“I’m thrilled to work with Devilish Impressions again to hopefully push the band to the next level. The guys in the band are dedicated hard workers. They know exactly what they want, what is needed to reach their goal and their new album is very big step forward musically. I truly believe we can turn some heads with “The I”! – comments Lifeforce Records owner Stefan Lüdicke.
The title chosen, “The I”, for the record is not only a phonetic acronym of the band’s name, but above all it reflects the manifesto they stand for since the Horde’s inception in the year 2000 – the notion of freedom of choice and will. A supremacy of an individual over any external factors being imposed on us by others, with special emphasis on religion and its convictions, dogmas and paradigms. “The I” is a rebellious manifesto targeted against all those who stand opposed to anything that drives us towards individual perfection.
In 2016, DEVILISH IMPRESSIONS joins the elite roster of New York based EXTREME MANAGEMENT GROUP alongside notable bands such as SUFFOCATION, CATTLE DECAPITATION, ORIGIN, CRYPTOPSY, ATHEIST, RINGS OF SATURN, KING PARROT, INTERNAL BLEEDING and many more. With the newfound partnership, both sides will work together in making the band’s future endeavors the most prominent and impactful with their fans respectively and the rest of the metal genre.
