Greece’s SEPTICFLESH will release their new full-length album, Titan, on June 24th via Season Of Mist. The first single, Order Of Dracul is now available via iTunes and Amazon MP3, and can be streamed below.
The band says, “Order Of Dracul” is the first taste of the new album. It is a bombastic song with colorful classical orchestration. The title refers to Vlad Tepes, the notorious prince of Wallachia.”
In addition to the new music, Septicflesh have also revealed the cover artwork for Titan, completed by vocalist/bassist Seth Siro Anton.
The album – the band’s Prosthetic Records debut – is currently available for pre-order in the following formats:
– 2CD Digipak (including a bonus disc featuring the album’s orchestral score, as recorded by the Prague Philharmonic Orchestra)
– Gatefold Black 2LP (featuring hand-screened artwork on Side D)
– Gatefold White/Flesh 2LP (featuring hand-screened artwork on Side D)
– Limited-Edition 3LP Box Set (includes a bonus LP of the orchestral score along with exclusive hand-screened jackets)
The new album will consist of ten songs that were recorded once again at Devasoundz Studios in Athens, Greece and in the Czech Republic with the collaboration of the Prague Philharmonic Orchestra and Choir. From there, the album was mixed and mastered in Los Angeles by acclaimed producer Logan Mader (GOJIRA, FEAR FACTORY, CAVALERA CONSPIRACY).
Says the band, “We are really exhausted from the work on this record, but also very proud of the results. We worked hard with Logan to bring you the ultimate death metal soundtrack for your darkest dreams. The compositions are progressive with a lot of emotional peaks, while at the same time the songs sound very aggressive and powerful. We also had the chance to work for the first time with a full children’s choir besides the regular adult choir, and that helped us dive deeper into darker cinematic atmospheres. We have achieved a new level of extreme emotions.”
