ABORTED Recruits GOD DETHRONED Drummer For CD-Release Shows

January 31, 2007

Belgian masters of brutality ABORTED have recruited GOD DETHRONED drummer Ariën van Weesenbeek to sit behind the kit for their upcoming CD-release shows in support of their new album, "Slaughter & Apparatus: A Methodical Overture", which is set for a February 20 release. The dates are as follows:

Feb. 16 - Dynamo - Eindhoven, NETH
Feb. 17 - Biebob - Vosselaar, BEL
Feb. 18 - Nouveau Casino - Paris, FRA

According to a press release, "Slaughter & Apparatus: A Methodical Overture" is "an astounding new album, refreshing, massive and graced with all trademarks of an instant classic: memorable and inventive song structures, over-the-top musicianship, a natural and warm yet up-to-date production and a feel of timelessness rarely seen in the genre nowadays. ABORTED are more than prepared to shatter the boundaries of extreme metal and set new standards." The disc was recorded at Denmark's Antfarm Studios with producer/engineer Tue Madsen (HIMSA, THE HAUNTED),and includes guest vocal performances by Jeff Walker (ex-CARCASS) and Jacob Bredahl (HATESPHERE).

Sven De Caluwe further describes the new effort: "Expect an album which more or less condenses what we've been doing over the last three albums, with some fresh elements added in. It's definitely a lot more extreme, with more solo mayhem than 'The Archaic Abattoir', while still retaining the groove and melodies we have been building on. We promise that you will not be disappointed."

ABORTED caught the attention of the entire scene on their highly successful debut U.S. tour with SUFFOCATION and Century Media labelmates CRYPTOPSY and DESPISED ICON last fall. The band plans on aggressively touring the U.S. this year to keep their momentum going strong in support of the new album.
