Fatal Embrace: 'The Empires of Inhumanity'

Thrash metallers Fatal Embrace hailing from Berlin, Germany, are ready to release their new album 'The Empires of Inhumanity'.

With Mathias Wendt in charge of the production, Fatal Embrace completed the recording of the new album at Music Lab Studio in Berlin. 'The Empires of Inhumanity', the band's strongest album so far, deals with the most extreme and horrible fears and pains of mankind, the deepest depths of the human soul, the eternal struggle between good and evil, the life consuming beast. 'The Empires of Inhumanity' will take every metalhead on a trip to the battlefield of the armies of the undead and the darkness. The war between heaven and hell has finally begun.

1. (Intro) The Last Prayer
2. Wake the Dead
3. Nothing to Regret
4. Haunting Metal
5. Another Rotten Life

(older news about the topic:)

German thrash commando Fatal Embrace have inked a deal with Metal Blade Records for the worldwide release of their upcoming new album 'The Empires of Inhumanity'.

Formed in 1993, Fatal Embrace is not a band you would accuse of jumping on a bandwagen because thrash metal seems hip again. In fact, these young men started out in the early nineties (remember that was the time when thrash was dead) as a hard hitting metal band to praise the glorious days of the 80s when bands like Slayer, Exodus, Metallica, Venom, Sodom and Kreator ruled the musical extremes. Fatal Embrace never compromised and over the years they released three albums on different labels. 'The Ultimate Aggression' (1999), 'Legions of Armageddon' (2002) and 'Dark Pounding Steel' (2006). All of them pumped up with adrenaline, energy and power.

After playing an insane amount of gigs and a few smaller tours here and there, Fatal Embrace return with a new label and album in 2010. 'The Empires of Inhumanity' is a classic Fatal Embrace album showing the band at their best. Move over if you are into poser shit. Stay here if you are into straight forward thrash metal and wanna hear an album again full of malicious intensity, raw power and shitloads of instant hits!

Comments Fatal Embrace singer Heiländer on the signing to Metal Blade: "When I had my hands on Slayer's 'Hell Awaits' more than two decades ago I would never have expected to be on the same label one day. The Metal Blade logo is on dozens of albums in my vinyl collection and it's a great honour and challenge for us to be on this legendary label. We will work to the max and look forward to a great collaboration. Fatal Embrace will always stay Fatal Embrace: loud, extreme, brutal, fan friendly, timeless, without keyboards and 100000000% pure METAL!"
