Finnish melodic death metal band OMNIUM GATHERUM have announced that the album New World Shadows is now streaming online for the next few days at this location.

New World Shadows was released in Europe earlier this year and will see a release in North America on March 1st.

As previously reported, Omnium Gatherum recently released a teaser trailer for the new album. Watch the video below:

New World Shadows was recorded at Astia Studio 2 in Lappeenranta and OmG Studio in Karhula, Finland with Teemu Aalto, and was mixed and mastered at Unisound Studio in Örebro, Sweden by Dan Swanö (EDGE OF SANITY, OPETH, KATATONIA, DISSECTION, HAIL OF BULLETS, BLOODBATH).

The new album includes clean vocals from Dan Swanö, "growling screams" from Niilo Sevänen (INSOMNIUM) and "punishing organs" from Mikko "Monni" Reinamo (KAIHORO/WOLFTRAP).

Regarding the material for the bands forthcoming CD, the band remarked recently: "This time we really put a lot of time and effort on the pre-production of the stuff. It's going to be an epic and massive attack of ever-flowing stream of Finnish melodic death metal, straight from the souls of black.”

Singer Jukka Pelkonen adds: "This is the album I've been wanting to do for years. Here it is, the OG's musical evolution and career of 15 years in metal and this album surely is finally the musical diamond what we were starting to chase once we started this band, finally every piece of the puzzle are here and the notes on the right places! This is northern death metal without limitations, really melodic and intelligent but still aggressive while quoting lines from prog to even AOR and no less than having also my teenage idol sir Dan Swanö himself singing some stuff here, like we say it - this is adult oriented death metal in it's most epic, melodic and purest form!"
