Obituary in the studio

Florida-based death metal legends Obituary have entered the studio to begin recording their new album on Candlelight Records.

Guitarist Ralph Santolla said "Trevor [Peres, guitar] finished his tracks yesterday, and I'm doing solos now. The new stuff is Heavy, some of my favorite OBI riffs yet. Trevor's guitar sounds huge and menacing. If you like Obituary, you're gonna love this record."

Obituary's most recent studio album, "Xecutioner's Return", came out in 2007 and they recently released the "Left To Die" EP, which contains four songs: two new originals, a new studio recording of "Slowly We Rot" (which originally appeared on their 1989 classic debut with the same title), and a cover of "Dethroned Emperior" by Celtic Frost.
