....................................................
Soul Embraced and their brand new album Dead Alive is a reinvigorated, brutal
and precise take on the intense death metal that made Soul Embraced infamous
to the underground when they began in the late ’90s. Produced by Barry
Poynter (Living Sacrifice, Zao) and mixed by Hate Eternal/ former Morbid
Angel guitarist Erik Rutan (Cannibal Corpse, Six Feet Under, Through the Eyes
of the Dead), Dead Alive serves as Soul Embraced’s proper reintroduction to
the metal community. The return of Soul Embraced has been a long time coming.
Rocky Gray is now back behind the lead guitar, having spent the last few
years recording and touring with the multi-platinum hard rock band
Evanescence. Gray has reunited with his close friend Chad Moore, whose vocals
recall the best of Carcass and At the Gates. Lance Garvin (Gray’s Living
Sacrifice bandmate) is back behind the kit. The band’s founding members, who
formed the band in 1997 after the dissolution of Shredded Corpse, are joined
by new bass player Jeff Bowie and new guitarist Devin Castle. Dead Alive is
the band’s first full-length release since 2003 and is by far their most
brutal and yet most diverse offering. Look for them on the road in 2008.
