Bogren previously stated about BILOCATE: "BILOCATE takes the qualities from the best epic death metal bands and blend it with their very own Middle Eastern touch, and out comes one of the most interesting metal bands I've heard for a long time You can hear that they put effort and thought in to every note and every scream!"

BILOCATE's Ramzi Essayed recorded the vocals for the new CD at the In the Mix studios with Nash Planojevic, who is known for his work as a monitor engineer for IRON MAIDEN and SAXON.

Stated Nash: "Refreshing, promising and definitely most tight project I ever done so far here in Dubai. On the other hand definitely most demanding task, guys know exactly what they want and that's the way to be!!! Looking forward together with Jens and guys from BILOCATE to open new horizons for the music coming from the region, and proof the fact that the good music lays deep down under the remains of Petra and sand dunes of futuristic Dubai!"

On Other news, BILOCATE Revealed their new Logo which has been created by Christophe Szpajdel Known as "The Lord of Logos", best recognized by his great work for bands such as (Emperor, Enthroned, Moonspell, Old man's child, Borknagar & many others).

BILOCATE would like to give their gratitude to Christphe for his Outstanding work & efforts in creating BILOCATE's new great logo.

Ramzi Essayed (Vocalist) commented:

"it was a challenge for the band to have our vision & music translated into a single identity in front of the music world but working with such a talented, creative & amazing artist like Christphe made it happen, A true lord of logos indeed. A humble artist which I never dealt with such before...special thanks from me & Bilocate members to Christophe".

Christophe commented on BILOCATE:

"This is one of the most original band I came across, providing me an enriching experience in my entire career as I am currently working on their logo. You can see three Bilocate logos on my gallery now. Amazing mixture of dark oriental metal with hints of death and black metal elegantly melt into each other.... What a shame this band was so underrated....this band is a gem and so nice people I would work for indefinitely."
