As the temperature drops everywhere else in the country, things are only getting hotter in Florida as the recording of DEICIDE's 2008 release, "Till Death Do Us Part", grows ever closer to completion.
DEICIDE bassist/vocalist Glen Benton entered the doors of Morrisound studios in Tampa this week to record vocals for the album. Speaking on the matter of how the recording session has been going, Benton summed it up with three simple words. "It's all good."
He added, "The highs are crisp and demonic and the lows are nice and gargly. Just like always." However, everything hasn't been "just like always" as far as this session goes. According to Glen, "Sobriety is fuckin fantastic." Combine that with a nine-month rest and you will see why he feels so rejuvenated. "I'm in the best health of my life and I'm 100% rehabilitated," he said. "I'm clear-headed...a lot more focused and concentrated on what I've got to do."
Glen's greater focus and concentration has allowed him to record his vocals on songs like "Not As Long As We Both Shall Live" and "Till Death Do us Part" with greater ease than ever before. "We're rolling through the shit quickly," he said. "I've got a lot more power in my diaphragm and can do whole paragraphs (of lyrics) at a time."
The songs, however, have proved challenging enough that a even a rejuvenated Glen Benton would have to push himself to the very limit. "The lyrics are a lot faster," he explained. "I had to revamp my vocal stylings to do this...try different techniques."
