PESTILENCE and SADIST Join Forces In NUFUTIC

Federico Gasperi, general manager at Nadir Music, revealed to BLABBER MOUTH.NET that bassist Jeroen Paul Thesseling (PESTILENCE, ex-OBSCURA) joins forces with producer and guitar/keyboard virtuoso Tommy Talamanca (SADIST) in a new recording project 'NUFUTIC'. "We are very stoked about this new collaboration. Our working field will be fusion influenced metal, a direction that allows us to combine progressive elements of our musical backgrounds", says Talamanca.

The Dutch/Italian project announced via Thesseling's website [www.jeroenthesseling.com] to hold video auditions for drummers who play jazz-fusion and metal. Interested parties should send their background info and performance web links via email to: contact [at] jeroenthesseling [dot] com.

Tommy works since 1991 with the Italian prog/death band SADIST and recorded their albums "Above the Light" (1993), "Tribe" (1996), "Crust" (1997), "Lego" (2000), "Sadist" (2007) and "Season in Silence" (2010). Last year Tommy contributed a guitar solo to the track "Euclidean Elements" on OBSCURA's latest album, "Omnivium".

Thesseling collaborated with OBSCURA from 2008 till 2011 and recorded the band's full-length albums "Cosmogenesis" (2009) and "Omnivium" (2011). In 2009 Jeroen rejoined the Dutch death metallers PESTILENCE after a 15-year hiatus. He recorded PESTILENCE's fourth and sixth studio albums, "Spheres" (1993) and "Doctrine" (2011).

SEPULCRAL enters the domain of Razorback Recordings

Razorback is proud to announce we will be releasing the debut CD from Italy's SEPULCRAL!

This underground Italian band plays dark and catchy old-school Death Metal with Doom influences... taking inspiration from such classic early 90's bands such as Derketa, Impetigo, Mythic, Autopsy, Necrotomy, Hellhammer, Incantation, as well as the brilliant and morbid horror themes from such masters as Mario Bava, Dario Argento, and more! This is simply a match made in HELL...

The debut 9 song album, titled "Anthropophagy of Doom", will be released sometime later this year on Razorback Recordings. Be prepared for one of the best debut albums in unholy horror DEATH METAL!
