Legendary Bristish heavy metal band SATAN are releasing their new album, Life Sentence, on April 29th in Europe and in May in North America, via Listenable Records.

The cover artwork was drawn by Eliran Kantor (TESTAMENT, HATEBREED, SODOM) and depicts a similar graphic concept as Satan's debut album, Court In The Act, originally issued 30 years ago. Life Sentence is a very strong uptempo heavy metal album that is undoubtly bound to become a classic of the music genre.

Tracklisting is as follows:

'Time To Die'

'Twenty Twenty Five'

'Cenotaph'

'Siege Mentality'

'Incantations'

'Testimony'

'Tears Of Blood'

'Life Sentence'

'Personal Demons'

'Another Universe'

The songs deal with the following topics: injustice, impending death, reincarnation, atonement, third-world politics, and biblical retribution.

Satan's classic Court In The Act lineup, including singer Brian Ross and SKYCLAD's Graeme English and Steve Ramsey, will perform at the Wings Of Metal festival in Montreal, QC. This special event is their first appearance in North America.

Satan is one of the most important groups that emerged in the early NWOBHM era. Their unique mixture of heavy and power metal spirit with thrash riffage brought a handful of unforgettable tunes and revolutionized heavy music as we know it. Court In The Act was Satan's debut release and was considered a true milestone at the time of its release (1983). The songs were melodic, but at the same time very aggressive. The band’s two guitarists, Russ Tippins and Steve Ramsey, delivered a truly amazing performance; although their styles were completely different, they managed to perfectly complement each other’s playing and introduced a handful of timeless riffs and solos. Their new album, Life Sentence, which will be released in March/April by Listenable Records is to coincide with the 30th anniversary of their first LP, Court In The Act.
