ICS VORTEX To Handle Lead Vocals On GOD OF ATHEISTS Album - Nov. 27, 2011





Former DIMMU BORGIR and current BORKNAGAR member ICS Vortex (real name: Simen Hestnæs) will handle the lead vocals on the upcoming debut album from GOD OF ATHEISTS, the Norwegian extreme metal project led by Asgeir Mickelson (SARKE, SPIRAL ARCHITECT, BORKNAGAR, TESTAMENT). Drums on the CD were recorded by Trym (EMPEROR, ZYKLON, ENSLAVED), while the rhythm guitars were laid down by Mickelson.



Commented Asgeir: "GOD OF ATHEISTS is the extreme metal project which I wrote most of the music for in 2008. One song were originally written for BORKNAGAR back in 2004, but was never finished, so I rewrote it and it's now way too fruital for BORKNAGAR's style. The overall style is kind of 'Norwegian black metal done death metal.' It's fruital but also very melodic.



"Both Mr. Vortex and I are looking forward to work on this album the upcoming months, and I'm sure Vortex's awesome vocal style will add a new dimension to the songs. I just need to write some venomous lyrics first… Thankfully, there's a lot of venom in my head…"



He added, "And if you like a project with Trym, Vortex and me, I think you will like the other musicians who've agreed to play on it."

i like the people involved here, but man do i really really hate the band name

[Hugo.]

It makes sense if you really really think about it hard.

[jawn galliano]

do they write songs about richard dawkins and christopher hitchens and shit, and also maybe some popular science blogs?



'cuz then it'd make a lot of sense to me

[droidspawn]

the god delusion

[Hugo.]

And how do you feel about the book of the same name LOL

his games are exemplary in showing you can radically over-promise, under-deliver, and still make millions. he is basically the nader sadek free NYC show of videogames.

I'm talking about author Stefan Molyneux, not (apparently shitty) game designer Peter Molyneux.

[jawn galliano]

oh, the bald hard-on bearer? i've seen some of his videos, he's an idiot. but i'm not sure what he has to do with this thread

[Abzu]

Stefan Molyneux is the author of the book God of Atheists.

oh, i missed that somehow well either way he's dumb/crazy/a libertarian, so i certainly wouldn't suggest reading his books. not having read any of them, i can still sum them up for you: private property is the most important thing in existence, government is always bad and inherently evil and should be abolished, markets should be used for everything and never regulated, and somehow that will make a functional, freedom-maximizing society. oh also something something the gold standard. he's like a bald canadian ayn rand, and nobody wants anything to do with that

[Methuselah Honeysuckle]

Its a dumb name

[jawn galliano]

correct!
