Description
The album was recorded under the watchful eyes of producer Juan Urteaga (EXODUS, HEATHEN, MACHINE HEAD), guitarist Eric Peterson and singer Chuck Billy and was mixed and mastered by well-known metal producer Andy Sneap (ACCEPT, ARCH ENEMY, CRADLE OF FILTH, KREATOR, MACHINE HEAD, MEGADETH).
Commented Peterson in an interview with Metal Maniac: Its very diverse, but its very epic. Theres nothing on there that breeds commercial. And I think for thirty years of recording music and trying different formulas and stuff, I think weve found a formula that is very metal. I think for the metal fan that is looking for something for the nook and crannies not just your normal, Oh, its got a thrash beat and a riff. Theres a lot going on here.
The songwriter also told Metal Forces in another interview: Its different. This one is more thrash. I mean, this has got some of the fastest stuff that we have ever played. Usually, we have one or two thrash songs, and then we have some mid-tempo, and then we have a slow, heavy one, and then up-tempo kind of stuff. Half of the new record is thrash, which weve never done before.
He continued: Its kind of like ‘Demonic’ and ‘The Gathering’, but a little bit wiser, I think. Chucks not singing so death. I mean, he does some death stuff but hes singing more like he did on the last record and then with the craziness of ‘The Gathering’ or even heavy stuff like ‘Demonic’
