GAMMA RAY – Empire Of The Undead Album Announcement Video Streaming
February 7, 2014, 10 years ago
Germany's GAMMA RAY will release their eleventh studio album, Empire Of The Undead, in North America on CD, LP and digitally via Armoury Records in conjunction with earMusic on March 28th. An album announcement video is now streaming below:
Gamma Ray worked on the new album during various sessions in 2013, during and in between their perennial tour with Eike Freese at the mixing desk supporting the ever precious work of bass player and co-writer Dirk Schlächter.
It was just after landing in South America, that unbelievable news reached Kai Hansen & co.: Hammer Studio, their home, rehearsal place, and studio and meeting point for many metal bands in Germany had been blown away by a terrifying fire-stroke, together with instruments, amps, tapes. Back in their home turf the band needed to get an overview about their losses only to do what they do best – move on!
With that usual Kai Hansen smirk he stated, "Life is too good to stop and moan. Nearly everything was destroyed, except the tapes of the almost finished new studio album. If this could not stop us... nothing ever will."
Empire Of The Undead will be released as CD, LP, Limited edition CD with extra visual content and a box that features the CD, a shirt and a poster.
