Here’s what the band members had to say on this material:
“We worked very hard on this project. Every passage found its perfect spot in the song, nothing was chosen randomly. We chose quality instead of quantity and in the end it came out something I’m personally very proud of. Each member of the band had a valuable contribution to the final product, there were 4 different and complementary personalities who mixed each other to perfection.” Armand Niculescu
“When we started working at “Dominions of Our Deceitful Beliefs” we didn’t knew where the musical orientation will go to. I think that the mixture of ideas, ideas of mine, Armand and Septimiu was special. Also we decided back then that we needed a new bass player, so we welcomed Ioan “John” Campian as a permanent member and I think he managed to do a very good job in the direction we wanted to go to. For fans of Nile, Morbid Angel, Deicide, Death or Pestilence I think it will be a nice surprise, especially now in the new remastered version with a bonus track.” Andrei Calmuc
“I enthusiastically entered this project, because it was my first participation as a bass player and because I liked the way the songs were thought and written. When I arrived into the band most of the material has already taken form, and I was given free hand in conceiving the bass lines. I am very fond of the final result as a unitary musical concept where all the ideas were melted into one compact and solid form. From the crushing simplicity of Above Desolation to the intricate songwriting of The Sixth Sun, each song has its own story to tell that we’ll like you to discover, now in a fresher remixed and remastered version.” Ioan “John” Campian
“For me, “Dominions of Our Deceitful Beliefs” represents the result of perfect consonance between how each member of CodeRed envisioned our first LP and, I would tend to say, the result of a common vision about what extreme metal generally is. Everyone who was in the band at the time of the writing process has brought not only substantial contributions to the composition, but also fully compatible contributions to all the other ideas already on the table. This stands as testament for the chemistry that I believe this band has when we join forces to write songs. Also, John’s later addition to the lineup and the way he handled writing and playing the bass guitar is further evidence for the musical cohesion in this band, because John also understands and feels death metal music the same way we do. I believe this much cohesive creativity is quite a rare thing.” Septimiu Harsan
As a side note, Septimiu Harsan is now the official Pestilence drummer and is gearing up for their World Tour 2018. Catch them live on the road!
