Goatwhore: New Album Details Revealed[views:17441][posts:13]________________________________ [Apr 23,2009 1:26am - zyklon ""] GOATWHORE — the New Orleans-based band featuring vocalist L. Ben Falgoust II (SOILENT GREEN) and guitarist Sammy Duet (ACID BATH, CROWBAR) — has set "Carving Out The Eyes of God" as the title of its new studio album, due in the U.S. on June 23 via Metal Blade Records. For the follow-up to 2006's "A Haunting Curse", GOATWHORE headed back to St. Petersburg, Florida to record with producer Erik Rutan at Mana Recording Studios, with mastering being handled by Alan Douches of West West Side. Vocalist Ben Falgoust comments on the direction of the new album: "I don't really know how to explain this. I don't want to come off with the typical speech about how this record is our best yet and all of that. I will say that I am quite pleased how it has turned out and all parts relating to it. I feel every member put a great deal of effort into their part of the project. I even feel Erik Rutan busted his ass even more this time to make us feel that we didn't take any steps backwards in the recording and production of this release… I don't even really care what the critics say. I think the end result is basically coming up with something you have put a lot of work into and the satisfaction achieved in completing it. I will say that the new material is ripping metal and we still have that 'GOATWHORE' sound, whatever that may mean for each individual that enjoys or hates what we do. Just look at it as another step in the evolution of this band. Each person that hears it will have his or her own perception of it. Like it or not, we don't have a say in it. The only thing we can do is just keep writing the way we do and accept the criticism. Doesn't mean we are gonna listen to the criticism and change. Just give it an honest listen and if you dig it, awesome! If you don't, then pass it on to a friend or use it as a new drink coaster." Guitarist Sammy Duet added: "Dark, heavy, evil. Erik Rutan did one hell of a job on it. If you don't like it… kiss my ass." "Carving Out The Eyes Of God" track listing: 01. Apocalyptic Havoc 02. The All-Destroying 03. Carving Out The Eyes Of God 04. Shadow Of A Rising Knife 05. Provoking The Ritual Of Death 06. In Legions, I Am Wars Of Wrath 07. Reckoning Of The Soul Made Godless 08. This Passing Into The Power Of Demons 09. Razor Flesh Devoured 10. To Mourn And Forever Wander Through Forgotten Doorways GOATWHORE will hit the road with AMON AMARTH, LAZARUS A.D. and SKELETONWITCH beginning on April 22 in Buffalo, New York.

I think the only band/performer that tours more than him is Vader. Hopefully they can play a full set on this tour, am always up for the priceless warmth of the butchering of god. |
