"In late 2013 Swedish sludge metal band SIGNO ROJO started to record a full length album of some of the material they had been sharpening in their live-set since releasing their first two EP’s. With a short deadline set they entered the studio in December of that year.From there on everything went wrong. Technical difficulties, mental health issues, malfunctioning amplifiers and a tight schedule meant that almost the entire session had to be scrapped.
Not daunted by the setback the band splurged what little money they had on a in-house setup to finish the recordings in their rehearsal space. An arduous process that added a few months to an already stretched schedule. At the same time vocalist/bassist Jonas had to move city, and record all the vocals by himself in a different studio. When finishing up the last vocal tracks the studio experienced a hardware malfunction that rendered all the tracks useless. Jonas ended up moving back again, re-recording the vocals in the in-house studio. The end result was better, bitter and way more pissed. With all the elements on tape it would seem that the hard work was all over and was about to pay off. This was late September 2015...
