A message from Tommy! . In Wolfsburg Germany working hard to wrap up the new #Kamelot album. 📀 Very excited about making these songs come to life as we are taking some of them on the road for the US tour in April. 🔥 There are definitely some very solid, atmospheric soundscapes coming your way!

Fan-filmed video from Kamelot's Moscow show on November 9th is available below. Kobra And The Lotus vocalist Kobra Paige was a special guest for these shows.

In a new interview with Rock Overdose, Kamelot mastermind Thomas Youngblood talks about their next album, the band’s creation and more.

Asked how the writing for the new album is going, Thomas responds: “Going great, slow but really good. It harkens back to th Ghost Opera days a bit with Haven elements. I am excited!”

On if he has ideas about a theme for the new album, and if it will be a concept album or not, Youngblood says: “Can’t say yet, that is a secret.”
