Believer complete new album
2010-12-08 by Trey Spencer STAFF | 18 Replies | 1251 Views

Technical thrash metallers Believer have finished recording their new album and are shooting for an early 2011 release through Metal Blade Records.

The CD was produced by Trauma Team Productions and will be mixed by Kevin Gutierrez (Raven, Project: Failing Flesh, Deceased) at Assembly Line Studios.

When asked about the direction of this latest endeavor guitarist/vocalist Kurt Bachman said: "We decided to bring back some of the orchestral feel of 'Dimensions' by utilizing more layered guitars, keys and melody with different vocal arrangements. There is still the 'Believer' sound, but the musical progression continues for us."

Keyboardist/programmer Jeff King added: "We revamped our writing and recording process so that everyone could work at their peak times. We also spent a lot of time finding the right combinations of gear to achieve the sounds we wanted.

"Each Believer album has had its own sound that distinguishes it from the preceding album, and this project is no different in that respect. You still have the core elements that make it recognizable as Believer, but the guitar tone is heavier, the songs are tighter and musically it seems more refined."

--aren't these guys christian or something?--

Yeah, they are and it was totally obvious on their older albums, but they never got preachy. Gabriel's lyrics didn't feel like they were 'christian' at all, though. I'm not saying they were the opposite or anything, they just didn't come off as religious.
