We are currently writing the new album , it involves more than ever al the bandmembers in the process
beeing active in creating ; the new one is still gonna be brutal , and since we've all progressed a lot
on our skills , it's definatly going to be an album that lifts up Vermin to a higher level.
The material that is finished sofar , is received very well ; we record songs that are finished as a pre-demo
since 3 of us are also experienced audio engineers with the proper equipment , this way we can also discover possible
difficulties while recording for real , kind of in the way "A Nihilistic Swarm" was made ...
We are still considdering how and where we will record and mix and master the new cd , and we probably
start recording in the end of this year ; when it is finished ( recorded,mixed and pressed ) we will do
a little minitour presenting the new album in the Netherlands , Belgium and most likely with another leg
into Germany , planning these gigs right now , negotiating with some special guests as well ...
