Nieuws uit het Deicide-kamp
In Terrorizer staat te lezen dat de niewue deal die Deicide heeft getekent
bij Earache hen iets biedt wat ze bij Roadrunner niet kregen: Steun!
"We signed the contract on Halloween day. We picked a good day for it,"
verklaarde zanger/bassist Glen Benton. "We signed for one record and we’ll see
how it goes. If everyone’s happy, we’ll sign for another. We need a label to
provide us with promotion, a label that’s glad to have us. It seems they wanna
get all the extreme bands. They wanna support this shit and keep it goin’."
"We’d been talkin’ to ’em for a while, man," vertelde Benton over de deal.
"We laid low for a little while and I talked to a lot of record companies, but
Earache were the only ones to offer the deal that we wanted. We’ve been doin’
this for years and we need a deal that’s not all in the label’s favor."
De stelling dat Deicide eigenlijk al afgeschreven is wuift Benton dan ook
weg: "We’ve got more material than we know what to do with! Now we’re doing
records for us so it’s back to the old thinking and the old ways of writing.
We’re writing to beat all — that’s the way we do things. We’re goin’ back to our
roots — who cares about musical logic? Fuck musical logic."
Deicide duikt de studio in rond maart 2003.
