Belphegor - Working On New Material


Original news, posted on 28.03.2010

Austrian metallers Belphegor have issued the short following update on their official website:

"Yeah it's great to return to Norway and play the Inferno Festival again. We start the rehearsals on Monday. Expect an intense blood-convent and blasting hellfire. Time for the next chapter. We just finished the second rehearsing session for the new album. Currently we're working on six brachial sound-collages. We will be recording, mixing, and mastering the as of yet untitled album in Sweden this time around."


UPDATE (thanks to BudDa)

Belphegor will enter The Abyss Studios in Pärbly, Sweden on June 19, to start recording the drums. The band has tapped Peter Tägtgren ( Immortal, Celtic Frost, Hypocrisy, Dimmu Borgir...) to produce their new, as of yet untitled album.

Belphegor´s main man Helmuth comments: "A new challenge. We're high on fire and totally motivated. I'm stoked to work together with a dude that needs no instruction, an excellent musician/producer. I´m sure that Peter will create a massive soundwall for our ninth long player. We are absolutely focused on the new album. That's the only reason why we play only a few open airs this summer. The masterplan is to record again in 4/5 sessions til middle of September. Once again letting the tracks slowly take form, with the songwriting and production reaching a new level of intensity."

Commented Peter Tägtgren: "I am really looking forward to producing/mixing the new Belphegor album. It's going to be a blast; You better be prepared."

Bass shredder Serpenth adds: "On Friday we will start the fifth rehearsal session - day 24 - for the upcoming album, which lasts til Tuesday. We will fine tune eight compositions out of nine. It's going to be an epic - brachial Belphegor album, more shredding, more magic, more of everything."

Expect an early 2011 release through Nuclear Blast Records.

Got Mayhem?

That didn't take long. They should really take alot of time to go get some inspiration and look at some art or whatever and come up with something that doesn't sound exactly the same as everything else they've done.

Their previous two releases were very...average, and Pestapokalypse was only slightly better. Mayhem is right, these guys should take a step back and wait before releasing something new, and maybe they'll come up with a true follow-up to Goatreich.

Maybe a change of label is called for. This reminds me of Deicide pumping out the same shit for a few years before they changed labels and were able to finally shelve out something worthwhile with The Stench....

You guys got it right , I thought the same thing when I saw the news. You can have quality if you set up and record music in just a few months. IMO

Bands should not be allowed to release one album every year, seriously, save a very few ones.

Take a break, write something that doesn't bore me. I've lost quite a lot of interest in these guys over the past 2 releases.

They are touring a lot more now. It's seams only natural that they can't find time to write anything unique when they are being rushed off to other countries to perform. Financial security is important, and this is their profession. Some things have to take some hits. It's a shame it might be their quality.
