Recording-wise that is. Mr. Sandström’s put down bass bass for all three tracks and vocals for 2 of them, which means there’s one more death metal hit to do vocals for and then we’ll ship the damn thing over to Dan Swanö to work his magic. We can guarantee you 3 tracks of the world’s best death metal. If everything goes as planned, this second demo should be available for free to you guys within one or 2 weeks. This is necessary as we are going to play www.metaltown.se as previously announced. We still haven’t been informed if we are going to play on Friday or Saturday, but our wishes is to play Saturday. We’ll let you know as soon as we know. You better not miss this gig coz it’s not that often you get to hear and see the world’s best death metal being performed by your fave band, Torture Division.
Also, the shirts are currently being printed and will be done by next week sometime. You will look beautiful in it, we promise.

Yep, we thought we might as well do the first gig with this band on a festival and obviously we are going to. We haven’t been informed what day we will play, nor what time, just yet, but as soon as we know you’ll be notified in here.

Everything will be delivered to the printers today and as soon as we know how long it will take for these babies to arrive at TD Headquarters, we’ll let you know. It might be some 2 weeks or so, but fear not - these wonderful bastards will soon come to your mailbox. Hang in there, and thanx fucken loads for your support by buying this. We really, really appreciate it and will reward you in the form of a fantastic demo in a little while. The ones who will just settle for taking our music (that we hand out for free) can go fuck themselves. You must be tortured.

Yep, it’s the 9th and we take no more orders for the new shirt. Thanx alot to the people who supports us and purchased one. You will pretty soon have your stuff in the mail.

For some reason, our good old friend Dan Swanö (he’s been in a band or 2 during the years and someone said he had a studio as well) will be mixing our forthcoming 2nd demo. You want the title? Sure, you can have that. It will be called “We bring upon thee” and will hold three tracks of eternal torture (also known as “fantastic death metal”). Maybe you want to know about the titles as well? We guess we could hand those out too. In no particular order, the tunes are called “Invoking The Knifer“, “We bring upon thee” and last off, “Terroreyes“. Originally we had planned to have Markus at www.metallfabriken.se mix this one too as he did with the first one, but when Mr. Swanö offered to take a break in his busy schedule and help us with a favor, who are we to fucken argue? We thank Dan for this. Oh yeah, we fucken do. And with this we strike him off the list of people and stuff we need to torture before the end of next week. Lucky Dan.
Vocalist/bassist Jörgen Sandström is about to enter the studio in Stockholm in the coming weeks to put down the final stuff needed (which naturally would be vocals and bass) so hopefully we’ll be able to ship this death metal extravaganza to Swanö shortly so he can make our unlistenable and shitty files listenable for you fuckers. Oh, you wanna see the cover for the next demo as well? Forget about it, you have to wait for that a little longer though we actually have it right here in front of us. But we need to have something for the next news post as well, you know.
Besides this, we also have some more cool news for ya, but as mentioned before we will wait with those until it’s officially cleared.
We bring upon thee an army of three. And a second demo. Hang in there, your much needed death metal fix is coming soon to a autopsy room near you.

Yep, and after that you are fucked. Safe to say, this will be one extremely limited edition of shirts so if you are missing out on it.. well, then you suck and shit. This is the topic to use to order the shirt. Just so you know, you who are doing this actually help us with financing the coming demo. Hang in here, in a little bit you’ll get some more fantastic news from your fave death metal band.

