Alex Hellid, guitarist Swedish death metal mainstays ENTOMBED has undergone a major operation “which thankfully went very well,” according to a band update. “He is now recovering and looking simultaneously forward to continuing to work with the new Entombed album.”

In June, Screaming Records issued a new Entombed 7″ single, entitled When In Sodom Revisited which featured a cover of the classic KING DIAMOND song ‘Welcome Home’.

Earlier this year Ninetone Records has announced the launch of a new collaboration with Entombed. The band’s 2012 line-up features longtime singer Lars Göran “L.G.” Petrov and guitarist Alex Hellid, alongside guitarist Nico Elgstrand, drummer Olle Dahlstedt and bassist Victor Brandt.

ENTOMBED Covers KING DIAMOND’s ‘Welcome Home’ For New 7″ Single

Screaming Records is issuing new, old and borrowed material from none other than the legendary death ‘n’ rollers from Sweden — ENTOMBED.

While putting final touches to their next full-length album, which is slated for a spring 2013 release, the band has chosen to issue two singles; one is a digital release of a reworked version of the song “Amok”, and the other is a limited seven-inch deluxe vinyl single entitled “When In Sodom Revisited”. Due on June 25, the three-track, 70-gram release includes a remixed and remastered version of the original “When In Sodom” track as well as an alternate version composed, performed and recorded by Danish artist and sound designer Klaus “Q” Hedegaard Nielsen (BETA SATAN, THE MALPRACTICE). To round out the seven-inch, ENTOMBED entered the studio to record an honorable version of the KING DIAMOND signature song “Welcome Home“. As a result, this will actually become the first release by ENTOMBED in the current lineup — with Victor Brandt (TOTALT JÄVLA MÖRKER, AEON, SATYRICON) and second guitarist Nico Elgstrand (who previously played bass for the group).

“When In Sodom Revisited” comes as a one-off print of 475 hand-numbered copies on heavyweight silver colored vinyl. The sleeve has been cut extra thick and comes with a 3-mm spine. It will not come with a dropcard and there will not be a digital release.

Yngwie Malmsteen and Alex Hellid (ENTOMBED) are among the artists being honored at SKAP‘s (Svenska Kompositörer Av Populärmusik, The Swedish Society Of Popular Music Composers) annual ceremony this coming Monday, May 28 at Vinterträdgården, Grand Hôtel in Stockholm.

Every year SKAP awards scholarships and prizes to celebrate Swedish creativity across all musical genres. The awards ceremony takes place in tandem with SKAP‘s annual spring party which is organized with the composers in mind and creativity as the main focus. During the event, there are 13 recipients of a scholarship valued at 40,000 SEK (approximately $5,574) each.

SKAP on Malmsteen: “With his unique way of understanding classical music as well as rock n roll, he has written songs that have made him one of the foreground figures — if not THE foreground figure — for an entire genre. The Swedish Society of Popular Music Composers wish to praise an author whose songwriting skills are often overshadowed by his blazing guitar technique.” Source: Blabbermouth.net
