Titled Doomsday, the upcoming album from the German death metal trio is their fifth full-length album and is scheduled to be released in March next year, via Century Media Records. The news of the upcoming new album follows on from the release of recent single Funeral Of The Earth, which was released back in September.
The upcoming album, the follow-up to 2019’s Drowned By Humanity, was recorded, mixed and mastered by guitarist Fabian Hildebrandt at Eisensound Studio. Speaking about the upcoming album, drummer Simon Mengs says, “seemingly driven by the frustration of the never-ending forced break, we have been working on new songs for the last 1.5 years and recorded them in the last weeks. It’s hard to believe that we were completely disillusioned and empty-handed in the middle of last year and now we’re holding our most varied and mature record to date in our hands.”
Guitarist Fabian Hildebrandt adds, “we recorded again at my Eisensound Studio and this time I also did the mixing and mastering myself. The creative freedom on this album was greater than ever, because we could still implement small details and ideas we came up with during mixing. A good preview of what’s to come is given by our recently released 7inch Funeral Of The Earth, whose mix was also a perfect starting point for the album sound, on which I was able to add a few more percent.”
And vocalist/guitarist Manuel ‘Mahne’ Glatter says, “the album artwork was done by Rio Krisma and he realized our concept perfectly. Doomsday is not about the monster created in Superman whose only goal is the destruction of other life forms, but humanity seems to be on its way there and also destroying itself. We have a fucking problem, there’s a lot going wrong socially too and as artists we want to bring attention to it.”
