal SIGH

L’art de Mourir, a brand new song from the Japanese extreme metal band SIGH, is available for streaming on the group’s MySpace page. The track comes off SIGH’s eighth studio album, “Scenes From Hell”, which is scheduled for release on January 19, 2010 via The End Records. The CD’s cover artwork was designed by Eliran Kantor (TESTAMENT, AGHORA, TO-MERA, GWAR, SICKENING HORROR) and can be viewed below (courtesy of MetalSucks). The group states, “We’re truly proud of the artwork. This is the perfect description of what the album is about — namely war, hell and death!”

SIGH’s Mirai Kawashima recently stated about “Scenes From Hell”, “We were supposed to finish mixing it by the end of June, but it was not easy at all. Of course I knew it’d be tough to mix all those orchestral instruments properly, but it was much harder than expected. The brass section sounds very powerful by itself. Guitar, bass and drums sound powerful enough by themselves. However, once all are mixed, they could often kill each other’s powerfulness! After having gone through numerous trials and errors, we finally succeeded in getting the proper result. And the album has been mastered by Maor Appelbaum, who also mastered our tribute to VENOM. He has worked with such artists as Yngwie Malmsteen and Rob Halford, so he knows how to master the metal stuff! ‘Scenes from Hell’ definitely sounds powerful, symphonic and relentless. This is the musical description of hell!”

“Scenes From Hell” final track listing:

01. Prelude to the Oracle
02. L’art de Mourir
03. The Soul Grave
Musica in Tempora Belli
04. The Red Funeral
05. The Summer Funeral
06. Musica in Tempora Belli
07. Vanitas
08. Scenes from Hell
