Johan Hegg of AMON AMARTH has laid down guest vocals on the forthcoming fourth album from Swedish death metallers EVOCATION. The as-yet-untitled CD is being recorded in part at IF Studios, the IN FLAMES-owned facility in Gothenburg, Sweden, with producer Roberto Laghi (IN FLAMES, SONIC SYNDICATE, HARDCORE SUPERSTAR). A late 2012 release is expected via the band’s new label home, Century Media Records.
Commented EVOCATION: “Do we need to say that [Johan] did an amazing job? As always when Johan is around, it’s easy to think that the thunder is roaring outside, when, in fact, it’s just his mighty voice which makes you think so! Thanx, Johan, for an amazing job!”
EVOCATION recently parted ways with bassist Martin “Tore” Toresson and is currently seeking a replacement. Source: Blabbermouth.net
