Dying Fetus have entered the studio to record their next full length album, which they will once again be working with longtime producer Steve Wright (Slipknot, Misery Index) at Wrightway Studios in Baltimore, MD.
Set to be released in mid 2012 through Relapse Records, the album will feature nine tracks and is a "return to roots" with production focused slightly more on slam than in the band's last few works. An official release date and album title will be announced shortly. "The last album had some groove in it," stated guitarist and vocalist John Gallagher, "but [it] was basically a lot of tech; this one is a return to form of older Dying Fetus albums, so to speak- more modern production though, of course." "Everything's tight," John adds; "...the sound is crushing, the drums are amazing".
Additionally, Dying Fetus have announced a series of special South American shows set to take place in mid-January. The band has also been confirmed for next year's prestigious Maryland Deathfest and France's Hellfest. Dying Fetus plan to tour extensively in support of their new album and will be announcing more dates shortly.
