From the mortified gallows of Mjölby, Sweden, Death Metal fiends VANHELGD, are set to make a return to action with their first offering of new material after a two-year absence.
Relentless and uncompromising, with an obscurely dark vibe, VANHELGD came on to the scene with their debut full-length Cult Of Lazarus in 2008. Three years later. the band unleashed the intensely devastating Church Of Death. After a period of dormancy, VANHELGD will strike back with a vengeance with the release of a new record that promises to be a Death/Doom supreme beast.
VANHELGD have recently completed writing material for the upcoming record and are scheduled to enter the studio next month. The band recorded a short video clip of themselves rehearsing a new track off the new album, and can be seen at this location.
"VANHELGD are very pleased to sign a deal with Pulverised for our next, yet untitled, album. The journey continues along the eerie paths we explored on 'Church Of Death,' but the songs seem somewhat darker this time," states VANHELGD frontman and guitarist Mattias Frisk. "The writing process has been much more focused to our rehearsals this time with everyone involved, trying to make the absolutely best out of every song and not letting anything pass unnoticed. A lot of ideas have been thrown away, leaving us with eight strong tracks drenched in death, destruction and pure malevolence. The recording will start in November 2013 and will be the first with our new bass player Jonas Albrektsson."
Pulverised Records label manager Roy Yeo also commented on the new signing: "We took notice on VANHELGD when they released 'Church Of Death' and back then, there was already something about VANHELGD that we enjoyed. Perhaps it was a little of the sorrow vibe ala early At The Gates / Paradise Lost that was hidden beneath all that filthy Death Metal that was on 'Church Of Death,' so we immediately agreed on releasing their upcoming album when the band approached us. We believe that for a band such as VENHELGD, their material can only get stronger with each release and further solidify the signature sound that they already possessed."
