Saille return with new album 'Eldritch'

Belgian melodic black metal band Saille have set 'Eldritch' as the title of their third full-length album. The album is currently being recorded and cover artwork will be created by Negakinu, a Dutch based designer who will develop the band to a new level.

Saille singer Dennie Grondelaers commented: "We have created what we hope will be a step up from 'Ritu'. A tight concept with the right audial and visual stimulation, our most interesting lyrics to date and the best songwriting thus far. Saying that we're excited would be an understatement."

The album will again be released by Code666/Aural Music on November 10th 2014 through a Belgian release show. The band will also perform on Eindhoven Metal Meeting 2014 (December 12/13 – Eindhoven – NL) among bands as Triptykon, At The Gates, Unleashed and many others.

Regarding the new album's title, Grondelaers said: "Since the beginning of storytelling man has been fascinated with the fearful, the uncanny and the weird. Things that go bump in the night. Things that in their very nature can best be described as 'Eldritch'. With our newest release we will not be breaking new ground when it comes to original concepts, and we don't want to. What we do want is to give the listener a brief introduction to several of the best 'Eldritch' works of fiction that exist. Some of them contemporary, others written around the turn of the previous century and one or two considered highly influential classics. But none of them should ever be forgotten. For how much fun would a world without a little bit of fear be?"
