HYPOCRISY’s Peter Tägtgren has reported that the band are making steady progress in the recording of their follow-up to last year’s Catch 22 album. Tägtgren posted the following studio report on the band’s official website:

“So far the drums are done…we are on working with a deadline because the plan is to finish the recording before our next tour with DIMMU BORGIR.

“All the songs have been written and 10 song is what you’ll get.

“This album will contain a wide variety of songs: there are some fast songs, mid-tempo songs and also and some doom songs.

“The tempo of the songs will have the same kind of feeling as our self-title albumd (Hypocrisy) but they will have more “finesse” to it. It’s hard to put into words, you’ll just have to hear if for yourself.

“The guitar sound is fucking brutal (!!!) and in the same vein as the guitar sound on Abducted, but heavier and angrier.”

The band’s aforementioned tour with DIMMU BORGIR also features NEVERMORE and CHILDREN OF BODOM. The US tour kicks off November 7th in Buffalo, New York. Get the dates here.
