Wasaga Beach, Ontario's THE TIDE WILL TAKE US have issued the following update:

"Due to some financial troubles and artistic differences we've parted ways with our drummer, Dave Hilder, and our guitarist, Jesse Carter. We wish them all the best in what the future brings them.

Fear not, this is not the end of The Tide Will Take us. We are rebuilding we will still be playing our dates in May just not touring. we have a select few days - Montreal and Quebec City dates, one after the other... and then a four-day mini tour out east. We will keep you updated on our members and other things."

The Tide Will Take Us recently announced they will be officially releasing their full-length album, Putrid Dynasty - produced by Jon Howard of THREAT SIGNAL and Bjorn “Speed” Strid of SOILWORK - on Tuesday, May 1st.

The band have now revealed the album artwork and tracklisting. Check out the artwork by Krishawnia Grey below:

The tracklisting:

'Concubine Queen'

'Choke On Your Regret'

'Putrid Dynasty'

'Perdition'

'Metastasize And Consume'

'Mouth Breaker'

'King Of Damnation'

'Sinister Revelation'

'The Dead Call'

The album is the follow up to their self-titled 5-song debut EP, produced by Kent Sheehey (THE VEGAS WAKE UP) and is a sonic fury that is immediately audible as it rips, pounds and rages through your ears. Song titles like 'Choke On Your Regret', 'Putrid Dynasty', 'Concubine Queen' and 'Metastasize & Consume' demonstrate TTWTU's reach to the deepest, darkest abscesses of the listener’s brain before even a single note sounds and conjures grotesque imagery.

"When gearing up to record Putrid Dynasty we wanted to expand our sound, but also keep the same feel as our self-titled EP. Working with two professional musicians was quite the change, though, as it pushed us to write the best material we've written so far. It was a hard adjustment to make and was also very intimidating to work with Jon Howard, Canadian native and vocalist of Threat Signal, but just as rattling if not more to work with Björn "Speed" Strid of the Swedish metalcore act Soilwork. We got to explore various tone options for drums, guitars and bass and the vocal tracking was extremely fun and experimental. We are very proud of our full-length album Putrid Dynasty and we are very excited for its May 2012 release", commented TTWTU guitarist Mike Longeri.

TTWU is now streaming the first single from the album, 'Choke On Your Regret, below:
