North Carolina's sludge pillagers
WEEDEATER will enter
Electrical Audio studio in Chicago, Illinois later this month with producer
Steve Albini (
NIRVANA,
NEUROSIS,
PIXIES) to begin recording their fourth album for a late 2010 release. Songtitles set to appear on the CD include
"The Claw Of The Sloth" and
"The Darkening".
WEEDEATER will play a few shows on the way to the studio and back to showcase/road-test the new stuff. A list of dates can be found on the group's
MySpace page.
WEEDEATER's third album,
"God Luck And Good Speed", was released in 2007 on
Southern Lord Recordings; a deluxe double LP version came out in 2009. With the exception of one song (
"Alone"), the entire LP was recorded at
Albini's
Electrical Audio. Remaining true to
WEEDEATER tradition, the album art was provided by
Arik Roper.
