Portugal's AVA INFERI have issued the following update:

"The blood of life and celebration...

It is with great enthusiasm and joy I hereby announce the title of the third release from our Coven: Blood Of Bacchus.

Indeed! And to feed the fire further, we can also reveal some of our song titles for this upcoming and defining piece of music: 'Fireflies', 'A Witch She Was, The Witch I Am', 'Lights', 'Last Sign Of Summer', 'All The Colours Of The Dark'.

We, or perhaps I, must confess that this is easily the most interesting album I've been writing on ever. It surely has it all, and we are quite confortable with the outcome of everything to this point.

From our more conscious moments of theatric Gothic Doom to enchanting Bacchanalian rituals.This is the album that will carve our name deep into the memories of modern earth. A pure and true moment of music.

We are also in talks with some long-running and highly regarded studios for us to expand our universe even further. More data on the when's, who's and how's will appear here shortly.

Several live shows has also been confirmed now, and more will definitely come as the month develops.

So far we have three shows in Portugal confirmed, the Hellfest-case announced, on in Norway plus also TBA appearances in Northern Ireland, Denmark and Bulgaria within the fall of this year.

The confirmed dates at this stage are as follows:

June

13 - Uptown Bar - Porto, Portugal
14 - Auditório Vagos - Vagos, Portugal
20 - Hellfest - Cisson, France

July

19 - Teatro Iberico - Lisboa, Portugal (special showcase)

October

11 - Club Maiden - Oslo, Norway

Stay tuned for an update on the northern leg in October, as we are in talks with several parties for an almost week-long extention.

I will shortly get back to you with more details regarding our new album as well, also informing you about the extras that this release will contain. Interesting times ahead, believe us..."
