Das Label schreibt:
"Long Beach thrashers HIRAX will release their highly-anticipated new studio
album "El Rostro de la Muerte" ("The Face of Death") on November 16th 2009.
It is the veteran thrash band's first full-length since 2004's "The New Age
Of Terror".
"El Rostro de la Muerte" is a dual-studio effort, combining the skills of
two HIRAX producers which the band has worked with on their past 3 releases.
The ten new tracks were recorded and engineered by John Haddad at Trench
Studio in Corona, CA, and mixed by Michael Rozen at Speed Semen Clove
Factory in North Hollywood. The new CD will also contain 1 bonus track
from the "Chaos and Brutality" EP, which was released on Selfmadegod two
years ago.
"The combination of Haddad and Rozen's recording and production are perfect
for the vision that we had for the sound of this album," said HIRAX vocalist
Katon W. De Pena. "We worked with Haddad on the last 2 HIRAX EPs, "Assassins
of War" and "Chaos and Brutality". He has a great understanding of the
power and speed of HIRAX, and he knows how to bring the best of our talents
to the surface. We have a lot of respect for him. HIRAX first worked with
Michael Rozen back in 2004 on "The New Age of Terror" album and it's great
to be working with him again. His experience in mixing and production are
what we need to complete the mega-epic sound that we are striving for. It's
the first time HIRAX has ever brought two of our producers together, but it
seemed like the logical thing to do since they both have an ear for detail
and a certain work ethic which brings out the best in the band. Musically,
it combines everything that HIRAX is known for and much, much more!
TRUE THRASH METAL!"
"El Rostro de la Muerte" will be released on Selfmadegod Records on CD and
on 12"LP early next year via Selfmadegod and Fast & Furious Records.
