Unearth have sent out a press release announcing the details of their current recording work. Instead of trying to poorly reword it, here it is in it's entirety:
We wanted to let everyone know that tracking for the new album has officially begun! We're currently at Zing Studios in Westfield, MA tracking drums with our sit in drummer for the album Justin Foley of Killswitch Engage/Blood Has Been Shed. Foley was an obvious choice for this album for many reasons, but mainly because of his abilities and knowledge of heavy music as well as his long time friendship with the band. A decade plus of friendship has made this an easy transition for the band, Foley and our producer/engineer Adam D.
In other news, we have decided to change the mixing engineer for the album to Mark Lewis (The Black Dahlia Murder, Whitechapel, Devil Driver, Trivium, etc…) from Audiohammer Studios. Mark is another long time friend of the band and we're excited to hear what he can do with our sound on record.
Guitarist Buz McGrath added this irrelevant comment about working with Mark, "Mark Lewis mixed me a drink once and i woke up in a swamp covered in anti freeze."
As we said before, we're aiming at a mid to late June release for the album followed by massive World touring.
Justin Foley on drums? Things just got pretty interesting. I am excited to hear what comes out of these recording sessions. The band also sent us the above screenshot of working track titles. "Adam's Subway Eating Disorder" is in the lead for my favorite track title so far.
