The Seattle-based quintet, NEVERMORE, are currently wrapping up the songwriting process for their highly anticipated new album, set for a summer release. In February, the group will head to Backstage Studios in England to begin recording with legendary producer Andy Sneap (ARCH ENEMY, KILLSWITCH ENGAGE, OPETH). This will mark the group’s first recording with guitarist Steve Smyth (ex-TESTAMENT). The band will proceed to debut some new material on a short European tour in March.

In other news, due to overwhelming demand, the group’s critically acclaimed 2003 album, Enemies of Reality, is currently being remixed by Sneap and will be repackaged with altered cover artwork, two promotional video clips (the title track and “I, Voyager”) and a live video of the title track performed at Germany’s Wacken Open Air Festival this past summer. The remixed Enemies of Reality will replace the existing version of the album in stores beginning in March.

Warrel Dane (vocals) further describes his excitement over the album being remastered, “We’re glad that we can all finally hear Enemies of Reality the way it should have sounded in the first place. Andy’s mixes sound brutal, and the infamous blanket of mud is gone. We’re hard at work getting ready for the studio. The new material is shaping up to be some of our best work yet. We’re psyched to get in the studio with Andy and tear it up again.”
