ARSIS - New album artwork revealed!

2008-02-13 - Fresh off the stage in Louisville, Kentucky, ARSIS guitarist & vocalist Jim Malone has this to share about artwork for their debut album on Nuclear Blast Records, We Are The Nightmare, slated for release in North America on April 15th:I didn’t have a working relationship with the Riddick brothers before 2004. I was introduced to them by our first label, Willowtip.  When Mark and Mike presented us with our new band logo, we were like, Sweeeeet!” I wanted to keep working with them because of their detail and their pen-and-ink approach, not because they’re obsessed with corpses and maggots. As far as the new album’s artwork, they matched what We Are The Nightmare is about in the sense that my lyrics and music are always very dark, much like their art is. There’s something very striking and unique about their drawings, which explains why I own Mark’s Killustrations art book and why we chose to use their artwork on our merch.
Produced by Zeuss (AGNOSTIC FRONT, HATEBREED, MUNICIPAL WASTE) at Planet Z Studios in Massachusetts and mastered by Alan Douches (KATAKLYSM, UNEARTH, SHADOWS FALL), the track listing for “We Are The Nightmare” is as follows:1.      We Are The Nightmare2.      Shattering The Spell3.      Sightless Wisdom4.      Servants To The Night5.      Failing Winds Of Hopeless Greed6.      Overthrown7.      Progressive Entrapment8.      A Feast For The Liar’s Tongue9.      My Oath To Madness10.   Failure’s ConquestWe Are The Nightmare will be released with a bonus 45-minute DVD that includes the band’s time in the studio, off-stage antics, and some general goofing around.Malone adds:I can honestly say that this was the best recording experience that I have had in my years with ARSIS.  Not only was Zeuss great to work with, but Ryan (Knight, guitarist), Darren (Cesca, drummer), and Noah (Martin, bassist) all did an outstanding job.  We all worked together to create what I feel is the most accomplished ARSIS album to date. I can still listen to the songs, and that’s a good sign.ARSIS are currently on tour with label mates EXODUS and just announced their headlining tour with SKELETON WITCH and VEIL OF MAYA.
