Following the successful release of their Prosthetic Records debut Blacklands, which earned the female-fronted doom trio a nomination for a Juno Award (Canada’s equivalent of the Grammys) for Metal/Hard Music Album Of The Year, CASTLE will soon return to the studio to record a new album, with producer Billy Anderson (SLEEP, NEUROSIS) again overseeing the sessions.
The band commented, “The next CASTLE record will be a culmination of the last two years of our life – a year and a half on the road in support of Blacklands and the last six months holed up writing. The demos are done, the studio is booked and we were lucky enough to get Billy Anderson back to produce. The new record picks up where we left off with Blacklands and before that In Witch Order. There’s a lot to sink your teeth into on the new record – killer riffs, big vocals – and if anything, it’s about trying to harness the power that comes from playing night after night. It’s going to sound huge and we can’t wait to get it out.”
The as-yet-untitled album is expected to be released in the late spring; stay tuned for more information in the coming weeks.
