Californian gore death metal pioneers Autopsy’s drummer/vocalist Chris Reifert discussed the band’s intentions for a sequel to their 2023 album “Ashes, Organs, Blood And Crypts” in a recent interview with Laughing Monkey With Shawn Ratches, as per Blabbermouth.
As of now, the big plan is just to make the new album before the year’s over and get it kicked out the door next year. And it should be good timing in that regard. So that’s what we’re shooting for.
Chris made this statement on a potential musical approach for the upcoming Autopsy album.
As long as long as it sounds like something Autopsy should be doing, that’s what we’re shooting for. We never wanted to make ‘Severed Survival Part Two’ or try and recreate something that we’ve already done, ’cause we already did it. But at the same time, you wanna sound like yourself, and we’re not trying to all of a sudden sound like — I always pick on this band unfairly, but we’re not gonna all of a sudden start trying to sound like Dream Theater or something. I’m sorry, Dream Theater. I don’t know why I always use you for a reference of what we’re not gonna do. My apologies… Yeah, we just wanna sound like what we should sound like. And hopefully people will agree with that. And if not, we can’t please everyone… [You wanna do something that sounds] just [fresh] enough to where you’re not imitating something you already did, but not too outside of the bubble… Some bands, you do want them to repeat themselves. Like, when Motörhead was around, every time you’d get a new Motörhead album, and I would get the new ones, I always was happy it was just like the records before, but in the best way. You don’t want ’em to fuck with it.
