JamPlay recently conducted an interview with
Emil Werstler of Atlanta's
DAATH, an up-and-coming talent in the guitar scene and the newest
JamPlay instructor. Watch the chat below.
In a recent entry of his
"Jumping Darkness Parade" blog for
MetalSucks,
DAATH guitarist
Eyal Levi revealed that he and
Werstler are working on a record with
CYNIC drummer
Sean Reinert, to be released in the spring of 2010 on
Magna Carta Records. He also indicated that
DAATH will return to the studio in April 2010 to begin recording the follow-up to this year's
"The Concealers".
DAATH's sophomore album,
"The Concealers" debuted at No. 35 on the Top New Artist Albums (Heatseekers) chart, which lists the best-selling albums by new and developing artists, defined as those who have never appeared in the Top 100 of The Billboard 200.
"The Concealers" was released in April through
Century Media Records (via a partnership with
Roadrunner Records). The album was produced and mixed by
Jason Suecof and
Mark Lewis (
TRIVIUM,
ALL THAT REMAINS,
DEVILDRIVER).
DAATH filmed a video for
"Day Of Endless Light" in March in the band's hometown of Atlanta with director
Robin Fuller (
GHOST OF A THOUSAND,
SHAPED BY FATE).
