The big news for today; Napalm Death are hard at work on a new studio album entitled Time Waits For No Slave.

Paul Travers of Suite101.com recently spoke to NAPALM DEATH bassist Shane Embury about the British grindcore legends’ upcoming thirteenth full-length studio album, tentatively due before the end of the year via Century Media Records. “We’ve got about seventeen songs together,” Embury said. “I guess it’s moving on again from the last album [2006's Smear Campaign]. It’s still very fast and hopefully heavy. There’s a couple of strange kind of moments in the music, with a little more experimentation and a little more discordance in the guitar perhaps. I think Barney’s [Greenway] trying to move forward vocally in some areas like he did on tracks like "Smear Campaign" and "Persona Non Grata". The album is gonna be called Time Waits For No Slave and, yep, it’s going along rather well.”

I’m a huge Napalm Death fan so any news about a new album is good news!
