| 2009-09-29 | As I Lay Dying To Enter Studio Next Month | Vocalist Tim Lambesis of San Diego metallers As I Lay Dying has issued the following update:
"Songwriting for the next As I Lay Dying CD has been going well, with about 6-7 songs done.
"We decided to officially start recording the new As I Lay Dying album on October 17. At that point we'll record as many songs as we can and then finish the album around the New Year. I think this will be a good way to spread out our songwriting since most of our previous records have always been written within a few months."

| 2003-12-09 | Behemoth extend contract with label for two albums | Polish black/death metallers Behemoth have extended their contract with Olympic Recordings. The group have already commenced the songwriting process for their highly anticipated new album and will enter the studio in early spring with hopes for a late 2004 release.
This has been a breakthrough year for Behemoth, who made their U.S. live debut at the New Jersey March Metal Meltdown festival, which served as the kickoff date for an extensive nationwide tour alongside Deicide and Amon Amarth. From there, they appeared on the first three dates of the now-infamous "Metal Gods" tour headlined by Halford and Testament, as well as the inaugural "Blackest of the Black" festivals (also featuring Danzig, Superjoint Ritual, Opeth, Nile and Lacuna Coil). Behemoth capped off the year supporting Six Feet Under on the "Un-Natural Born Killers" tour, and with the release of the limited-edition "Conjuration" EP, featuring one new song, two covers and several live tracks.
Nergal (vocals/guitars) recently checked in with the following update: "At the moment we are taking a short break before we strike again in a few days. After doing 31 dates with Six Feet Under, Sinless and As I Lay Dying we decided to stay a few weeks in LA. to take care of some important stuff. We are proud to announce that we finally signed a new two-album deal with Olympic Recordings for North and South America. It gives us a lot of opportunities for the future and from what we've experienced so far, the label does its best to push the band really hard. Now we are focusing on rehearsing the new set for the three last shows this year with Exhumed and Rise and this time we're gonna play a longer set. There will be two shows in California and one in Mexico, and I'm sure it will be killer! See ya all there!!!"
Upcoming Behemoth tour dates:
Dec. 10 - Allen Theatre - Los Angeles, CA
Dec. 11 - Showcase Theater - Corona, CA
Dec. 13 - Voodoo House - Tijuana, MEX

Update from Tim:
The CD Release party was great. We've been out of the road for a month and a half now, and it's good to come home and have a lot of support from your hometown. It was one of our best performances yet. The kids were great.
Thanks to Norm and the guys from Blue Meanie for having us. We had a great time.
We are heading back out on the road today. All in all the touring experience has been good and we are looking forward to touring through August.
We've got Furnace Fest coming up. We played last year and it was our first big festival, so it will be nice to go back with more confidence. Everybody is excited to play again.
