Leprous : nouvel album annoncé ; tournée européenne
Le quatuor norvégien Leprous (Progressive Metal) vient de dévoiler son cinquième album !
Baptisé "Malina", ce nouvel opus paraîtra le 25 août prochain via InsideOut Music et succèdera à The Congregation paru en 2015.
Quelques mots de Einar Solberg, vocaliste/claviériste du groupe, concernant cette nouvelle galette :
“We feel with ‘Malina’ that we've managed to achieve a natural sounding organic album with great songs that still sounds modern. Organic doesn't necessarily equal ‘retro’. While we still very much sound like Leprous, I believe that with this album we more accurately define as a rock band than a metal band. We're insanely proud of this album, and can't wait to share it with you all.”
"We wanted to try something new this time, and work with a new artist. Some good musician friends of ours recommended Corey Meyers. I checked him out, and damn he's good. This is the first time we've ever received the perfect cover on the first attempt. It represents the album perfectly and looks pretty amazing!"
En marge de l'annonce de ce nouvel album, les norvégiens ont également annoncé une tournée européenne, en compagnie des islandais d'Agent Fresco mais aussi de Alithia et Astrosaur.
