In 1993 a band called CYNIC set the standard for not just progressive death metal (you could make the argument for ATHEIST and even PESTILENCE too), but also progressive rock/metal with the seminal "Focus". Vocalist/guitarist Paul Masvidal had a vision for a band that would break the mold and succeeded in making an album with drummer Sean Reinert, guitarist Jason Gobel, and bassist Sean Malone that 15 years later continues to influence scores of thinking man's bands. After an eternity, Masvidal and Reinert (also credited with keyboards), along with bassist Sean Malone and guitarist/vocalist Tymon Kruidenier, decided it was time to begin writing the second chapter of the CYNIC saga, which will soon be available in the form of "Traced in Air", a brilliantly composed progressive metal/rock album. |

Danish thrashers HATESPHERE have inked a deal with Napalm Records. The group's new album is tentatively due next spring.
Commented guitarist Peter "Pepe" Lyse Hansen: "The last year has been really hectic for us. Not in a bad sense, but we have been working hard on both new material, playing shows and changing the lineup. The great changes the band has been going through have meant that we needed a record label that would support us 100%. Napalm is not only very professional, they also have a great varied roster, and they have shown to be willing to support HATESPHERE in the way that we want. Our new album has been just completed, and no need to say that we really can't wait to get started with our work with Napalm. Early next year the album will be out, and Napalm Records and HATESPHERE are on their way. See you out there — stronger than ever!"
The new HATESPHERE album was recorded with producer Tue Madsen at the Antfarm Studio in Aarhus, Denmark.
HATESPHERE was honored in the "Hard Rock" category at the annual Danish Music Awards (the Danish Grammy Awards equivalent). The 40th Danish Music Awards show was held on February 23 at Tivoli in Copenhagen, Denmark and was broadcast live on MySpace. |
