God Dethroned drummer Ariën van Weesenbeek has agreed to sit behind the drum kit for Aborted\'s upcoming cd-release shows in support of their new album. Titled \"Slaughter & Apparatus: A Methodical Overture\", the cd is set for a February 20 release via Century Media Records. The dates for the release shows are as follows:According to a press release, \"Slaughter & Apparatus: A Methodical Overture\" is an astounding new album:
\"[It\'s] refreshing, massive and graced with all trademarks of an instant classic: memorable and inventive song structures, over-the-top musicianship, a natural and warm yet up-to-date production and a feel of timelessness rarely seen in the genre nowadays. Aborted are more than prepared to shatter the boundaries of extreme metal and set new standards.\"
The disc was recorded at Denmark\'s Antfarm Studios with producer/engineer Tue Madsen (Himsa, The Haunted). All drums for this album were recorded by David Haley from Psycroptic. The cd includes guest vocal performances by Jeff Walker (ex-Carcass) and Jacob Bredahl (HateSphere).
Thanks to Ariën\'s aid, the Belgian metallers can keep on auditioning for a new sticksman in relaxed conditions.
For their 2006 tour Aborted had recruited Etienne Gallo as their touring drummer, a job he shared with David Haley.
