Monster drummer Tony Laureano, known from his work for Nile, God Dethroned, Dimmu Borgir and Angel Corpse among others, has posted an update on his official website.\"Napalm Death\'s Shane Embury has taken the bass slot and we are now officially a four-piece. There will be some late November rehearsals where the music for the debut album will be finalized. We are hoping to record said album in the spring of 2006.\"
Before Laureano left Norway this past August, he recorded three tracks of \"savagely innovative black metal\" with members of Spiral Architect, Satyricon, and Lunaris. The drummer will return to Norway in a few weeks to record 6 or 7 more songs for this album which is due out next spring.
Speaking about unnamed projects, Tony Laureano continures his update with project number two:
\"This was supposed to be the \"Darkmoon\" album done with my former Nile bandmate Jon Vesano, but we\'re going to call it something else. What? We don\'t know yet, but a demo is finished, and we are in the process of shopping it around so we can record a full album soon.\"
Tony Laureano finishes his message rather cryptic, claiming he is goiing to Japan and Korea in December with \"soon-to-be-named band #1\"\" and he will start a three-week run of select shows in the U.S., Mexico, and South America with \"soon-to-be-named band #2\" in late January 2006.
