- Aeon (short bio, discography, highlights, …):
The band was formed in 1999 by four members from the newly broken up band, Defaced Creation. Since then 1 MCD and 2 full length albums has been made. The MCD "Dark Order" was released 2001, it was originally recorded as a demo but Necropolis record wanted to release it anyway. In 2005 we released our first full length album "Bleeding the false" thru Unique Leader Records. This album did get very good response from both fans and critics. And now (September 2007) we are releasing our second full length album "Rise to dominate" thru Metal Blade records. One highlight worth mentioning was the European tour we did with Cannibal Corpse and Prostitute Disfigurement last year. That was awesome.
- “Rise To Dominate” (writing process, recording process, label, …):
It was mainly me and Zeb who did write all the music at home. (Except for one song that Max did). Recording the ideas as pre-productions with programed drums on a computer. And when the idea is taking form, we upload it to a file server so all the other band-members can listen to it and give feedback. And when the song-idea is developed into something that almost would be considered a whole song, Tommy takes the idea and writes lyrics and creates all the vocal patterns for it. And after that, it's trying it out in the rehearsal-room, often making some small changes to make it perfect.
We did record the whole album in about 3,5 weeks at the "Empire Studio". After that, we sent the whole project down to Unisound Studio and Dan Swanö for some mixing & mastering. He was done after about 10 day and the result was awesome. Dan was really easy to work with and he did understand exactly what we where looking for. I am sure we will be working with him again in the future.
It's no other label than Metal Blade Records who is releasing this album, and that feels so damn good. Metal Blade is the label that we have always wanted to be on, and now we are. They are doing a killer job so far and i can do nothing but praise them.
- Dan Swanö & Unisound Recordings. Why and how?:
We wanted to try something new this time around and Lord K from "The Project Hate" always praised Dan for the great job he has done with their last albums. And with all rights... the "Project Hate" albums sounds awesome. So we simply asked Dan if he wanted to mix & master our album and he sure did. We are more than happy with the result, i think it sounds amazing.
- Album frontcover / artwork (who, why, meaning, …):
Who... it's me who have done the cover + all artwork on this album as-well as the previous one "Bleeding the false". Why, its just dark, evil & demonic...The meaning with it...Well... Hell Awaits, come walk with us, my friend.
- Live tour to promote the new record:
We where supposed to go on Metal Blade Record's 25th Anniversary North American tour in September / October but was forced to cancel it. This is due to a decision made by Nils (drummer) to not go on the tour since it would conflict with upcoming Dark Funeral shows / tour + some personal family business that made him make this decision. This is all very bad since it's a really great tour with good bands and all. But i'll hope new great opportunities will come along later on.
- Musical (and other) influences:
Ohh man... it can be everything from some classic symphonic shit to 80's hard-rock and forward the most brutal death metal there is. It depends on what mood i am in. Other influences can everyday stuff that pisses me off, cool horror movies or whatever. And one other thing... myself with a fat guitar-sound... Thats fucking inspiring. Just to play guitar with a massive guitar-sound brings forth the most evil riff's.
- Final Message:
Keep supporting death metal, and if you downloads albums of the net... at least buy the fucking ones you really like. Cheers!
