"We thought it was time to give you a shot of the new album and we decided to post track 1 "Paradogma". Why we've chosen this track? Because we think that it describes best the new and darker mood behind the new album. This will obviously doens't means that the new album will sounds just like this track. "Paradogma" is the most varied album we did so far, each track will have his own personality still being coherent to the overall sound of the new album. We've added so many elements to our music that this track..it's just a little preview.
We hope you'll enjoy the new song, and to be you sure you'll do, you can find by clicking in the link here an high quality mp3 of it.

Thanks for your support! Preorders will be up in the next couple of hours!

Italian metallers Hour Of Penance have issued the following update on their MySpace blog:

"Hour Of Penance will enter "16th Cellar" studio in Rome on August 27th with Stefano Morabito as sound engineer to start tracking the instruments of their fourth yet untitled new album, follower of the highly acclaimed 2008's "The Vile Conception" released by the renowned Unique Leader Records.

Commented frontman and guitar player Giulio Moschini: "After less then a year of songwriting we're finally ready to hit the studio and record the new album. We're very satisfied with the results of the songwriting sessions, everything went smooth and all the songs came out in a spontaneous way. We have enough material to record almost two albums but as we did with the previous album "The Vile Conception", only the best 10 songs will appear on the new opus. This time we will work with Stefano Morabito to get a more "live" approach and a more natural sound to the new album which will embrace a lot of new and different features from the past releases. I'm sure our loyal fans will not be disappointed when they hear the final result!"

More details about mixing, artwork, title and tracklist of the new Hour Of Penance album will follow soon. Meanwhile check out the bands MySpace page."
