Deicide-Till Death Do Us Part, don't know the release date.
Satyricon-Don't know Title or Date but new relase will occur in early 2008.

Speaking of Satyricon Frost broke his leg, so their definitely won't be a Satyricon in early 08, more like Fall or Winter.

 

[Matt]

Well they were saying it was scheduled for later 08 anyways

 

[The Ozzman]

Worst case scenario, Satyr could hire Hellhammer as session drummer

 

[Zephyrus]

Worst-case?

 

[Matt]

Hellhammer would not work in the mighty 'con

 

[skeptik]

Hellhammer overdrums so fucking much to the point that it's just obtrusive.

I dont get how that comment was not posted faster by someone else.

I know he did, according to their website they're doing other things with the album as to not hinder the process, but I still think it'll be undoubtedly pushed back. Frost is a distinct drummer from Hellhammer, he worked well for Dimmu Borgir though, had some good fills, especially on The Foreshadowing Furnace, I'm guessing they'll keep Frost for the record though.
