Danish modern metallers MNEMIC have recently entered the Antfarm studios in Aabyhøj, Denmark with long time producer Tue Madsen (BEHEMOTH, THE HAUNTED, SICK OF IT ALL) to record their 5th yet untitled new album. At the same time they’ve started to capture their working progress in the form of a studio video blog. The fourth episode of this video report is online now:
Danish modern metallers MNEMIC recently entered Antfarm studios in Aabyhøj, Denmark with longtime producer Tue Madsen (THE HAUNTED, HIMSA, SICK OF IT ALL) to begin recording their new album for a June release via Nuclear Blast Records.
The third in a series of webisodes featuring behind-the-scenes footage from the recording sessions can be seen below.
Working songtitles set to appear on the new MNEMIC album:
* Empty Planet
* Haven At The End Of The World
* Valves
* Blue Desert In A Black Hole
* Transcend
* Junkies On The Storm
Commented Mircea Gabriel Eftemie: “We’ve been together for a long time, and I am sad to see the guys not being there anymore, as we once used to. We were not able to work as a unit anymore, due to many reasons, being personal and even logistical. That is why we have chosen to part ways. It has not been easy at all, since lots of turns have taken place in our personal lives and, unfortunately, this has been the only solution. It’s been a spirit-crusher for me, not being able to create music, being creative and share the passion we once used to have. The band needs to tour a lot more, go to places we haven’t been, play for audiences that crave the music we make — and this is exactly what we intend to do with a new lineup. Apparently there is still a demand for our machine, and we are grateful for that. Therefore we are now reloading it by making a new album to be released in 2012, followed by an intensive touring schedule.”

Commented the band: “One week ago we entered the Antfarm studios, right before the black metal winter kicked in, here in Scandinavia. It’s an awesome and great feeling being back with our friend, uncle, buddy and long time producer Tue Madsen, working together on a new MNEMIC album. More the fact that we all are gathered in the same house (with dogs, girlfriends and homies we haven’t seen in a while), it makes it all like one big happy family.

Danish modern metallers MNEMIC will enter Antfarm studios in Aabyhøj, Denmark in February 2012 with longtime producer Tue Madsen (THE HAUNTED, HIMSA, SICK OF IT ALL) to begin recording their new album for a June 2012 release via Nuclear Blast Records. MNEMIC recently parted ways with drummer Brian “Brylle” Rasmussen and guitarist Rune Stigart and replaced them with Brian Larsen and Victor-Ray Salomonsen, respectively.
MNEMIC 2011 is:
Guillaume Bideau – Vocals Mircea Gabriel Eftemie – Guitar Victor-Ray Salomonsen – Guitar Simone Bertozzi – Bass Brian Larsen – Drums
Commented Mircea Gabriel Eftemie: “We’ve been together for a long time, and I am sad to see the guys not being there anymore, as we once used to.

Added vocalist Guillaume Bideau: “Obeast in April and now Brian and Rune are not part of the band anymore. It’s a very weird feeling, because a band, as often said, is like another family to you. It will be more than strange not to see their faces anymore on stage, in the rehearsal, in the studio and in all the other places we were used to share together. But we’re still friends and that’s the most important.
“We cannot look into the past, we have to be moving forward.
“I think this new lineup is the best we could have and Simone, Victor and Brian are great, creative and dedicated musicians. On top of that, they are great guys, so it could not be better.
“Today MNEMIC‘s face on stage is different — but what are we here for!? To play some fucking metal and kick some asses! And this will not change, I promise.”
Peek From The Pit conducted an interview with guitarist Mircea Gabriel Eftemie Denmark-based “future fusion metallers” MNEMIC at the Euroblast festival, which was held October 21-22, 2011 in Cologne, Germany. You can now watch the chat below.
