Egyptian-born artist Nader Sadek will soon enter the studio to begin working on his next project: a full-length LP. The upcoming album will feature compositions and performances by some of extreme music's most innovative players. The group will consist of Steve Tucker (formerly of MORBID ANGEL) on vocals, Flo Mounier (CRYPTOPSY) on drums, and Rune Eriksen (AURA NOIR, AVA INFERI and formerly of MAYHEM) on guitar. Guest musicians will be announced soon. Sadek himself will play on and develop all album artwork and concepts. The project represents a continuation of the work showcased on his art installation "Ageless", which took place last November at New York's Santos Party House and consisted of a live death metal performance enshrined in Sadek's nightmarish stage landscape. Some of the songs performed during the installation, will be featured in the upcoming release. The album will be produced by Sadek, recorded and mixed by Steve Tucker, and mastered by Colin Marston (KRALLICE, GORGUTS, JARBOE). The recording will take place in Brooklyn, New York and will be released in the fall on Greyhaze Records.

Says Tucker: "I've been looking forward to doing this recording for months. Nader does some very interesting art and I enjoy helping him achieve his twisted vision. It's rare to get to play alongside a drummer with the abilities that Flo possesses. It's a bonus that I get the opportunity to jam with professionals such as Rune and Flo. It'll be brutal."

Says Mounier: "It's amazing that artists with different backgrounds can come together to create something so extreme and so dark but yet have so much fun doing so! It has been a pleasure working with Nader and Steve in the past and I'm looking forward to experimenting with Rune's unique style, I can't wait to start laying down the extreme with my boys."

Says Eriksen: "When first being approached by Nader to collaborate with him, Steve and Flo, I was immediately caught up by the idea of it. Not only is Nader's concept and reasons for doing this of an inspirational character in itself, but also the very thought of collaborating with musicians such as Steve and Flo seemed like an opportunity not to miss."

Through his association with Attila Csihar (SUNN O))), MAYHEM), Sadek gained considerable exposure as the artist responsible for the stage imagery on MAYHEM's 2009 U.S. tour. The stage sets featured silicone-based sculptures, which resembled entrails and impaled heads, with the centerpiece being a fully detailed flesh-like rendering of the MAYHEM logo. Sadek's work has also included the costumes and silicone "earth masks" worn by Csihar on all his bands. Sadek's use of petroleum-based raw materials is not coincidental. His work revolves around the notion that all petroleum energy originates from death and, in a morbid vicious cycle, also ends in death, where human lives are expendable and sold for the support of an unending addiction to money and power.

Before his work with MAYHEM, Sadek had implemented two very successful interconnecting art projects: "B'Doun Wag'h", a live performance event; and "Faceless", a drawing exhibit featuring recorded music.

Says Sadek: "My general association with death metal deals with the notion of false perceptions, and how great individuality can be smothered by the weight of an overwhelming environment. This idea is ever-present throughout all my work. Each of the players in this album played key roles in their respective bands, facing difficult challenges, and yet taking their bands to higher levels. Their talent as well as their tenacity has always intrigued me. As such, they fit perfectly in this project."

All-Star bands usually suck, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't anticipating this

Nick McMaster's playing bass on this, by the way... I'm not sure why that wasn't in the article.

Wow. Could be pretty crazy, hypothetically
And by crazy, i mean crazy cool

quartertroll · 04-26-2010, 06:50 AM

Blasphemer + Flo, what a weird combination. Very curious to see how those guys will work together. Should still be interesting even if it doesn't work.

Wow, he's moving up in the world. Went from playing bass in a band with my scrubby self to playing on a guest project with Flo Mounier.

FUCK YEA FLO

Johnny-Skinless · 04-26-2010, 10:04 AM

Blasphemer is genius. I think i could listen to him just randomly strumming on guitar for hours.

quartertroll · 04-26-2010, 10:29 AM

Yeah, he's extremely underrated. The last 3 Mayhem albums were basically his music.

open face surgery · 04-26-2010, 11:20 AM

very intriguing.

on a side note,it will be interesting to see where mayhem will go without rune.ardo ad chao was a fuckin masterpiece and one of rune's making.he's also doing a bathory tribute with alan from primordial,nick barker and two others: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3qVdU0QXlg

The audio is pretty poor, but it sounds like quite a bit of ass will be kicked.

Wolff · 04-26-2010, 05:39 PM

hm. this could be totally awesome or totally bad. I hope it comes out sick.

Reincremation · 04-26-2010, 05:51 PM

i'm sure flo will find some way to fuck it up.

Steve Tucker is the weak link. How annoying.

really? why? i always though he was great in MA

De Profoundis · 04-29-2010, 05:51 AM

^^Boring vocals on something that could potentially rule.

phagist_ · 04-29-2010, 06:41 AM

looking forward to this.

quartertroll · 04-29-2010, 08:23 AM

I don't agree about Tucker, he was great in MA. Depends how technical/experimental this stuff is, I think he's better for more heavy/majestic stuff (like "Summoning Redemption".... I DEMAND TO KNOW!).
