Avatar have begun work on their new album with producer Sylvia Massy (Tool, Powerman 5000). The group will be splitting their time amongst three studios, including: Castle Studios in Röhrsdorf, Germany, Finnvox Studios in Helsinki, Finland and Spinroad Studios in Lindome, Sweden. Frontman Johannes Eckerström commented:
“Every band makes a point out of saying they’re pushing boundaries, but I see few who keep on challenging themselves the way we do. There is no formula, no cheapness, no shortcuts. We are once again embarking on a journey completely new to us.”
The group are documenting those sessions via avatarmetal.com.
