VADER continues work in Hertz studios. All guitars for “The Empire” are almost done!
“I am so excited with the whole work! New VADER sounds so much more aggressive and intense. I just can’t wait to show the album for our Fans and play them on stage live! It is really hard to compare the new records to any particular VADER album created in the past. There are definitely some “classic” elements in the songs but as a whole “The Empire” sounds more variously, tho’ still very, very brutal. The new VADER deals a lot about war and violence so are the titles: “Tempest”, “Iron Reign”, “Angels of Steel” or “Genosidius”.”

This time Peter was using His classical RAN “InVader” guitars and also old model Gibson Flying V. The amps were Mesa / Boogie Dual Recto (build 1993) , Marshall Plexi (from 70’s) , Randall WARHEAD (whatta name!!!) and EVH 50W.

Spider was working with His new songs in the studio. You will find few words about them right here:
„My first song („Tempest”) was pretty much inspired by so called „old school Death Metal”. This composition develops and turned in middle from classic riff to more modern , „broken” beat. Such kinda adventure from old school to the present. The main riff in next song was inspired by James, when He was playing one of His new drum patterns. We were jamming with that one on couple of sound checks so we created the backbone for „The Last Crusade”. Jimmy has sent me some midi with grooves and I added guitars. „Hexenkessel” from our last album was made in the same way, so I can say, that this is our next song made in team. This is very special tune in pretty modern rhythmic.”
Spider was playing JACKSON Guitars in the studio. There is link to the producer below:
