ICED EARTH have begun the mixing phase for their upcoming studio album, Plagues Of Babylon.
A short message with the picture below states: "The mix for Plagues Of Babylon has begun - more news to follow soon!"
Vocalist/guitarist Jon Schaffer previously stated: "There’s quite a selection of epic heaviness on the way, for release early next year."
Iced Earth recently announced that Brent Smedley was stepping down from drum duty for personal family reasons. The new drummer is Raphael Saini, and he is performing with the group this summer.
On October 11th, VOLBEAT embark on their arena tour in support of their fifth album, Outlaw Gentlemen And Shady Ladies. The quartet will be joined by a company of good friends and accomplices; Iced Earth will be main support from October 11th in Milan until December 1st in Copenhagen.
As Michael Poulsen puts it: "It’s an honor again to share the road and stage with our brothers in legendary Iced Earth. I've been a huge fan (and still am) of Iced Earth since their self titled debut in 1990. We once shared the road with them in the US and now we're back together in Europe. We promise you heavy and we’re looking forward to seeing you all out there!"
Iced Earth mainman Jon Schaffer says: "I love Volbeat and touring with Michael and the boys was one of the greatest tours we have ever done. I cannot wait to repeat this and kick ass with this amazing package all over Europe."
