"Arkona" are now recording their fourth album "Ot Serdca k Nebu"

"Arkona" are now recording their fourth album "Ot Serdca k Nebu" ("From the Heart to the Sky"), maybe the most epic and majestic album in their career.
The band has already recorded the drum tracks.
Vlad Sokolov (Drummer): "This time we did the drum tracks in "Gigant-records" studio (Zemfira, Kipelov, Zapreshyonnie Barabanshiki, Tracktor Bowling...). We didn't want to use triggers for this album and recorded the clean acoustic drum signal. All the drum tracks were recorded on a rare DW set with a unique microphone park in 5 hours, almost everytime, from the first take. For now this is my best work..."
As always, Masha "Scream" and Sergei "Lazar" are producing the CD.
Masha "Scream" Arhipova (Vocals, Music and Lyrics):
"The new songs are totally one with my present mood and world view.
There are no more "happy" songs like "Maslenitsa" or "Viydu Ya Na Volyushku". This album will be far more epic and dark.
Best folk musicians of Russia and Belarus will take part in the recording process, as well as friends from other bands. Their names will be announced later."
The band will continue recording "Ot Serdca k Nebu" in June at CDM Records/Moscow sound.
