California Infernal

San Diego, California-based metal outfit CARNIFEX will release its seventh studio album, "World War X", on August 2 via Nuclear Blast. World War X was produced by Carnifex and Jason Suecof. Recording and mixing was handled by Jason Suecof at Audiohammer Studio in Sanford, Florida. Vocals were tracked by Mick Kenney at The Barracks Studio in Huntington Beach, California. Arch Enemy frontwoman Alissa White-Gluz guested on the track ‘No Light Shall Save Us’, while New York-based guitarist Angel Vivaldi guested on the song ‘All Roads Lead To Hell’.

Emily Jane White's new album juxtaposes a heavy melancholy with an intimate touching lightness through her singular alto voice backed by orchestral percussion, soaring strings, heavy guitars, a choir of voices, and an overall cinematic presentation of dynamic songwriting. Written over a two year period her sixth album "Immanent Fire" recognizes our moment at the precipice of species annihilation, as she guides her listener through the feeling of life on a planet at the brink of destruction: "I watched the wind make the roses bend/does X really mark the end?" White honours the sacred, the earthly, and all that is deemed feminine, even as these very elements are threatened with the violence of contemporary systems of power.
