Although for you it may seem nothing is happening in the
Pentacle-crypts, for us it is an extremely busy period. Evening after
evening I am busy doing the layout for the new album. The layout of the
CD was supposed to be taken care of in Germany and should have been
ready by now, but due lack of time, I was asked to do it myself. This
put a lot of pressure on my shoulders to manage to get everything ready
on time, but it seems we’re going to make it! The layout is very cool
and I’m really happy with the result thus far. It has become a
professional product, including many cool photos of the band in the
studio and in the rehearsal room. I want to thank Frederique Sengers for
helping me out on this one. Without her professional attitude it
wouldn’t have been possible to achieve such a big result on such a short
notice. You did a great job!!! Unfortunate, the front cover is still
not finished yet. Due to different reasons, Manuel hasn’t been able to
finish his upcoming master piece yet, so we have to wait for that. I
hope he’ll manage it asap, as I have no doubt it’ll become something
very special!
When everything works out as we want to, Metal
War Productions is going to release an EP with 2 new songs. Those songs
were recorded during the sessions of “Under the Black Cross” and are
called “A Hellish Descent” and “Blast them from the Sky!”. We are going
to use the artwork and title for the aborted 10″ with Blood Storm. So,
for those who haven’t read/heard it yet, the EP is going to be called
“Archaic Undead Fury”. The contract hasn’t been signed yet, but I’m
positive about the outcome. The EP should be accompanied by a poster
featuring the artwork of the 7″. This piece of art was made by Manuel
Tinnemans as well. The layout for this EP is almost ready. From this
point many thanks to Tony Glebbeek for his dedicated work!
So keep your fingers crossed!!!!
