Tourniquet to record new album with producer Neil Kernon

PIONEERING thrash band Tourniquet are set to record their first album since 2003's 'Where Moth And Rust Destroy'. Tourniquet's frontman drummer Ted Kirkpatrick told HM magazine, "Lord willing, we're recording a full length Tourniquet album later this year. It's been a long time - way, way overdue for a new Tourniquet album. We're scheduled to use a different producer - Neil Kernon - on this. He's a well known producer from England but he lives not too far from me. He's done everyone from Judas Priest to Dokken to older bands, like Yes and Kansas and weird bands like Magma, that I've loved for years. He's done some platinum albums, like Hall & Oates and the real heavy stuff, like Nile and Cannibal Corpse. I'm very excited to be working with him."
