2009-06-10 | Belphegor: New Album Title Announced | Austrian blackened death metal outfit Belphegor have set "Walpurgis Rites - Hexenwahn" as the title of their eighth full-length studio album, due out in October via Nuclear Blast Records. The follow-up to 2008's "Bondage Goat Zombie" was recorded at Andy Classen's (Legion Of The Damned, Dew-Scented, Neaera, Asphyx) Stage One Studios in Kassel, Germany.
Commented frontman Helmuth: "The title fits perfect to the whole concept, the lyrical themes. It's typical Belphegor, involving symbology and double meanings. I have always been fascinated by the idea and atmosphere surrounding witches, their magic, the insane sabbath/ ceremonies — and all the obscurity that goes with it. With the nine sound collages, the verses, artwork we continue our descent into the depths of musical hell."

2006-12-12 | Gorefest - stay unlucky with touring! | The Gods don `t seem to be good with Gorefest when it comes to touring. Again there will be no live shows by the Dutch guys.
Metallysee Agency has shortly announced the cancellation of this year`s X-MASS FESTIVALS. This concerns not only Dutch Death Metal legend GOREFEST who have quite a history with cancelled tours now, but also Belphegor. GOREFEST-guitarist Frank Harthoorn explains: "Ever since Six Feet Under pulled out of this tour a couple of months ago, this has been a bit of an ongoing mess. We thought we'd stick with the plan, since this would be about the last chance to do some proper touring for “La Muerte” before we hit the studio for the next album. When we heard that headliner Trail Of Tears split up last week, we already kind of felt this one slipping away, so we suggested to Metallysee we'd head out with a couple of the remaining bands. You know, join forces, cut prices, split the difference and what-not. Metallysee, however, wasn't having any of that, so come the end of 2006 we're looking at three cancelled tours, about 50 cancelled gigs, all within 11 months. That's something, isn't it? Almost looks like that curse Dani Filth put on us back in '94 is finally kicking in. Oh well, worse things happen at sea, I guess. Thankfully, Ed [Warby, drums] and Boudewijn [Vincent Bonebakker, guitar] have come up with some frightfully heavy shit for us to play with. They even wrote some songs as well, so for the next months, we'll be throwing riffs, fills, leads and, well, stuff at each other." Source: NuclearBlast |
