As previously reported, Magnacult has posted a new video for the song "Identity 676" (see below) on its YouTube page. The footage was shot during the band's European tours with Devildriver and Ill Nino and at their own headlining shows in Holland.
Magnacult is currently writing material for its as-yet-untitled sophomore album, tentatively due in early 2009. "We are very excited to enter the studio again and record our new material," says drummer Bionic. "A few songs are already finished and others are still in progress but it will be a hard-hitting record again."
The group's debut, "Synoré", was released in May 2007 via Rusty Cage Records. The CD was produced by the band themselves along with Jochem Jacobs (Textures) and Bouke Visser and was mixed and mastered at the Split Second Sound Studio.
Musically the Magnacult members are influenced by many different bands, ranging from modern metal to death metal and beyond. "We always like to challenge ourselves with what we do," said guitarist D. "Putting the ladder a step higher every time and pushing you to the limits every day again. Come up with weird counts but not to confusing and most important still keeping the groove in the songs. That was where we were aiming for while writing the material."
