Norwegian Viking heroes MANEGARM have also started recording their new and promising upcoming full length 'Dödsfärd' (working title) at Underground Studios. The title is referring to the ancient burials of the vikings, and the music promises to be a fine, yet very recognizable elaboration of the band's first two impressive releases. Belgian artist Chris Verwimp will again take care of the cover art. Expected to be released late 2002 to early 2003.

Perished - Not Yet

Oct 19, 2002 at 11:21 PM by deathbringer (Source: Displeased Records).

Norwegian black metallers PERISHED have entered the studio to record their much anticipated follow up to 'Kark', the band's debut full length album from several years ago. Thus far the band is very positive about the recordings, which promise to be a well balanced mix between the strong powerful and 'melodic' side of their debut and the raging rawness of the mini album Grim' which was released last year on underground label Apocalyptic Empire. Both Jehmod (drums) and Ihizahg (guitar) been busy lately recording with the likes of WURDULAK, GORELORD and BLOODTHORN. Expected release is late 2002.
