The landing page featuring a full new song, track listing and pre-order options will be launched next Monday, September 9. Swanö stated about the new HAIL OF BULLETS longplayer: "HAIL OF BULLETS return for their third album, armed to the teeth with a thunderous death metal onslaught that combines the raw ferocity of the first album with the more expanded arrangements of the second. A death metal masterpiece!" As previously reported, a picture-disc version of HAIL OF BULLETS' debut album, "Of Frost And War", was released on February 4 via Metal Blade. The picture disc is strictly limited to 500 copies. HAIL OF BULLETS's second full-length album, "On Divine Winds", entered the German Media Control chart at position No. 75.
