Brendon Small, who you absolutely know from Dethklok, recently announced that there was going to be a six-part Galaktikon comic series coming this August. Now Small has announced that in addition to the comic series, he'll be releasing the first Galaktikon album in five years alongside the series!
Galaktikon II: Become The Storm will be released on August 25 via Megaforce Records, and will feature Small's Dethklok band members bassist Bryan Beller and drummer Gene Hoglan. The album was recorded with Ulrich Wild (Dethklok, Static-X), and you can check out a teaser for the album below!
"This record is a combination of all the sounds I’ve been making throughout my creative life. It’s as heavy as I want it to be and melodic as I want it to be – it’s the bigger, darker record I wanted to hear. And what a way to celebrate my 10 year anniversary of making metal with Gene, Bryan and Ulrich, some of the best in the industry. I’m excited to have it live inside listeners’ heads and let their imaginations take over!"
