Comments the band: "This work of art is nothing more than the picture of an old world coming to an end. The author, Eliran Kantor, perfectly interpreted the concept behind the album. The King represents the last stand of integrity and justice in a court infested by traitors, villains, perverts, parasites and prostitutes. In an era that looks more like the Middle Ages than the 21st Century, we felt the necessity to express our indignation for the constant loss of values and our despise for mediocrity and commercial use of superstitions.
"The question is, are we sure everything that is 'new' is right? Are we sure we are not losing the perception of what is the real value of things? Perhaps the essence of that King lies inside everyone of us but it's just dimmed by the mist of deceit and (ir)rational superfluity. Perhaps we should all hail the King we have inside."
King is scheduled for release in early 2016 via Nuclear Blast Records. The album was tracked at Kick Recording and 16th Cellar studios in Rome, and was mixed and mastered by the world-renowned Jens Bogren (Amon Amarth, At The Gates, Arch Enemy) at Fascination Street studio in Sweden. We will keep you updated on the exact release date and more details as they are revealed.

A nice change from the merh covers of Agony and Labyrinth - Agony in particular had a bad case of overproduced "Nuclear Blast" cover syndrome.

The album has a lame title but the artwork is wonderfully executed and it sure is much better than last 2 albums' shitty covers.

I don't care much for this band but this cover art is really badass.

I was really expecting a Sith Siro Anton cover art. I'm glad I was wrong

I hope the new album will be closer to Agony than to Labyrinth tho. Not a bad album but I don't really enjoy the way all instruments merge together. Think they had found a perfect balance in Agony.

Posts: 665 Quote: I think Seth's artworks are repetitive and overrated but I don't know I kind of have a good feeling when I see an album with artworks like this one. I had the same feeling about Heaven Shall Burn's album Veto which is close to this and it turned out OK. We'll just have to wait for the music and find out!

Surprised to see a new style of artwork for an album of theirs again, but judging by how their sound evolved this fits well just the flat, single coloured writing is out of place, would be better with a shaped metal look similar to the chair

That guy kinda looks like Varg.
