NETHERBIRD 'Covered in Darkness'

Sweden's NETHERBIRD have released the cover artwork and track listing for their latest EP "Covered in Darkness", which will be unleashed on the 15th of December 2009 for a free download!

Message from Nephente;

"Back in 2007 Netherbird was more of a project than a full band and me and Bizmark were still working with a very "fluid" line up. During some hectic days in February 2007 four cover tunes were recorded in the old Studio Scarecrow. The session also included Swiss drummer David Preissel and lead guitarrist Tinnitus. These recordings has since then been resting but now it is time to unveil this release and it will also include a friend on solo guitar on one of the tunes, which solo contributor that will be featured is still in the hands of our listeners and friends here on myspace."

This release will ONLY be available for free download in the form of high quality mp3's along with a pdf cover for those that wish to print it.

"Covered in Darkness" is Netherbird's tribute to some songs and bands that meant and still mean a lot to the band.

1.    “As I Die” by Paradise Lost (1992)
2.    “Nepenthe” by Sentenced (1995)
3.    “Alison Hell” by Annihilator (1989)
4.    “Firmament Vacation” by the Soundtrack of our Lives (1996)
