SOILWORK Frontman: 'I Have More Faith In This Band Than Ever'

February 26, 2006

SOILWORK vocalist Björn "Speed" Strid has posted the following message on the band's official web site:

"I'm in Studio Fredman [in Gothenburg, Sweden] right now, mixing the new DISARMONIA MUNDI album [Italian extreme death metallers, featuring a guest appearance by Strid on vocals]. Things are going good but hectic as usual. Hopefully everything goes well and the album can be released sometime in April/May.

"SOILWORK is getting ready to hit the road again after a pretty long break (probably needed). To tell you the truth, the inspiration is flowing right now and we've already pretty much completed two new SOILWORK songs that just sounds killer. I gotta say it was unexpected to get this kind of inspiration after all that happened, or maybe that was just the reason why…? I have more faith in this band than ever.

"We're heading out for the MetalMania festivals on Wednesday. It will for sure be an interesting festival tour for many reasons: first time in Poland and the Czech Republic and the first shows after a three-month break."

SOILWORK's latest CD, "Stabbing the Drama", is available now on Nuclear Blast Records. The follow-up to 2003's "Figure Number Five" was recorded at Fascination Street studios in Örebro and Dug-Out Productions in Uppsala, Sweden with producer Daniel Bergstrand (MESHUGGAH, IN FLAMES, STUCK MOJO).
