Hollywood, CA -- After three years of talking about it, Matt Zane and Society 1 have finally entered NRG Studios to begin recording “Sadist Messiah.” Wade Norton is behind the soundboard again for the bands 4th studio album. "It feels great to be back in NRG Studios and working with Wade Norton” stated Zane. “I figured it was about time to get Sadist Messiah started. There has been a lot of road blocks and drama these past few years with ex members, agents and labels but everything seems to be worked out at the moment. The material is very strong and I am excited to finally get things moving once again."

Society 1 is:
Sick Rick – drums
Dirt – bass
Matt “The Lord” Zane – vocals, guitars, programming

“Saddist Messiah” is expected to be released in 2009. "I just wanted to get back into the studio. The live album is cool but I am just committed to the new material. We might do a few one off shows but that's it. " Last week, Society 1 announced the release of its first live album “Live and Raw”. The live album will be sold exclusively through iTunes.
