Kamelot recently launched an official web page dedicated solely to their new album, Silverthorn, due out on October 30th in North America, October 26th in Germany and October 29th in the rest of Europe via Steamhammer/SPV. It will receive its Japanese release October 24th via King Records.

The page features an album biography including production notes, tour dates and international pre-order links. Go to this location to check it out.

Kamelot's new single, 'Sacrimony (Angel Of Afterlife)', was released September 4th on iTunes. A snippet of the song can be heard heard below:

New footage of Kamelot shooting the video clip for the song 'Sacrimony (Angel Of Afterlife)' can be viewed below. The clip features guest appearances by Elize Ryd (AMARANTHE) and Alissa White-Gluz (THE AGONIST).

The Silverthorn LP and limited edition will have one version of the art, while the standard version of Silverthorn will have a different but equally exquisite version of the artwork. The standard version is presented as an Ecolbook. The limited edition contains the Ecolbook, a bonus CD with nearly 60 minutes of music, a 44 page book and an exclusive poster. The double LP version is a gatefold on colored vinyl and includes the CD.

Youngblood says of the artwork: "Artist Stefan Heilemann captured the true essence of the story and the main character. The booklet and 44 page book is packed with amazing images!"

Kamelot recently recently announced that Swedish vocalist Tommy Karevik, the frontman for SEVENTH WONDER, has been tapped as the band's new singer (replacing Roy Khan).
