** SIX FEET UNDER only
Earlier this month, SIX FEET UNDER entered the studio to begin recording the follow-up to last year’s “Killing For Revenge” album.
On Tuesday (June 24),Barnes stated about the progress of the recording sessions for the new SIX FEET UNDER LP: “Lord Marco [drummer Marco Pitruzzella] completed tracking the drums for the new SFU album last week! Jack [Owen, guitarist] will be heading down to Florida in a couple of weeks to start recording guitar at AudioHammer with Jason Suecof! The new songs are groove ridden masterpieces! More info to come!”
“Killing For Revenge” came out in May 2024 through Metal Blade Records. The LP marked the second effort that Barnes and Owen (ex-CANNIBAL CORPSE) had created together since reuniting for 2020’s “Nightmares Of The Decomposed”. Owen also produced “Killing For Revenge”.
SIX FEET UNDER was initially formed as a side project for Barnes during his final years with the band that he co-founded, CANNIBAL CORPSE. It became the frontman’s sole focus in 1995, coinciding with the release of their debut, “Haunted”. Only Barnes remains from SIX FEET UNDER‘s original incarnation, but the quality has remained remarkably consistent. The current lineup of Barnes, guitarists Owen and Ray Suhy, bassist Jeff Hughell and drummer Marco Pitruzzella make for a devastating unit.
While Barnes is the sole remaining member, SIX FEET UNDER is about more than he and Owen. The singer is thrilled with the current lineup, and what each member brings to the table. “Jeff and Marco have been with me for about 10 years,” Barnes said in last year’s press release. “I’m really fortunate that I have probably the best musicians in metal. If you look at it, we have the same amount of original members as CANNIBAL CORPSE. Jeff is a killer bass player. Marco‘s probably the best drummer out there. Jack‘s the greatest songwriter I’ve ever been involved with over the 30-plus years I’ve been doing music professionally. And Ray is just a phenomenal guitarist who can play everything from jazz to death metal. The lineup now is untouchable.”
“Killing For Revenge”, which featured a guest appearance by guitarist Jason Suecof on “Neanderthal”, was mixed and mastered by Chaz Najjar at Badlands Recording in Denver, Colorado. The record was released on CD and digital formats as well as vinyl.
