Dutch Death Metallers GOD DETHRONED will enter Berno studio in Sweden during October to commence the recording process for their new album, tentatively titled "The Universal Slavedriver", for a January 2003 release through Metal Blade Records.

THE CROWN finally confirmed to play not only the Tuska Festival in Finland next week with original singer Johan Lindstrand, but also the Party.San Open Air (August 8 – 10) in Bad Berka, Germany. After the split with Tompa the band was not sure if they would find a replacement in time, but luckily Johan offered his services for these two shows. Note that Johan is NOT the old + new singer of THE CROWN, he just helps them out with these two shows. Make sure to catch them at these festivals, probably for the last time with this line-up

The FLESHCRAWL line-up is complete again. The new guitar player is Oliver Gbravac, 20 years of age and living in Friedrichshafen , Germany . He played in a few underground Death Metal bands before. The process of integration concerning the liveset is almost done. Oliver will have his first FLESHCRAWL live appearance at the Wacken Open Air 2002.
