Metal veterans High On Fire will enter the studio this January to record their new album.

The band has recruited Converge guitarist and noted producer Kurt Ballou to track the album at his GodCity Studio.

A follow-up to 2012′s 'De Vermis Mysteriis', drummer Des Kensel comments, “Everyone is asking what the new High on Fire music sounds like. Chew on some mescaline and listen to side B of Sabbath’s “Master of Reality” backwards at 78 RPM and it might give you an idea.”
