Swedish thrashers THE HAUNTED return with a long-overdue live DVD/CD release, entitled Road Kill, just in time for their upcoming European tour dates with SLAYER. The title (out now in Europe) will be released in North America on June 8th via Century Media.

A track from the CD, 'Little Cage', is currently streaming at the band's MySpace page.

The DVD features an in-depth, very unique “on the road movie” documentary, an intense recording of The Haunted's current and up-to-date live set and the band’s recent promotional video clips as bonus. The intense live show was captured in Amsterdam’s Melkweg on February 13th, 2009 by Fabchannel and its sound was mixed and mastered by longterm band-producer Tue Madsen.

The Haunted’s Anders Björler produced the documentary and looks forward to finally share it with the fans, commenting as follows: "Road Kill is 10 years of touring compressed into a 65-minute documentary feature. It's rough, dirty, honest and to the point. After working almost 2 years on and off on this film, I am pleased it will finally see the light of day."

Vocalist Peter Dolving adds: "This DVD is a slice of life, a peek into what it's like being on the road with The Haunted. Buy it, watch and enjoy, when you are dead and buried you won't be able to, will you?"

Check out a trailer for Road Kill below.

This crushing live release will be available as DVD plus CD but also as stand-alone CD and digital download. The audio-only release contain the full live-show as well as 5 previously unreleased or rare studio tracks from the Versus recording sessions.

Catch The Haunted live as direct support of the mighty Slayer and during the upcoming festival season all over Europe in the next months. The band has recently confirmed additional headlining shows to compliment the routing, so check out the dates and more on The Haunted at the-haunted.com and myspace.com/thehaunted.
