Doctrine (album)

Doctrine is the sixth studio album by Dutch technical death metal band Pestilence, which was released on April 24, 2011.[1] The album was recorded and mixed at Woodshed Studio in southern Germany with engineer Victor "V.Santura" Bullok. The artwork was designed by Marko Saarelainen. The album represents a second release by the reformed Pestilence, with two new members: Yuma van Eekelen and Jeroen Paul Thesseling, who was a member of the band during the Spheres era. Technically, the album is an experimentation with very low tunings, with Mameli and Uterwijk playing on 8-string guitars with standard tuning, and Thesseling playing a 7-string fretless bass tuned in f# sharp.

gollark: Besides, we've had the majority of gods in active containment since 1996.
gollark: They should be. Religion mostly deals with unfalsifiable vague claims and "faith", which is basically the opposite of empiricism.
gollark: Declining religion.
gollark: Sure. Although it's still hard to distinguish whether that's a "science" thing or a "weird societal factors" thing.
