New Machinae Supremacy album




Posted by Klarth

Well, it was announced sometime late last year for a 2007/2008 release, so here's the list of information known about it:

Label: Spinefarm
Release date: Q4 07 / Q1-2 08 (internal date has been set with Spinefarm)
Title: Not announced yet, but it's been decided

Mixed by Patrik Jerksten (responsible for Dream Evil's mixing)

Lyrical themes similar to those of Seventeen and Legion of Stoopid will be present again - This time in a song about American Christian fundamentalism

Sound will be 'less dry'. More chiptunes, less synth. Might feature piano.

Robert is doing the album art himself again. Before the Redeemer RE art was revealed, it was already present on his deviantArt page, so the art could be any of the following images: [url=http://e.photos.cx/Terminator_by_nordlander-b76.jpg]1[/url] [url=http://e.photos.cx/Spirit_Goth_by_nordlander-8fe.jpg]2[/url] [url=http://e.photos.cx/Inja_by_nordlander-ac3.jpg]3[/url]

Fifteen songs written, twelve or so will be on the album. The others will presumably be web releases, or b-sides on a single.

Speaking of singles - Not planned, but they're in talks with Spinefarm.

Third Super Steve song will be on the album.

There is a sample, albeit a very short one. It's the 'mystery sample' from Prelude to Empire. [url=http://bracagazus.free.fr/various/masusong.mp3]Dark City sample[/url]

A vocals studio is being built in Gordon's apartment.

The band is very busy with their 'Hubnester Industries' project (their commission-based video game music studio), which might set the album's date back.


Song titles (not in order, not complete list, might change before release):

Sidstar
Player Two
Overworld
Dark City
Radio Future

They're using Children of Bodom's leftover instruments, heh.

Player two?
Oh man, another release I'll be dying to hear.

I'd prefer the 2nd image for the album art.

Apparently it's actually really well done. A lot of posts on their last.fm page consist of "GIMME GIMME GIMME GIMME GIMME MOAR"
