Spanish thrash metal hopefuls ANGELUS APATRIDA are back for the attack with a new studio album, entitled The Call, released today, April 30th, all over Europe via Century Media Records.

Guillermo Izquierdo (guitars, vocals) has recorded a video clip explaining riff by riff, how to play the album’s dynamic opening song, 'You Are Next'. Check it out below:

The band recently released the video for 'You Are Next'. About the track the band comment: “We think that 'The Call' is a record that represents the wide variety of styles and elements in our music extremely well; every song stands alone strong and unique in its own way, making the album a whole piece that needs to be heard completely to get the full idea of the sound of the band. But, if we had to choose one song to represent the whole thing, it would be 'You Are Next' because, both lyrical and musically, it showcases the anger and fury we wanted to put into this album, and also reflects the step forward we feel we have made technically. It's a song that starts slowly and trying to capture the listener before exploding into a furious sonic assault."

Watch the video below:

The Call was completed with the same creative team as their previous release, Clockwork; it was again recorded in Moita, Portugal at Ultrasound Studio with producer Daniel Cardoso (ANNEKE VAN GIERSBERGEN, ANATHEMA) and artwork was handled by Gustavo Sazes from Abstrata (ARCH ENEMY, KRISIUN).

The final tracklisting is as follows:

'You Are Next'

'At The Gates Of Hell'

'Violent Dawn'

'It’s Rising!'

'Blood On The Snow'

'Killer Instinct'

'The Hope Is Gone'

'Fresh Pleasure'

'Still Corrupt'

'Reborn'

Guillermo Izquierdo remarks: “Our new album is ready and it's damn great! Our only purpose was to put everything we have learned in the last three years into a fistful of songs that could reflect how we feel nowadays. And the result couldn't have turned out any better…it's strong, fast, immediate, sharp, technical and bloody furious!"
