BESTIA IMMUNDIS (DIGIPAK)

The new album quot;Bestia Immundisquot; is aggressive and powerful just like all albums by Assassin. However this time it turned out even more varied. The wide mix of speed and thrash metal with hardcore and punk influences includes even faster and more catchy songs as well as experimental tracks and darker elements. The production has been a bit cumbersome due to scheduling conflicts but the final product turned out even better than expected. The sound is similar to the sound on the last album quot;Combat Cathedralquot; (they used the same recording and master studio) but sounds a tad heavier. Most of the songs were once again composed by Jürgen quot;Scholliquot; Scholz. This time however bassist Joachim Kremer was also involved in the songwriting process thus having contributed to 4 songs on the new album. Just like on quot;Combat Cathedralquot; all lyrics were written by Ingo Bajonczak. The album title quot;Bestia Immundisquot; (Latin for quot;unclean beastquot;) refers to the great beast from the Prophecy of the Apocalypse in the Bible (Book of Revelation Chapter 13). Likewise the title can be placed in relation to people in general who according to Johann Wolfgang von Goethe can be quot;(.. ) more a beast than any beast as yetquot. (see Faust Part I)The cover artwork of the album also reflects the fight against the inner (and evil) human instincts - the Bestia Immundis.
