DAM album nears completion - Album title revealed
London extreme metallers DAM's next album is in the final stages of production of their second album, titled "The Difference Engine" to be released by CANDLELIGHT RECORDS later this year.
An advance non-finalised version of the title track has been made available in the Metal Hammer UK covermount CD as well as on the band's myspace page .
Guitarist/Vocalist Nathan speaks about the album:
"After several long months of writing, recording, mixing, re-recording, re-mixing, arguing, soul-searching, and returning to old mixes, we are finally coming to a stage where the fruit of all our efforts is in sight. The guitars sound massive. The feel of the music itself is epic. We've brought in some extra special guest performers who have made sterling contributions to some of the songs on the album.
The recording itself was made in part in London's Eastcote Studios with Finnish producer Anders Nuberg at the helm, and I think his unique approach has produced exceptional results."
Drummer Gomez offers his thoughts:
"This record will change the world. I'm extremely excited about it. It was - and still is - a very intense process. But I believe that, as anyone who listens to the final product will be able to hear for themselves, it's definitely been worth the effort. The whole thing is going to be very organic and visceral.
As for the drums themselves there's pretty much no editing! I rather have that, than "perfect" lifeless takes that sound totally unnatural. I give you the real deal, as it should be."
