Swiss extremists, Zeal & Ardor, continue apace towards the release of their self-titled, third album, with the release of epic, evocative new song, "Golden Liar".

Frontman Manuel Gagneux asserts, "’Golden Liar' is one of the tracks on this record I’m most proud of. Unlike singles released previously from the new album, it’s a slow burn. Rather than using harsh tones to convey heaviness, it uses lyrics and atmosphere to convey weight. It’s both smoke and fire."

Listen to "Golden Liar" here, and below:

Hissing and seeping justifiable rage from every pore - yet not an unrelenting musical battering - their forthcoming new album will be released February 11 via MVKA. The 14-track record was recorded by Marc Obrist and Manuel Gagneux at Hutch Sounds and mixed & mastered by Will Putney at Graphic Nature Audio. All songs were written and performed (except drums) by the softly spoken, multi-lingual Gagneux.

The avant-garde alchemists have been gradually sharing the highly anticipated album with fans, steadily unveiling new tracks in recent months. These include "Run", "Erase", "Bow", and most recently, the ferocious "Götterdämmerung".
