Swedish guitarist and co-founder of the bands The Haunted and Witchery, Patrik Jensen, has shared the following update:
“I’m stoked to present my third signature from Solar Guitars. Crazy! Anyway, I’ve been using a standard white Solar E-type for about a year or so, and Solar were so kind to make me a signature model. This guitar is armed with Hetfield “Het” set EMG pick-ups. I used these pick-ups for all my guitar work on the new The Haunted album and I think they are pretty amazing tbh.
“Also the first Solar to have “Luminlays”, glow-in-the-dark block inlays, on the neck for the those extra dark, smokey and cozy stages.”
Watch the video below, and learn more at Solar Guitars.
The Haunted continue to scorch the earth with their upcoming tenth studio album, Songs Of Last Resort, to be released worldwide on May 30 via longtime partners Century Media Records.
The band recently unleashed the blistering new single, “In Fire Reborn”, along with a music video, which was directed by Patric Ullaeus / (In Flames, Arch Enemy, Dimmu Borgir, etc.). The clip can be found below.
The Haunted vocalist Marco Aro comments about the track, “This is the second single off the album Songs Of Last Resort. The song is called ‘In Fire Reborn’ and it’s a more classic The Haunted sounding song with the aggression turned up to 11…just in case you missed the memo on our previous single!”
Guitarist Jensen adds, “A classic The Haunted 6/8 beat song. I wrote the start, verses and ending of the song, but it wasn’t until Jonas wrote the chorus when ‘In Fire Reborn’ really bloomed out. I believe this could also easily become a fan favorite, just like it has become one of the band’s favorite songs on the album. The lyrics are, just like with ‘Warhead,” also along the topic of war, but this time from a soldier’s perspective.”
With music recorded by Oscar Nilsson at Studio Bohus, main vocals recorded by Björn Strid at The Cellar Studio, Songs Of Last Resort was then mixed and mastered by Jens Bogren at Fascination Street Studios (Kreator, Arch Enemy, Sepultura, etc). Artwork was once again provided by longtime visual collaborator Andreas “Diaz” Pettersson.
