SCOTT ATKINS TO MIX NEW STIGMA ALBUM, BAND PARTS WAYS WITH GUITARIST
Fresh from their “Ok Then, Let’s Shred” European tour, Italian deathcore specialists STIGMA have been holed up in pre-production for their as-yet-untitled sophomore release which will be produced by former BLEEDING THROUGH and current BRING ME THE HORIZON guitarist Jona Weinhofen and mixed & mastered by Scott Atkins (BEHEMOTH, CRADLE OF FILTH, SYLOSIS, IGNOMINOUS INCARCERATION).
Additionally, STIGMA has parted ways with guitarist Morgan Ferrua and will enter the studio this November as a four piece. The group recently stated:
"After nearly seven years together we decided to part ways with our guitar player Morgan. There's no bad blood between us, we'd like to thank him for the time he spent in the band and wish him the best in whatever he'll do in the future.
“We'll record the new album as a four piece; in the meantime we'll look for the right shredder to join the band. We're all really satisfied with the new songs, totally focused on the upcoming recordings and we truly believe this new one will reduce our debut to dust! Get excited, this is just the beginning, news and new shows coming soon!"
More information, regarding guest appearances, studio reports, and live dates will be announced in the coming months. Stigma’s follow up to 2008’s When Midnight Strikes! will be released via Pivotal Rockordings worldwide next year.
