The Crown - New Album On The Way, Details Unveiled


It's been a while since we heard from Swedish death/thrash metallers The Crown. But good things come to those who wait, they say. While last year they announced they were recording their new album, now they have revealed all about it. Century Media will release of The Crown's eighth studio album Death Is Not Dead on January 12th, 2015. As for sad news, drummer Janne Saarenpää decided to focus on other things and left the group.

To give you a foretaste of what's to come, the group will release a limited 7" EP called Headhunter on October 27th. This EP includes one track of the upcoming album as well as an exclusive track on the b-side, a cover version of Napalm Death's classic "Unfit Earth" (originally from the Harmony Corruption album). The Crown have also launched their new website and posted a short sample from the single's title track. You'll find it all here.
