BELPHEGOR

Issues studio update

Helmuth, vocalist/guitarist for Austrian black metal horde BELPHEGOR, has issued the following studio update: "Just returned from the second studio session, completed all rhythm guitars and Serpenth laid down the bass lines. The nine sound collages started to show their grim face and I can say we're pretty damn pleased, totally blown away by the evil atmosphere. All sound more epic than ever, with lots of cold, haunting melodies, we also added a lot of new elements/structures to our sound."

The band shot some photos during the recordings. The third session in Stage One Studios takes place from March 21st-27th.

The band adds the following update: "The Masterplan: Hexenwahn - Totenkult (album title?). As opposed to previous tales of the inquisition, this focuses upon the darker, more dismal of the mighty, powerful witches who conjure and worship demons. Those who have a pact with the forces of hell through the occult. The concept deals with demonology, witchcraft/ Hexenwahn, depraved suKKubi, blackest erotica, and as always, the grand devil, himself."

Belphegor's new album is tentatively scheduled for a worldwide release in the fall of 2009 via Nuclear Blast Records.
