APHYXION Begin Writing Tracks For New Album

Danish, modern death metal machine, Aphyxion has begun writing and recording new tracks for their upcoming album to be released later in 2015 or in the beginning of 2016. With their debut album Earth Entangled, produced by Jacob Hansen – who has also been a mentor for the band – released in September last year the Danish band went on a roll of positive reviews from magazines worldwide.

With a fierce, aggressive and yet modern death metal sound, the guys from Aphyxion has come far in their musical development and the new songs will show their songwriting skills has evolved towards even more aggression but still catchy tunes.

“The new material is starting to take shape,” says guitarist Jonas Haagesen, who is the main composer in Aphyxion. ”At this moment it’s still too early to reveal any details apart from these new songs representing a more mature Aphyxion and a big step forward musically and songwriting-wise. While our debut album, Earth Entangled, was straight forward without any gimmicks, this new album will contain a greater contrast and will be more diverse at some points. Expect to get your minds blown!”

The lyrical themes on Earth Entangled is a study in how humans are destroying the world we all have to live in. Singer Michael Vahl will never be finished digging into these topics and for the new songs he will continue this concept.

“I’ll keep on writing about the decline of mankind till people start giving a damn. To me, it seems pointless to write about love, hate, blood or guts when in a few years’ time, there won’t be anything to write about at all. Fear and manipulation is everywhere. We’re in the middle of a 1984-novel, and nobody seems to give a shit. We’re turning the blind eye and hoping for the best. This is what the lyrics will be about. The world as I see it. Dystopia.”

Aphyxion will record their new – yet untitled album – at Hansen Studios. It will once again be produced by Jacob Hansen and Jonas Haagensen.

In may they will co-headline the Wacken Metal Battle Denmark shows and also play at Esbjerg Rock Festival 2015 with Def Leppard, Europe and many more.
