West Virginia forward-thinking thrashers BYZANTINE have posted two new
tracks from their yet-to-be-released album on the band's HYPERLINK
"http://www.myspace.com/byzantine"MySpace page. The new album, entitled
Oblivion Beckons is due out in early January 2008 through Prosthetic
Records.
The tracks "Nadir" and "Expansion and Collapse" showcase the wider range
that Byzantine has pursued on its newest release. "This is the very first
Byzantine album in which all 4 members have contributed songs"
Vocalist/rhythm guitarist OJ states, "and to my ears, it makes for a much
more varied and interesting album from start to finish. This album is one
hell of a ride!"
Pre-orders for Oblivion Beckons will be available shortly, but in the
meantime you can still scoop up BYZANTINE first ever DVD, Salvation
