German melodic death metal pioneers BURDEN OF GRIEF have issued the following update:

"After many weeks of quiescence we are back with a vengeance and with tons of news for you guys!

Our new album, Follow The Flames, is completely finished and ready to take off. We have recorded 10 songs, which in our opinion are the strongest Burden Of Grief songs so far. And in addition to these songs we have recorded 8 (!) cover songs for a limited-edition 2CD version.

And to put a crown on top of this, we had the honour to have some highly reputated guest-musicians singing together with Mike.

The tracklisting is as follows:

'Ignition' (Intro)

'Follow The Flames'

'Born In Fire'

'The Arms Of Death'

'Disruption Of A Confused Mind'

'Doomed To Fail'

'No Way Out'

'Mirror Of Truth'

'Burning Red Eyes'

'Fallen'

'Rise Like A Phoenix'

Bonus CD:

'Aces High (IRON MAIDEN)

'The Four Horsemen' (METALLICA)

'Break On Through' (THE DOORS) feat. Dan Swanö (EDGE OF SANITY)

'Mouth For War' (PANTERA)

'Fool For Your Loving' (WHITESNAKE)

'Refuse/ Resist' (SEPULTURA) feat. Sabina Classen (HOLY MOSES)

'Hell Ain't A Bad Place To Be' (AC/DC)

'Valhalla' (BLIND GUARDIAN) feat. Gerre (TANKARD)

The mix and mastering of that album was done by Swedish metal-icon Dan Swanö. The cover artwork was done by Gustavo Saves (ARCH ENEMY, SONIC SYNDICATE, GOD FORBID).

And we are very happy to announce that we have inked a new deal with our old record-label Massacre Records again!!! The album will be released this summer and we are looking forward to a successful cooperation!!!

So check out the new song-preview!!!"
