The band is more motivated than ever and have already inked a deal with Xtreem Music for the release of a new mini-CD, as well as their upcoming albums, first of them expected for 2013.
The new mini-CD is already recorded and entitled Sacrifice The King, featuring six songs in the already traditional Finnish death Mmetal for which the band is well known. The current line-up cosists of original members Juha Ranniko (guitars) and Harri Salo (drums) plus new member Ville (bass/vox). Cover artwork had been again done by cult artist Chris Moyen.
Release date for Sacrifice The King is expected in June (vinyl version will come later) and the band is already working on 12 new songs for their sophomore album, expected during the first half of 2013.
