New footage from JOB FOR A COWBOY’s Demonocracy studio
sessions is currently available at the band’s official landing page. Witness Jon
Rice demolish his kit during “Fearmonger” at THIS LOCATION.
Additionally, Drum Magazine recently caught up with Rice to
talk about his natural sounding approach to the critically-lauded record
noting, “If you detect more of a feel-oriented style on JOB FOR A
COWBOY’s Demonocracy, credit Jon ‘The Charn’ Rice for that
extra bit of human touch. Eschewing sound replacement, scientific Pro Tools
quantizing, and the usual by-the-numbers approach favored by most death metal
bands (and their power hungry producers), Charn and JFAC did
it old school; well, almost. While the band certainly used computers to keep
the perfect beast drummer in perfect time, they didn’t follow the typical click
track route. Similarly, Charn opted for natural drum tones and sounds. All this
anti-machine behavior gives Demonocracy a serious kick to the
groin, and on songs like ‘Children Of Deceit,’ ‘Imperium Wolves,’ and
‘Fearmonger,’ 24-year-old Charn smacks down single strokes, bleeds double pedal
profundity, and generally rips the heads off your favorite death metal
destroyers.” READ THE FULL STORY HERE.
In related news, at the tail end of their Euro trek, JOB FOR A COWBOY will bring

“…an ass-kicking, skull-cracking record,” -- Alternative
Press and
“…a very strong exercise in slickly-produced, technically
sound death metal…” -- Decibel,
“Demonocracy affords JOB FOR A COWBOY another
album to legitimize their death metal sound, which was set forth starting with
Ruination…Bringing in guitarist Tony Sannicandro and Cephalic Carnage bassist
Nick Schendzielos translates to dynamics not heard on any JOB FOR A
COWBOY album to date…” — About.com
“The album plays like a constant assault, and while never
backing off it still manages to add enough structure for individual songs to
become memorable… the soloing is surprisingly catchy and well-executed while
still managing to sit well in the context of the songs.” — Ultimate-Guitar
