TAU CROSS, das Punk/Metal Kollektiv um Amebix Bassist/Frontmann Rob “The Baron” Miller, Voivod Drummer Michel “Away” Langevin plus Mitgliedern von Misery und War//Plague, haben ihr neues Album namens "A Pillar of Fire" fertiggestellt.

Aufgenommen wurde das Album an den verschiedensten Orten: Schlagzeug in Montreal, Gitarren in Minneapolis, Bass in Seattle und Minneapolis und der Gesang auf der Isle of Skye in Schottland.
Sänger Rob “The Baron” Miller dazu:
“This approach can be challenging given the location of the band members, but it is a necessity that we have tried to turn into a strength. Video conferencing and messenger services have been helpful in guiding the process to completion.

The album was mixed at Smiddy studios on the isle of Skye by James Adams who has also taken on duties as our keyboard player. We have had contributions from Themis for some of the ambient sounds on the album, a Hurdy Gurdy from Tanner Anderson and even bagpipes from 16-year-old Scottish virtuoso Brighde Chaimbeul, so there are some interesting textures, with an emphasis on the lyrical content. As usual, we have constructed a few intriguing landscapes for the listener to engage with.”

A Pillar of Fire soll im Sommer 2017 bei Relapse Records erscheinen.
