OBITUARY verraten Details zum neuen Album Frozen in Time. Lest im Anhang, was die Band zu den neuen Songs zu sagen hat. Frozen in Time erscheint am 18. Juli.
1. REDNECK STOMP
The opening track is a mid paced and repetitive head banger. Listening to it, you are patiently waiting for the vocals, which never come, and then the song quickly fades out.
We figure it´s been eight years and it would be cool to make everyone wait just three more minutes for the vocals” adds Donald. “It´s also not an annoying intro where you will skip it for future listens
2. ON THE FLOOR
With the fade out of the previous track, the start of this is like a punch in the face. John Tardy belches forth with brutal delivery from the opening second in this fast paced number. The pace only slows down for the chorus.
That´s a fast song comments Frank Watkins. It´s got that hook and I think it will become one of the better known songs.
3. INSANE
Another relatively fast song, with Donald Tardy supplying the thundering drums while his brother lays down the especially tortured vocals. Sounds a bit like it could have easily been on The End Complete.
We did that one on our European tour comments Frank Watkins. When we would play all the old songs we just throw that in and it fits in perfectly, like a classic. Some kids didn´t even know it was new.
4. BLINDSIDED
Originally titled Samurai, this one shows a lot of that Celtic Frost-inspired classic Obituary groove. Relatively evenly paced, the song carries on but never gets boring.
That´s the meat and potatoes on the album explains Donald. The song is mid tempo and it just stays there. If another band tried playing at that level they would fall asleep. But with us there is still so much energy, it is just bad ass.
5. BACK INSIDE
Another very quick song, with lots of fast but basic guitar leads. Has a catchy chorus of John Tardy ruthlessly barking out Back inside!
That was a song I already had written Trevor states. I came down here, got real stoned and came up with it real quick. I think there are only two or three riffs in the whole song, he laughs.
