Born of Osiris are gearing up for another record due out in the summer of 2013 (according to statements made by the band earlier this year). On a scale of one to stoked, how bad do you want this?
Born of Osiris have begun tracking some pre-production tracks up in 37 Studios with Nick Sampson (lead guitarist of I Am Abomination). Their upcoming effort will not include Jason Richardson, who shredded the living hell out of The Discovery, but I'm not all too concerned.
Sure, Jason could shred and riff like a madman, but everyone underestimates the ridiculous combination of drummer Cameron Losch's ability to play everything (including keys, as we saw on a studio update in 2011), and Lee's obvious guitar abilities and sweet penchant for programming and key tones.
The bottom line is that I think the band are going to be really damn good with or without Jason. Also, notice Cam's contribution to the music when he's on guitar- sounds a whole hell of a lot like A Higher Place, doesn't it? Man, if we could get a combo of The Discovery and A Higher Place on one disc, the award for "Album of the Year 2013" would just be handed out right the and there. I'm hopeful we'll get to hear something from the Born of Osiris camp soon that doesn't come in the form of a small clip of music- I'm too excited for new jams by those guys for anything else!
