Swedish death metallers UNLEASHED are putting the finishing touches on their twelfth full-length album for a spring 2015 release via Nuclear Blast. The title of the CD is still a secret, but be prepared for another classic record! UNLEASHED's new album is once again being produced by the band's guitarist, Fredrik Folkare, at his Chrome Studios in Stockholm. Comments UNLEASHED frontman Johnny Hedlund: "We are almost finished with the recordings of the new album. "We are naturally very excited about this new release and are looking forward to hear your comments about it."This album takes over exactly where 'Odalheim' left off, both music- and story-wise." UNLEASHED's last CD, "Odalheim", was released in April 2012 via Nuclear Blast. With "Odalheim", UNLEASHED not only presented the follow-up to "As Yggdrasil Trembles" in the year 2012, but also continued telling its post-doomsday story, embedded into the Norse mythology. After the mighty world tree Yggdrasil had trembled and rung in the end of the world, Fimbul winter followed: Three years of darkness and coldness, during which Mother Nature took back what was rightfully hers. This caused the end of life as we know it. Ragnarök. But the warriors who've survived will build a new world out of the old one's ashes. Right here, the story of "Odalheim" begins. UNLEASHED's current lineup:Johnny Hedlund: Bass, Vocals Tomas Måsgard: Guitar Fredrik Folkare: Guitar Anders Schultz: DrumsA two-camera fan-filmed mix of UNLEASHED's March 15, 2014 performance at Hammerfest, which was held at Hafan y Mor Holiday Park, Caernarfonshire and Merionethshire, Wales, can be seen below.
