Guys! This is album number 11! Isn't that just sick?! It’s also the third album of a concept that might have reached its destination or at least one conclusion. It might also have been something that some of you saw coming or anticipated?

We’ve fought through giant private obstacles as well as an extremely complicated break-in at our Headquarters studio to bring this album to you. So at the same time as it's certainly not been painless or at all easy, it’s been rewarding in new ways and our creativity has been painted in colors of honesty and sincerity.

This is our heaviest, darkest, and perhaps also our most diverse album to date. It’s everything we wanted to compose and the written words come straight from a place of transparency and never before experienced lucidity. Finally, as of yesterday, we’ve reached new shores. We can’t wait for you to share this journey with us and dive into our worlds, our depths, and the waters of The Atlantic!

The band states: "We wanted to invite you into the world of "The Atlantic" by listening to the music without a real music video. However you can trust that those are coming as well. We have been waiting forever to give this to you so let's hear your thoughts! Please share like there's no tomorrow!"


 
I love the album cover: some poor S.O.B. standing alone in a boat, broken mast, sails torn to shreds, a massive wave about to finish him off, and a flock of ravens on the horizon coming to pick at his bones. Epic.
 
I have to admit that Evergrey has become a band that I will see live any chance I get but on cd, they have been hit or miss with me since recreation day. The last release was painful for me as I did not like a single song off of that album. This is a very solid release from Evergrey. Evergrey has found their style and they own it. This album is slow and plodding but there are some really good simple riffs that I do enjoy. The production is fantastic and I love the overall sound of this disc. Big one here - Not sure how he does it but Tom just gets better and better as a vocalist. He sounds amazing here and he is by far the star on this release. Solid album here.
