After nearly four years without a new release, ambidextrous sludge purveyors\u00a0SAMOTHRACE\u00a0<\/strong>were in Soundhouse Studios in their hometown of Seattle with producer Brandon Fitzsimmons (ex-Wormwood) to being the recording of their second LP.<\/p>\n

SAMOTHRACE<\/strong>\u00a0issued the following collective statement about the recording process: \u201cWorking on this album at Soundhouse Studios with Brandon Fitzsimmons is amazing. We were fortunate enough to use the Rolls Royce of analog tape machines. The sound of rolling thunder was an inspiration during the whole process. The songs are as soaring and turbulent as the last album, but a bit more mature. We can\u2019t wait for its release and imminent touring to follow.\u201d<\/p>\n

The LP will tentatively bear two side-long tracks, \u201cWhen We Emerged\u201d and \u201cA Horse Of Our Own.\u201d The hymn \u201cWhen We Emerged\u201d originally appeared on the band\u2019s 2007 demo in a much shorter and raw form, and has here been completely reworked and extended into a new song.<\/p>\n

The album \u2014 its title still TBA \u2014 will be released by mid-2012 via 20 Buck Spin, who also released\u00a0SAMOTHRACE<\/strong>\u2019s\u00a0<\/strong>praised 2008 debut full-length,\u00a0Life\u2019s Trade<\/em>. More info on the new album will be available in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n
