20/05-08 Iskald to enter studio!!
“June 16th the Norwegian black metal band Iskald will head for Berlin to start recording their second full-length album. This time Stamos Koiousis and Vangelis Labrakis from Greece will produce the album.
It has been almost two years since the debut album Shades of Misery was recorded, resulting in a huge uplift for the band. Now they're back and a month with pre-production has just ended. The new material sounds amazing, a new edge and speed has found its way into the band. Iskald sounds blacker than ever before!
The album will be released September 29th by Indie Recordings! More info will follow…”
