Swiss Metal experimentalists Samael are currently working on the follow-up to their 2007 release "Solar Soul". Entitled "Above", the upcoming album will see the band return to their roots after a 20-year-long career. Frontman Vorph had the following to say:
""Above" is a Metal album through and through. It embedded a lot of memorable influences: Bathory, Slayer, IRON MAIDEN…to name just a few bands that shaped the sound of Samael in the first place. It is like an enhanced version of the band`s first 3 or 4 albums. Some might say the Missing Link between "Ceremony of opposites" and "Passage"".
Proof for these awesome predictions can be found in March 2009, when "Above" will be released via Nuclear Blast.
