The moment Nightingale fans have been waiting for is coming. It's pretty big news. The Swedish prog band just revealed that they are releasing their new album, the long overdue 7th studio album called Retribution via the band's new worldwide label InsideOut Music on November 10th, 2014. Take a look at the album cover and all the details below.

Nightingale was established by musical multi-talent and producer Dan Swanö (Edge Of Sanity, Witherscape) almost 20 years ago.

Dan Swanö, who contributes vocals, guitars and keyboards to the fold, commented as follows on Retribution: "We started putting material together for this album already around 2008, but out of all those songs only 2 made it to the album. I felt that, unless it is the best possible Nightingale album, where every song on the album easily could replace any song from our previous albums, there was no point in making a new album at all.

"During the writing of the Witherscape debut album, I wrote a lot of stuff that would work better on a Nightingale album, and before I knew it, I had the skeleton for a lot of potentially awesome Nightingale songs! It was important that the new material had the vibe of the older albums, yet with a better production and performance. I am very confident that all the Nightingale fans will love Retribution: since I made sure I felt the same rush inside me when I listened to the tracks that I did upon listening to the finished version of our most famous tracks from the past!"
