Sikth Begin Work On Brand New Album

SikTh have confirmed that they have started work on a new album! Hurrah! 

After reuniting for Download Festival 2014 and releasing their highly acclaimed EP, Opacities back in 2015, the kings of tech metal are set to return this year with a full length album. It will be the Watford pioneers first album since 2006’s Death Of A Dead Day and is set to be release through Millennium Night, a newly created imprint from Snapper Music, home of Peaceville Records & Kscope.

Talking about the album progress frontman Mikee Goodman reveals; “We’ve started recording and it is sounding really vibey so far. This album should be a lot more aggressive than our Opacities EP on the whole. A lot of slamming grooves there, also lots of intricacy and dynamics as always”. He goes on to explain the creative process within the band “There is a formula in SikTh which works well. I always take the lead in the early stages and also I write all lyrics. But of course I am open to Joe Rosser, our new vocalist’s melodic input later on. We have not entered that stage yet. These initial steps are me laying my ideas in, since I have a great studio set up, if I do something awesome now, it goes straight on the record. That’s a great thing because as most vocalists will tell you, it’s all about the vibe and feeling. It’s all about the moment.”
