NERVECELL Completes Writing New Album
 
Hey everyone!

We are really thrilled that the writing process for the new album has been successfully completed and the band is eager to enter the studio next month and start recording. We've been working really hard on this record through out this year and in between the tours we've had in Europe and Asia. All the pre-production for the songs are done and we're very happy with how everything has turned out for us so far.

The new songs are sounding aggressive, fast and dark! The fans can expect a heavy dosage of old school death metal, modern thrash metal, intertwined with our touch of Eastern melodies and brutality. Needless to say there will be more exciting news and surprises featured on this new record to follow.

The new (as-yet-untitled) album is set for a release early 2011 on Lifeforce Records (Europe) / Spellbind Records (Middle East). This will mark the follow up to the much anticipated 2009 debut "Preaching Venom" which was released in Europe in October 2009 on Lifeforce Records.

The album title and more details will be announced in the upcoming weeks, so make sure you stay tuned!

Follow NERVECELL on Twitter at www.twitter.com/nervecellband and join the official NERVECELL Facebook Page www.facebook.com/nervecell to receive quick updates on the new album!

Cheers!

BILLBOARD MAGAZINE "Preaching Venom" review
 
We received a great review for "Preaching Venom" album from the renowned Billboard Magazine (USA), read it below:
 
"After an unprecedented European tour in the fall of 2009, death metal/thrash band Nervecell—based in the city of Dubai in the United Arab Emirates—not
only became the biggest-ever metal export from the Middle East, but the group signed a European deal with German label Lifeforce Records to re-release
full-length "Preaching Venom" late last year. Emphasis track "Flesh and Memories", produced by the band with Kiran Sequeira, upholds its eminent
auditory assault, as vocalist James Khazaal grunts, growls and grimaces through a lyric that warns, "Welcome to the dawn of lunacy, as a slave
you're bound by their tyranny/All that is pure is now destroyed, death to the weak and the ignorant." Instrumental chaos mounts from all sides, thanks
to lead guitars from Rami Mustafa, additional chords from Barney Ribeiro and Louis Rando on percussion. With a long list of live global feats—the Dubai
Desert Rock Festival, Egypt Metal Festival in Cairo, Australia's Metalstock Festival, Metalcamp Festival in Slovenia, Morocco's Casa Gateways Festival—the band is currently gigging across Europe, including stops in the Netherlands, Denmark, Holland, Germany, Poland, the Czech Republic, and
Rome, Paris and London. If there were ever any question about death metal's eternal following, the response is clear in one word: Nervecell
."

Greetings everyone!

We just released a bunch of photos from our recent tour - SUFFOCATION Legacy Of Blood Europe/UK Tour 2010 which took place in March/April with Suffocation, Annotations of An Autopsy, Fleshgod Apocalypse and Burning the Masses.

The tour was an amazing experience and needless to say one of the peaks in our career! We would like to thank all the bands, the crew; Jeroen, Thomas, Didi and Yannick for being such a killer bunch of guys to work with. Thank you all for making every night on this tour a blast! Horns up to all the fans who came to the shows!

To actually meet our idols SUFFOCATION (let alone share a bus and tour with them) and they turn out being such genuine dudes more than you could of imagined is something that we admired the most!

NERVECELL to support DEICIDE in Turkey
 

We are very proud to announce that NERVECELL will finally be making our way to Istanbul, Turkey next month with none other than American Death Metal legends DEICIDE @ Studio Live Club - May 28, 2010. Turkish bands Moribund Oblivion and Hecatomb are also scheduled to appear.

We are really stoked as not only is this going to be one hell of a special gig for us to share the stage with DEICIDE but it also marks the first ever appearance for both DEICIDE and NERVECELL to perform live in Turkey.

Turkey has always been a country that NERVECELL have wanted to perform in as part of our past tours having noticed our fan base on the rise there. After having just completed the Legacy of Blood European / UK Tour 2010 with SUFFOCATION last month, this is definitely something we look forward to getting back on the road to and obviously a gig not to miss!

NERVECELL is also set to perform at the renowned Dorock Club in Istanbul on Saturday May 29, 2010.
