Anubis Gate did hit the studio in the Summer of 2013 recording their new opus 'Horizons' which is unmistakably Anubis Gate's sound yet goes again to new places. Places perhaps one would call daring from the liquid grooves to uneven time signatures, trademark soundscapes and heavy, sometimes even thrash metal riffing you will know this is both in the tradition of the band yet breaks new ground. Anubis Gate blend 80s melodic heavy rock, epic ambience and a contemporary dark layered progressive metal. Inspired by the likes of Savatage, Genesis, Iron Maiden, Queensrÿche, King Crimson, Iced Earth, Crimson Glory, Fates Warning, Lord Bane and Tad Morose yet sounding completely unique. New guitarist Michael Bodin's heavy riffing works exceptionally well in a duel with long time guitarist Kim Olesen. The forward driving drums, courtesy of new drummer Morten Gade Sørensen, are a treat in themselves. Henrik Fevre's melodic vocals are even more amazing and heartfelt than ever before. 'Horizons' showcases the band on its highest peak. Anubis Gate 2014 is: Henrik Fevre, Kim Olesen, Michael Bodin and Morten Gade Sørensen.
The CD version will contain a hidden fan treasure not found on the digital sites. There will be a CD-Rom EP that was recorded live in 2005, including 4 tracks and dedicated artwork. The tracks are live versions of songs from their first two albums 'Purification' and 'A Perfect Forever'.
