DREAMING DEAD - Forthcoming Album "Has More Of A Modern Edge To It" BW&BK has received the following press release:
Los Angeles'
DREAMING DEAD are a quickly rising force in extreme metal, garnering significant national and international attention over the short two years the band has been together. Fronted and founded by Elizabeth Schall, Dreaming Dead released their first recording in the summer of 2006: a four-song demo entitled Through The Eyes Of Insanity under the previous band name of Manslaughter. The reviews for that release were stellar, leaving listeners aching for more of the blackened, death-thrash attack reminiscent of
DEATH, SLAYER, CRYPTOPSY and
OPETH. 'Impressive,' devastating,' 'technically precise,' and 'great debut' are not terms to be thrown around lightly.
Fresh off the recording of their debut album Within One — due out on Ibex Moon Records January 20th 2009 — Elizabeth Schall and Mike Caffell have recruited Juan Ramirez on bass. Expect a busy year for Dreaming Dead and keep your eyes out for them in your city. Necks and ears will never be the same.
"It's heavier; it has more of a modern edge to it," says Schall when comparing her fury-laden full-length to the demo that established the band as a force to be reckoned with in the underground scene. "We just hope that the album is well-received by the metal community and we can't wait to get out on the road. We're really excited about everything."
In addition to her daily Dreaming Dead duties, Schall will be featured in the upcoming James Sullivan documentary, La Femme Metal, set to be released this April. Check out the trailer
