Spanish thrash metallers ANGELUS APATRIDA have released their new studio album, The Call, out this week all over Europe via Century Media Records. The album has entered the national sales charts in Spain at # 14, marking the label’s highest ever chart entry in the country.

Here’s a comment from the band, who are right now on the European highways in route to Germany to start their European tour tomorrow: “We couldn't be happier! We wanna thank everyone at Century Media for the great job. Amazing that we happened to be the only band that’s representing metal among all the acts in the Spanish charts, just now that we are about to embark on a tour that stands for nothing but fighting for heavy metal. Long live heavy metal!!!"
