Single Bullet Theory are eyeing a fall release from their brand new CD, IV, which will be released as part of a new two-album deal with Goomba Music. The new CD contains 10 tracks featuring new members John Ruszin III (guitar), Jeff Kalber (bass) and Acacio Carvalho (drums). All drum tracks were recorded at Clay Creek Studio in Newark, Delaware with engineer Nick Rotundo. The remainder of the record is being recorded at Ruszin's studio in Wenonoh, New Jersey.
"IV" will be mixed by John Ruszin III, mastered by James Murphy (Testament, Death). The record will also contain six bonus tracks from previous sessions, including a guest performance from Matt Thompson (King Diamond) on a cover of Death's "Spirit Crusher" as well as a revamped version of "The Hurt That Never Ends" (previously released
on Single Bullet Theory's 2004 record, "Behind Eyes of Hatred".
Described as "a much more musically diverse yet [more] muscular" effort than the band's previous releases, "IV" will also feature an eight-minute instrumental track called "Auctioneer of Souls" as well as guest appearances by Tim Roth (Into Eternity), Jed Simon (Strapping Young Lad, Zimmers Hole), Jack Frost (Seven Witches), Mark Simpson (Flotsam And Jetsam, Beautiful Creatures) and others. Look for a late September /early October release date soon.
