September 18, 2006

SUSPERIA, the Norwegian band featuring former members of DIMMU BORGIR and SATYRICON, entered StrandStudio in Oslo, Norway at the beginning of August to start work on their fourth studio album, the follow up to 2004's acclaimed release "Unlimited". The band is once again working with Marius Strand, who previously assisted SUSPERIA on 2005's Norwegian Top 20 hit, the "Devil May Care" EP. Recording is expected to be completed by the end of September. SUSPERIA then head out on a short tour in October before returning to Dug-Out Studios in Uppsala, Sweden in November to complete the final mix with Daniel Bergstrand (IN FLAMES, MESHUGGAH, SOILWORK). A release is planned for early 2007 through the Tabu label in Europe and Candlelight Records in the USA. No name for the album has been announced yet, but songtitles revealed so far are "More" (which SUSPERIA performed at this year's Inferno Festival in Norway),"Cut From Stone", "Distant Memory" and "The Clone". The band has added a further date to those previously announced. They will perform at the Motstoy Festival in Notodden, Norway on Friday, October 6.

The band's current confirmed dates for October are:

Oct. 06 - Norway, Notodden, Motstoy Festival
Oct. 07 - Norway, Oslo, Amplifier
Oct. 12 - UK, Nottingham, Rock City
Oct. 13 - UK, London, Camden Underworld

In other news, SUSPERIA bass guitarist Memnock is currently featured in an eight-part TV documentary series on Norway's TVRomerike, charting the build-up to his recent wedding. As well as capturing the big day, TV crews spent several months following the couple's preparations. The series also includes footage of Memnock at work with SUSPERIA at rehearsals, in the recording studio and in concert.

SUSPERIA released its third full-length album, "Unlimited", in 2004 on the Tabu label in Europe and Candlelight in the USA. It has continued to show growth to become the bands best-selling album to date, exceeding the performance of previous albums, "Vindication" and "Predominance", which were released by Nuclear Blast.
