BENEDICTION - "Too Many Tracks For One Album"

BENEDICTION has issued the following bulletin:

"A lot of you are asking what is going on with Benediction, well here goes:

On the new album front, we are fine tuning the guitar fill and lyrics and trying to decide on the final tracklisting. We have way too many tracks for one album. So once we narrow them down, we will go straight into the studio and record the fucking thing. We are also waiting for the record producer to book us in. We have waited this long so we do not mind waiting a little longer until his current projects are fulfilled.

In the meantime, some of Benediction have been doing other music related stuff.

Drummer Nicholas Barker is helping out TESTAMENT on their live dates and more than likely the new Testament album as well.

Vocalist Dave Hunt is working with MISTRESS and ANAAL NATHRAKH and will record albums and do some live shows with both bands as well. Anaal Nathrakh will definitely be assaulting your senses in a dangerous live environment this year.

Bassist Frank Healy is playing in the reformed CEREBRAL FIX and will also play on their new album. He played on one of the John Peel sessions for Anaal Nathrakh which appears on the When Fire Rains Down From The Sky re-issue. On top of that he is putting a band together called THE BURNING DEITIES. Frank has written all the music for this band and will showcase the songs live after Benediction's album is completed.

Guitarist Daz is busy with Rewy on the fine tuning of the album for Benediction. It's all about guitar riffs after all!

Killing Music will be released in 2007.

There will be new pictures of the current line up in the next few weeks.

We are just sorting out the new designs for our merchandise which will be available at www.benediction.ch .

Enough waffle for now. Next time we update we should be giving you studio reports.

And we are now being booked for a lot of the festivals in 2007. We are in the signing contracts stage with a lot of them. We will put them up at www.benediction.ch as they are finalised and confirmed."

Thus far, Benediction have announced two shows:

September
8 - Hellflame Festival - Osnabruck
22 - Hellflame Festival Special - The Southside Of Hell - Lichtenfels
