We try to stay away from posting rumors around here. This one was just too good to pass up though. Consider this wishful thinking… for now.
Reactivated British extreme metal legends CARCASS are rumored to be putting the finishing touches on a new studio album with acclaimed producer Colin Richardson (FEAR FACTORY, MACHINE HEAD, NAPALM DEATH, SLIPKNOT). The band has yet to secure a label home for the effort, which is expected in early 2013.
Guitarist Michael Amott and drummer Daniel Erlandsson, who have been touring with CARCASS since the band’s reunion was announced in 2007, are no longer involved with the group due to scheduling conflicts with their main band, ARCH ENEMY. Joining guitarist Bill Steer and bassist/vocalist Jeff Walker in the studio for the new CD recording sessions was drummer Matthias Voigt of German death metal and hardcore fusionists HEAVEN SHALL BURN.
