Swedish metal band Steelwing have unveiled the cover artwork of their upcoming album, Reset, Reboot, Redeem. The artwork was created by Swedish artist Sandra Österberg Brolin.

The band states: "For this album we wanted a cover with a genuine artistic feel. We chose to work with Sandra Österberg Brolin, a talent we know, because of her distinctive eerie style. The cover art is an oil painting depicting a human skull in the burning ruins of a city - the symbolism should be obvious."

Reset, Reboot, Redeem is due for release on November 20th. It was recorded, mixed and co-produced by Swedish death metal legend Fred Estby (Necronaut, The Dagger, ex-Dismember) at Gutterview Recorders, with additional parts recorded by Nicko DiMarino in Deep Blue Studios where the band's early sound was once formed.

"We envisioned a gritty attitude and more organic drum sound for these songs, so naturally we turned to Fred who is known for delivering just that. Since we have grown up listening to Dismember, it was truly an honor to work with him. I knew the new material would be very demanding to sing, so we decided to record the vocals with Nicko, an old friend of the band who has been with us from day one. We know we can always trust his ears and skill when the going gets tough."

Conceptually Steelwing continue to develop on the post-apocalyptic themes of the previous two albums. Where Lord Of The Wasteland focused on Mad Max-esque highway marauders and Zone Of Alienation described mutant-infested havens in outer space, Reset, Reboot, Redeem takes on a more serious misanthropic note: the current flawed state of mankind must be sacrificed to pave way for a trans-humanistic new breed - or all life on Earth will face extinction. One of many firsts for this album is a song in the band’s native tongue: “Och världen gav vika” (translation: “And the World Collapsed”).

The first song from Reset, Reboot, Redeem released on YouTube is the title-track - an intense speed metal onslaught that will leave listeners gasping for air in its wake.

"This song sums up everything this album is about. Our fans will recognize the trademark Steelwing speed and energy, but we're also introducing the darker vibes, technical breaks and diverse influences - it’s an undeniable evolution from anything we’ve done in the past.”
