Deicide To Begin Working On New Album


Deicide

Deicide is working on album number 12 and are expected to spent much of 2015 working on it. Drummer Steve Asheim said:

“We have a tour of Europe scheduled for December… Other than that, we got picked up for another record, so we’re gonna start working on some new stuff, which we’ve got a couple of songs kind of framed out already. So we’re gonna be busy again all through next year — next couple of years, it looks like. [We’re gonna work on] a record and [play] some more shows. It seems like they’re gonna happen, so [I’m] looking forward to all that.”

On Deicide’s longevity:

“It’s good to see that [the metal scene] is still going. It’s weird when you hear kids talk about the band: ‘We listened to you in high school.’ It’s like you hear that for years about how kids are listening to us in high school. So it’s, like, we’ve been an ever-lasting presence in high schools for twenty years now. So, as we become multi-generational, it’s, like, we have 50-year-old fans and then we still have 15-year-old fans that roll up [to see us play]. It’s like the thing that… When I was a kid, [what] BLACK SABBATH was, it’s, like, that’s what we’ve become — not in a selling sense, but in a how-people-think-about-your-band sense. I don’t know… It’s just a wild thing to have happen.”
