Napalm Death At Work On New LP

BY Josiah HughesPublished Jul 30, 2008

Birmingham-based grindcore grandpas have announced they’ve returned to the studio. At work on their first material since 2006’s Smear Campaign, the record will likely hit later this year or in early 2009.

Vocalist Mark "Barney” Greenway revealed the band's plans via a news posting on the Napalm Death homepage:

As always, when trying to decide when we should enter the studio, we threw a dart at a dartboard and, sadly, for all our sanities' sakes, it landed on a date which was sooner rather than later. It's all working out good with about 10-12 songs complete thus far. It will be intense, naturally, and like always we'll be looking to move things along a notch production-wise and stylistically. Conceptually, it will, generally speaking, be a tale of analyzing life and stripping it back to the point where I'm asking the question: why are we killing ourselves to get ahead and not appreciating the real simplistic, beautiful things around us? If that sounds hippy-ish, I don't care, ha ha.
