Shane Embury On New Napalm Death Record: “I Don’t Think The Album Will Be Released Until Early 2020”

During an interview with Extreme Metal Festival News, Napalm Death’s Shane Embury offered an update on the band’s new album. The effort is almost finished, but the bassist said he thinks they are going to wait until early 2020 to release it.

Embury said the following:

“The music for the new album has been recorded now since June of last year and it was done in two sessions. Mitch did come over and record guitars on the new record, but all the compositions were written by myself, which was quite a challenge to make it all flow but at the same time hopefully have diversity, which I think it has. Barn has nearly recorded all his vocal parts.

We have been playing so many shows in support to ‘Apex’ and, of course, the ‘Coded Smears And More Uncommon Slurs’ compilation, and there’s more shows already booked coming up towards the end of September, so we have decided to take our time with this album. We have a strong amazing album title, but I don’t think the album will be released now until early 2020.”
