Well, holy shit! Fleshgod Apolcaypse will be releasing King sometime early 2016 and according to vocalist and drummer Francesco Paoli it'll be the darkest record from the band yet! The band will enter Kick Recording and 16th Cellar studios in Rome this summer, the album will be mixed and mastered by Jens Bogren (At The Gates, Amon Amarth, etc.) and artwork will be done by Eliran Kantor (Testament, Iced Earth, etc.).
Paoli made the following statement about the record, and it's a juicy one!
"The new album is called King. It's a concept album. It took longer this time but I believe it's a sign of more maturity and determination within the band. We can't release something mediocre just because it's enough to keep things rolling. I believe the music world requires people to work harder on their material and that is what Fleshgod Apocalypse is set to do in this ‘new middle age’ era. At the end of the day, quality is the final goal, right? That's why our expectations in our music and writing become higher every time we approach the stage of creating a new album. We always follow our feelings and try to express our state of mind through our music, and what we have in our hands now is the darkest Fleshgod album ever. As for the concept behind the album, all I can say right now is that I think we need a good psychiatrist!"
2016 is already looking up!
