As previously reported, the Slovakian metal band Signum Regis is recording their fourth album. Earlier today the band reported the following:
‘It’s been a couple of days, so here is a little update for you, our friends. Drums and bass are recorded for 3 songs, rhythm guitars for 2 and a half song (there’s a surprise regarding this!!), this weekend, we will do some guitar re-amping* and record first vocal tracks. Next week, Ronnie is getting his first, brand new signature bass bySivčák Guitars, which will be used for the recording. More info soon!’
(* re-amping: you record the clean signal of the electric guitar and later route it to different amplifiers, so that you have more possibilities, when it comes to creating the final sound.)
Recently they announced their new vocalist: Mayo Petranin [Castaway, Dirty Game].
Ronnie König of Signum Regis comments:
“Mayo Petranin has been with us as a guest singer since the last autumn. We played several gigs together, did a lot of rehearsing and spent a quite a bit of time together. During those months, we were able to tune in to the same vibe musically, we got to know each other and became friends. Being so happy with Mayo’s work and his interpretation of our songs, we are now naturally moving forward to the next step: Mayo is now officially the singer and frontman of Signum Regis.”
Signum Regis latest album “Exodus” was released on November 15th 2013 in Europe and December 3rd in North America through Ulterium Records. “Exodus” feat. guest vocals by Lance King [ex.
