 Bassist Max Power from Helsinki, Finland-based death/black metallers Chaosweaver has issued the following update:
Dear earthlings and dwellers of the Second Sun,
We promised a surprise for you, didn't we? Well, here we go: the
first ever cover track by Chaosweaver is recorded, mixed and mastered.
It was obvious from the very beginning that if we ever record a song
composed by another artist, the track in question must match up to
Chaosweaver's standards both musically and lyrically.
'Crucified' by ARMY OF LOVERS was the perfect choise. Period.
If the first verse starts with a line like "I've seen the deepest
darkness and wrestled with Gods" and the track gushes with pompous
orchestrations, how can you go wrong? The original version of
'Crucified' is a fucking masterpiece, but we thought we'd spice it up
with a few pandemonic flavors. Wanna snatch a taste? Check out a sample
at myspace.com/chaosweaverband.
Even though I did do some shemale vocals on a couple of tracks on
Puppetmaster \Of Pandemonium, we wanted to use a genuine feminine voice
this time... I phoned up a friend of mine, famous Finnish journalist
and presenter Heta Hyttinen. Gladly she agreed to help us out on the
chorus, and did a terriffic job! Thanks to Kalmos of Ajattara for the
tip, we didn't know Heta's such a professional singer.
Here's the good part: the first pressing of Puppetmaster Of
Pandemonium is nearly sold out (collectors: get yours asap!), and
Crucified is going to be the bonus track on the second print! The album
will be released in Finland, Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia on July
30th. If you don't want to buy the whole album, you can purchase the
track from download shops worldwide on the very same day.
We've got tons of other news on the way, so stay tuned!
Where thorns are a teaser,
Max & Chaosweaver."