Damn, we didn’t think we would be able to tell you this shit so soon, but here we go. We just signed a 7 album deal with Downloading Is Beautiful Records. Actually, we didn’t. We don’t like record labels and we sure as fuck don’t feel like recording an album at the moment either. But what we actually are in the process of doing is recording our second demo. We know, we know… We have been silent about it. Busy torturing stuff you know, no time for the internet if you do that as a profession. We are sure you fuckers understand. So, here’s the lowdown on all things Torture Division at the moment.
Grindmaster Flesh, aka Golden Spider, aka Tobben Gustafsson recorded his parts for the second demo a few days ago in Karlstad, Sweden. This time we even rented a studio to be able to do things a little bit easier this time around. Instead of 6 channels for the drums we now used 15. Yeah, we know, sounds kinda much for a band like us considering we want to do things low-budget (as in “free”) but the studio was cheap and Tobben didn’t need many minutes to put down his parts. Just so you know, you, the people who actually supported us by buying our latest shirt (go to the forum to order yours, you have until Friday actually) contributed to us being able to rent this studio for the drums. We thank you, and to prove we are kinda thankful, we will ofcourse give you this second, fantastic demo for free as well, as soon as it’s completed.
But hey, that’s not all. The Lord got the drums from Tobben yesterday and we can now reveal that the guitars are recorded too. Yep, that’s how we work this shit called death metal. We s’pose it’s one of the (prolly the only as well) advantages of being death metal veterans and general superheroes). So, that leaves us with 3 fucken excellent blasting’n'grooving tunes of sheer death metal in need of some grunts and bass. And we figured that since we have Mr. Jörgen Sandström on board this ship of torture, he might as well do them on this demo too, huh? That’s the plan and we’ll fucken stick to it. So, when will he do it? He might have done it already, we are not completely sure. If not, this should happen within a week or so.
We need to have this demo completed in a little while becoz of a few reasons actually… Perhaps you have an urge to see 3 handsome muthafuckers on stage sometime soon? Well, let’s not say anything more at the moment since we are waiting for someone else to do the announcement of “where and when” before we do. Keep yer eyes open at this site and over at our forums, 2 places we are sure you can find without us linking to them in this post, ok?
So, is there anything else we would like to share with you concerning this demo? Ofcourse it is… And it’s even some quite fucken cool news if you ask us… But we won’t reveal that yet, we have to have something to use for the next news post from your favourite death metal band, right? We might try to post some pictures from the recording sessions of this second demo later on. Thanx for the support and spread the word of Torture.
In the meantime, beware of The Knifer.

Click me to go to our forums and find out about everything you need to know to support Torture Division. This is what the next shirt will look like:
You sure want one of those and you sure want to support our way of doing things, handing out free music for you and so forth. Just click the fucken link above.
Friday, April 18th, 2008
Yeah, it is. Kind of. The tunes are ready to be recorded. Titles and everything is already set. The cover is done too. We are not promising anything but we are actually trying to get this one recorded earlier than posted before. The reason for this you will be aware of in a while, so stay tuned for that. In other related news we can reveal that a new shirt is also in the works. The people over at our forums have seen most of the design but as soon as it’s completed fully, we’ll post it here for you to see.
If you claim to be into death metal and don’t actually support us by purchasing our t-shirts and whatnot - you are actually not into death metal. You are a scumbag whom we wish gonorrhea upon. We give you the world’s best death metal for free, so make sure to chip in for a quality shirt so we can continue handing out music to you cocksuckers. Or you and your family will be on our list of people to torture. Coz that’s what we do, you know. We torture shit. Hence our name.
More news, cool fucken ones too, will come…
Wednesday, April 9th, 2008
Yeah, we thought it’d be cool if we got some talented fucker to actually come up with our next shirt design, you know. It’s definitely supposed to be black and white and it must look fucken old-school. Think Carnage, Nihilist etc, etc… That kind of shit. You know the ugly but beautiful in some bizarre way kind of drawing. You think you can do something that we will like? It’s almost like we’ll pay you for the work we’ll end up using, if we end up using anything, that is. You’ll get a free shirt and you’ll also get to download all of our demos for fucken free. Yep, that’s right, they will always be for free becoz we are that cool - but hey, the thought is nice, no?
You can find the logo here in this link.
Also, you only need to create a front for the shirt, we’ll do the back neatly ourselves. If you feel you have what it takes to satisfy us - send the fucken shit to theprojecthate@gmail.com for consideration. You can also post a thumbnail at our forums of what you have created, so everyone can point and laugh, or even applaud you.
Go ahead, be creative if you dare. Just remember, our name is Torture Division, not Satanic Pentagram Beelzebub Inverted Cross Division.
