Immortal to Start Recording First Abbathless Album in January

Immortal, now featuring 100% less Abbath, have released the following intel via their Facebook page:

IMMORTAL starts recording their new album in Abyss Studio in January 2017!

IMMORTAL will start recording their ninth album in January 2017.

“The songs have been ready for some time, but we wanted to record it at the right place and time. We will once again work with Peter Tägtgren at Abyss Studio who produced our four last albums. The band will enter the studio during wintertime to have the right atmosphere.

We look forward to record and present the new album to the IMMORTAL hordes sometime in 2017.

The tracks that will appear on the album are: ‘Northern Chaos Gods’, ‘Into Battle Ride’, ‘Gates To Blashyrkh’, ‘Blacker Of Worlds’, ‘Where Mountains Rise’, ‘Grim And Dark’, ‘Called To Ice’, and ‘Ravendark’.

I remain vvvverrrryyyy skeptical about Immortal’s chances for making a good album having lost such a key member. But Tägtgren’s involvement is certainly encouraging. Hopefully I’m munchin’ on my hat this time next year.
