Hi there noticed a few of you wondering about tour dates so here's some to have a look at, we have decided to do only a few this year and save the rest for next year - as some of you probably know we will tour with Nile in the states early next year and then on to japan with which we will return to europe and carry on the campaign which will probably be around march, though i hear rumour of a few shows with sepultura coming up then as well which should be interesting.

On the album front as you already know there will be a vinyl version of the album with 2 extra tracks but it will also feature a different album cover so look out for that.

Also new at the moment in the napalm camp are tentative plans for a leaders not followers part 2 in the making...this time a full album we are currently discussing which songs to cover - the more obscure the better though.....thats it for now take care

The new album "Order of the Leech" - will be released October 21st (all being well), the full track listing is as follows...

1:Continuing war on stupidity
2:The icing on the hate
3:Forced to fear
4:Narcoleptic
5:Out of sight.Out of mind
6:To lower yourself (Blind servitude)
7:Lowest common denominator
8:Forewarned is Disarmed ?
9:Per Capita
10:Farce and Fiction
11:Blows to the Body

Again the album was produced by Simon Efemey and Russ Russsell, the drums being recorded at Parkgate Studios whereas the rest of the music was recorded and mixed at Chapel Studios in Lincolnshire.

There will be a special limited edition version of the album on double (coloured) vinyl which will have two extra tracks - "Thaw" and "Terror rain" originally recorded by the band Septic Death.

HI there Shane here at Chapel Studios where we are recording the new Napalm album and i thought i would drop every body a quick line. Firstly on a sort of related subject many apologies to anybody looking forward to seeing my other band Lock Up play Wacken and such - schedules got crazy with the Napalm album and we had a deadline to meet hope every body understands.

As for the Napalm album all is now going well - a few vocal tracks to do and some more guitars before we get in to the mixing stage but so far it's sounding super heavy and fast.

We have recorded a couple of songs by a band called Septic Death (which i am sure some people will know) the trax 'Terror rain' and 'Thaw' have turned out cool so they should surface sometime soon ... anyway more news when i have it - here's a couple of pics for you to have a look at unfortunately the mexicans in the band were nowhere to be found but anyway...

Welcome back - sorry for the delay in getting the site back online but there were a few problems we had to clear up and now thanx to our good friend jim (the webmaster general) things seem to be getting back to normal.

Tuesday the 16th of july is the date that we enter the studio to finish recording the new album again with simon efemy and russ russell, this time though we will record at chapel studios in lincoln where we did the "words from the exit wound" album, so far the titles on the album are as follows ...Farce and fiction, Forewarned is Disarmed?, Blows To The Body, Continuing war on stupidity, the icing on the hate, Lowest common denominater, Narcoleptic, Per Capita, The Great Capitulator, To Lower yourself (Blind Servitude) two more titles to be added and the title of the album will be decided very soon - so you guys will be the first to know.

The dvd is coming along well - we just have to put the finishing touches to some of the footage the image left will most likely be the cover with a lot more stuff inside the booklet - artwork again comes from mid.

There will most likely be some shows in the states before the release of the new album as we feel we haven't played there enough in recent times.. all being well (and things go according to plan) we should be over there in october to help promote the new album as it comes out but at the moment it is still an idea lets hope this can happen.

So anyway we are back and hopefully now we can stay that way - expect the history section of the site to finally get underway and a lot more, just give me some time and any suggestions are always welcome speak to you guys soon take care

"Punishment in Capitals" - the live DVD, and new album - drum tracks finished.

As you probably already know we will release a new live DVD in the next couple of months, it's unknown exactly when as we are still in the progress of putting all the extras in that we want... any suggestions ? then post a new thread on the forum and we will check in to see if we can oblige.

The DVD will be called "Punishment in Capitals" and was recorded at London's ULU a couple of months ago, the tracklisting will be something like this...

Lucid Fairytale, Taste the Poison, Next on the List, Constitutional Hell, Suffer the Children, Cleanse Impure, Politicians, Breed to Breathe, Unchallenged Hate, Vermin, The World Keeps Turning, Can't Play Wont Pay, Narcoleptic, Volume of Neglect, Hung, From Enslavement to Obliteration, Scum, Life ?, The Kill, Deciever, You Suffer, Cure for a Common Complaint, Mass Appeal Madness, Greed Killing, Instinct of Survival, Nazi Punks Fuck Off, Back from the Dead, Siege of Power.

There will also be a live show from a gig we did in Chile in front of 5000 people which is looking killer, some interviews and hopefully a bunch of other stuff (more live shows etc) more details including the cover artwork to come in the next week or two.

Onto the subject of the new album - Danny laid down his drum tracks last weekend at Parkgate Studios in Hastings (where Enemy was recorded) and we have got to say that he did an impressive job -absolutely no messing about.
It's safe to say that this album has some of the fastest Napalm Death songs ever, all the influences are there from the early death metal/hardcore days and we are looking forward to finishing the rest of the album which will be early July - the reason for this being other commitments with the producers and band members - Looking towards a release around the end of September/October - some of the song titles are as follows....

'Narcoleptic', 'Farce and Fiction', 'Lowest Common Denominator', 'Per Capita', 'Continuing War On Stupidity', 'The Icing On the Hate
