Sworn Enemy will release their punishing new album, Gamechanger, on April 5th via M-Theory Audio. The album - produced by Robb Flynn of Machine Head, and engineered, mixed and mastered by Zack Ohren (Suffocation, Fallujah, Warbringer) - features 11 tracks that expertly fuse metal, thrash and New York hardcore.

Sal Lococo says the new album - nearly five years in the making - will be worth the wait. “The new album is savage as fuck,” he says. “Now it’s time to get back out on the road and show everyone how fucking great this new shit is!”

The album is available now for pre-order on CD and limited-edition blue splatter vinyl, here. As a bonus, the first 100 pre-orders include a bonus Sworn Enemy fanny pack and three button pins. Digital pre-orders via iTunes, Bandcamp and other platforms include “Prepare For Payback” as an “instant grat” track.
