Dark Tranquillity vocalist Mikael Stanneis featured in a new interview with KaaosTV, which was cobnducted before the band´s show at Nummirock festival in Nummijärvi, Finland on June 25th. He discusses the band's forthcoming album and recent line-up changes.

A snippet of new music is also available below.

Founding Dark Tranquillity guitarist Martin Henriksson quit the band earlier this year. He issued the following statement:

"I recently quit the band. I feel I have lost the passion for playing music, and Dark Tranquillity deserves to have members that are 100% committed to the art. Therefore I decided it’s in everyone’s best interest to step aside and leave the band with the best possible ability to grow and get even stronger. I’ve had 26 years filled with wonderful memories and we made a lot of great music together, and for that I’m forever grateful. Thanks to all the fans, crew and other people involved that supported Dark Tranquillity through the years!"
