Produced, engineered and mixed by Rikard Löfgren in his own Leon music studios, Opus Mortis VIII proves to be the best sounding VOMITORY album ever!

Comments VOMITORY drummer Tobias Gustafsson: “Opus Mortis VIII is our eighth album (no shit!) – our eighth Opus of Death. And I dare to say that this is one of the strongest albums we’ve done, and it most certainly has the most powerful production we’ve ever had on any album, hands down. For the third time, we worked with Rikard Löfgren in his Leon Music Studios. We raised the bar quite a few notches in the studio – both production-wise and performance-wise, and we couldn’t be happier with the result. We are not breaking new death metal ground with this album – that was never Vomitorys’ mission – but Opus Mortis VIII offers diversity and dynamics that you haven’t quite heard from Vomitory before. Still, this is a very intense and aggressive album in the true Vomitory tradition – all the essential signature details are there. Once you hear the opening track, “Regorge In The Morgue”, you will need no further proof of that!”

Opus Mortis VIII will be released the 23rd/26th of April, 2011 via Metal Blade Records in Europe! The limited first edition will be a Digipak featuring four exclusive bonus tracks. Those tracks are re-recorded versions of songs taken off the first two VOMITORY albums.
