Reunited Seattle cult power thrashers SANCTUARY have posted the video for “Frozen,” a song from their new album, The Year the Sun Died. The clip was filmed in Germany with director Dirk Behlau. The Year The Sun Died will be released on October 14 in North America and October 6 in Europe via Century Media. Recorded in Seattle at Soundhouse Studios with producer Chris “Zeuss” Harris (SOULFLY, SHADOWS FALL, HATEBREED, MUNICIPAL WASTE), the album will feature 11 tracks.
There will be a deluxe media book, available exclusively at CM Distro in the United States, which features expanded packaging and the bonus track, a cover of THE DOORS classic “Waiting For The Sun”. The vinyl version will come with a CD featuring this bonus track as well. The cover artwork for the album was created by Travis Smith (OPETH, NEVERMORE).

Comments SANCTUARY singer Warrel Dane: “Now that hell has officially frozen over and the pigs have flown, I can proudly say ‘The Year The Sun Died’ is finished. The record that nobody thought would ever get here has come in kicking… and yes, there is screaming! Working with Zeuss (a.k.a The Commander) was great. He really pushed us all to be better. This is a very modern-sounding record with roots still firmly planted in old-school six-string metal and I gotta give him creds for that.”
