BROKEN HOPE Taps James Murphy for New Album, 'Omen of Disease,' Featuring Guest Appearance by THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER's Trevor Strnad

[PRESS RELEASE]

BROKEN HOPE has finished all recording work on their 6th studio album, Omen of Disease, and one of the many surprises that this album offers is a special guest appearance by Trevor Strnad of THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER on the new BROKEN HOPE track, "Rendered Into Lard."

Trevor Strnad comments:
"I am beyond excited to be involved in the rebirth of this legendary Death Metal monster. BROKEN HOPE has been one of my favorite bands since I was a young metalhead, it's an absolute honor and pleasure to be a small piece of the action! The best part is that my contribution allowed me to hear a new song before everyone else, and I can proudly say this: They're baaaacccckkk!!!!"

BROKEN HOPE has also tapped James Murphy (DEATH, OBITUARY, TESTAMENT, etc.) to mix and master Omen of Disease at Murphy's studio, Safehouse Production.

BROKEN HOPE's Shaun Glass comments:
"Were pretty pumped to have long time friend and shred lord James Murphy on board for his über-sick mixing skills to complete the 'Omen of Disease' sessions. He has been part of BH history as he first appeared on our 'Repulsive Conception' album with a crushing guest solo...and now years later, Murphy will be on board to taking our finest works yet to a new level."

Omen of Disease was recorded between two studios: drums were exclusively recorded at Belle City Sound in Racine, WI with engineer Chris Wisco (LAZARUS A.D., JUNGLE ROT, ORIGIN, GORGASM), and the remaining bulk of the album was completed at Mercenary Digital Studios in Zion, IL with engineer Scott Creekmore (BROKEN HOPE, DIRGE WITHIN, LIVIDITY). Omen of Disease is slated for a worldwide release in late summer 2013 via Century Media Records. Stay tuned for more details about this new BROKEN HOPE album coming soon!
