News : New Psycroptic song online

By on August 20, 2008

Tasmanian tech-death band Psycroptic have uploaded a new track called “Immortal Army Of One” to their Myspace. The track comes off their up and coming album titled “Ob(Servant)”. This will be the bands first album released on Nuclear Blast Records and will be available in Fall 2008. You can hear the new song at http://www.myspace.com/psycroptic

Drummer Dave Haley recently commented on their upcoming release:

“‘Ob(Servant)’ is definitely our finest hour (well, finest 49 minutes and 49 seconds anyway). It’s of course a cliché of every band to say that their newest album is their best and so on, but we are very proud of what we have done on this album. The writing process was a little different for this album, with Joe (guitarist) writing pretty much all the material. This gives the album a very coheisive and flowing feel, and this album is definatley our most diverse material thus far. The artwork is also amazing, having been completed by Raymand Swanland (DEEDS OF FLESH). Those not familiar with his work should check it out – you will be amazed!

It’s a mixture of everything we have done, as well as adding in new elements to continue the progression we are on as a band. No point releasing the same album twice, right? Like “Symbols of Failure”, Joe  engineered the album, but this time we enlisted the help of metal guru Logan Mader to mix and master the album…and that was probably the best decision we have ever made. The album sounds huge! Since we are currently on the amazing Summer Slaughter tour in the US at the moment, we had been receiving mixes while on the road. After our LA show Logan took myself and Joe to his Dirty Icon studio and put the finishing touches on the mix. Huge is one word for the sound he achieved.”
