Portland-based classic heavy metallists SPELLCASTER have finished recording material for their debut release on Prosthetic Records. Due out later this year, the as-yet-untitled effort was recorded at Sharkbite Studios with Zack Ohren (Exmortus, Fallujah, Decrepit Birth).
SPELLCASTER bassist Gabe Franco says,”We’ve wrapped up the recording process for our third album and it turned out better than anyone in the band could have imagined. To say we are excited would be an understatement. These are by far the most professional and well-developed songs SPELLCASTER has had the pleasure of writing and tracking. We also have to give a huge thanks to Zack Ohren and Gabe Johnston, who were instrumental in helping us bring our vision to life. I am being honest when I say the completion of this album has knit the band into one unit, with high spirits and strong determination. 2016 will surely be an exciting year forSPELLCASTER.“
Already boasting a solid and consistent touring itinerary – including past appearances alongside the likes of Night Demon, Exmortus, Gypsyhawk, Skull FIst, Sanctuary, Anvil, Satan, Hirax, Cauldron, Warbringer and Holy Grail, among others – SPELLCASTER will next embark on a spring tour alongside the Canadian metal act Striker. The group will also appear this October at the Frost and Fire II Festival in Ventura, Calif., where they will perform alongside Cirith Ungol, Midnight, Omen and more. A full listing of the band’s upcoming appearances can be found below.
