INSISION
Swedish death metallers
Insision will celebrate their 15-year anniversary with the release of a 23-song collection containing material from their first demo, 1998's
Meant to Suffer; a recording of the band's second live appearance in 1998, "Live Like A Worm"; the 1999 mini-CD
The Dead Live On; 2000's
Promo 2000 demo; 2001's
Revelation of the SadoGod demo; plus a newly re-recorded version of an old track. Due in May via Sevared Records, the CD will once again be completed with the help of engineer Anders Eriksson at Off Beat Studio in Stockholm.
Insision is currently writing material for its as-yet-untitled next full-length album, to be released later this year via Sevared Records.
Commented the band: "The new material sounds like a mix of the complex stuff we did on our first record,
Beneath the Folds of Flesh back in 2001 along with rhythm parts that can be explained with a more darker approach. We don't want our listeners to wait too long for a new record; therefore we'll release this collection for the fans that are into brutal death metal. Hope it's worth the wait."

JOEY LOMBARD
Former
Incantation bassist Joey "Fingers" Lombard passed away on January 3, 2012 at the age of 42. A resident of Windber, Pennsylvania, he was most recently employed by Lockheed Martin in Johnstown.
Commented
Incantation drummer Kyle Severn: "Joey was one of the nicest people you could ever meet.
"Joey had stepped up to the plate and joined John McEntee and myself back in 2000 to create some of
Incantation's finest blasphemy to date! He stuck with us for five-plus long years of writing and travelling the death metal roads! He was an amazing musician and bass player. He had contributed more than most could imagine to the death metal scene. He had made many new friends through those years on the road; he was such a likable guy. I don't think he had a mean bone in his body. He will be truly missed".

NILE
South Carolina-based extreme technical death metallers
Nile have finished recording the drums for their new album for an early 2012 release. Guitarist/vocalist Karl Sanders states, George [Kollias, drums], Dallas [Toler-Wade, guitar/vocals], [producer] Neil Kernon and I spent a week with Bob Moore at the Soundlab in Columbia, South Carolina tracking drums. We were expecting a long grueling session - some of this material is very compositionally challenging and technically demanding - but George knocked it out, finishing a full week ahead of schedule.
"Oh my God. Some of the drumming on this record will be boggling people's minds for years to come".
