September 27, 2007

San Francisco punk rock/metal wrecking ball APIARY has tapped TODAY IS THE DAY frontman/recording engineer Steve Austin (CONVERGE, LAMB OF GOD, DEADGUY, CABLE, UNSANE) to helm the recording sessions for the group's second album for Ironclad/Metal Blade Records. The band will enter Austin Enterprise in Nashville, Tennessee on February 11, 2008 to begin recording the new CD — APIARY's first to feature new vocalist Makh Daniels, guitarist Chris Brock and drummer Dan Sneddon. Songtitles set to appear on the album include "The Man in Black Fled Across The Desert", "Borrowed Teeth, Borrowed Claws", "Safety Net Acrobat", "Hand Over Hand, With Rope They Wait Below, Sing Me A Song, Sing Me A Song Now, Jim Crow", "My Wife, My Widow" and "First Name: William. Last name: Porter. (Beware The Low Men In Yellow Coats)". Guests set to appear on the record include Steve Austin (TODAY IS THE DAY),Dan Weyandt (ZAO),and Aaron Hall (CALIFORNIA LOVE).

Vocalist Makh Daniels says: "Steve Austin is the fucking man. Not only has he recorded some of our favorite releases, but shit man, that dude is insane. Literally. Hand-stamped and everything. Have you ever heard TODAY IS THE DAY? It sounds like a carnival getting torched during the goddamn apocalypse! There are even children still on the rides! That is some fucked up shit! He will probably make us eat glass and record underwater with Great White sharks and shit, I don't fuckin' know. He will definitely take our new songs, which are way more punk and nasty, to a whole new level with his recording expertise."

APIARY will hit the road in October with THE FUNERAL PYRE (Prosthetic Records) for three weeks.
