VOIVOD Sign European Deal With NUCLEAR BLAST RECORDS
- Jan. 24, 2006

Nuclear Blast Records has announced the signing of the legendary metal band VOIVOD for the European territory. The Canadian experimental metallers are currently putting the finishing touches on their much-anticipated new album with producer Glen Robinson (VOIVOD's "Nothingface", TEA PARTY, GWAR) at Multisons studio in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. A late spring release is expected.
The follow-up to 2003's "Voivod" is the first album in the band's 20-plus-year career that will not feature founding guitarist Denis "Piggy" D'Amour working alongside his bandmembers in the studio. D'Amour died August 26, 2005 in a Montreal hospital from complications of advanced colon cancer.
In order to record the album, singer Denis "Snake" Belanger, drummer Michael "Away" Langevin and bassist Jason "Jasonic" Newsted are utilizing all of the guitar parts that Piggy had recorded for the record on his laptop with ProTools before his death.
VOIVOD's as-yet-untitled new album will be released in North America on The End Records.

Chophouse is currently "on hold". Maybe Jason is gearing up to concentrate on Voivod stuff.

Sometimes, they grow on you. I didn't like Angel Rat for years, then one day I listened to it and went "Oh! Now I get it!"
Took me awhile to accept the Eric Forrest stuff, too.
I know a lot of people didn't like the self-titled 2003 release, but I loved it. I think I'll dig the new one, too.

I was taking pictures for their Sang Frais interview last night, and they played us the whole album. It's amazing, one of the best CD they ever made. It's brutally heavy, with complex drum parts, great riffs and classic vocals from Snake. I can't wait to blast it from my CD player.
