Aggression: 'Viocracy'

After going through several line-up changes, Spanish thrashers Aggression, are working on the last details of their long waited sophomore album, after their acclaimed debut 'Moshpirit', that was released on September 2009. On this second album, that will receive the name of 'Viocracy', there will be able to appreciate clearly a music style readjustment, oriented to a most technical, eclectic and progressive thrash metal, but without losing the first album essence.

Those changes have been enhanced with the entry of the new members, who help the band to acquire a technical and musical level never seen before in the band's history.

Actually, this is the Aggression's line-up:
- Pol Luengo (guitar and lead vocals)
- Oscar Reka (guitar and backing vocals)
- Carlos Leonardo (bass and backing vocals)
- Jose Rosendo (drums)

The recording, mixing and the mastering of 'Viocracy', will be done during this fall. The recording will be performed in Sweet Home Studios (Barcelona) on September, and the mix and the mastering will be done again (just like the first album) by the young producer Erik Monsonis.

The album will also include a cover of the classic 'YYZ' from the legendary progressive rock band Rush, from their highly acclaimed album 'Moving Pictures'.

Track listing:
1. False Flags
2. Chemical Slavery
3. Viocracy
4. MK Ultra
5. Get Mad
6. Awake Awareness
7. Human Nature
8. Dehumanized
9. Victims of Bias
10. YYZ (Rush cover)

The cover of the album has been designed by the renowned German illustrator Eliran Kantor, who has worked with bands like Sodom, Atheist, Testament, etc.

'Viocracy' will be released worldwide in January 1st, 2012 through Xtreem Music, and international promotion will be done by the professional musical agency Top Artist Promotion, who has already worked with bands like Gamma Ray, Stratovarius, Kamelot, and so on.
