Artillery to release 'Penalty by Perception' album in March
Danish power thrash metallers Artillery have scheduled their new album 'Penalty by Perception' for release March, 25th through Metal Blade Records.
Listen now to the first single 'In Defiance of Conformity' at metalblade.com/artillery and check out the front art and the pre-order section. 'Penalty by Perception' will be released as a limited digi-CD with bonus track (*), as a double-vinyl and on all digital outlets. You can order an exclusive shirt bundle through the landing page.
Certainly, old and new fan alike are excited about new album, 'Penalty by Perception', where they'll have 11 tracks to learn. Written over the course of the last two years, Artillery's seventh full-length draws from classic albums like 'Fear of Tomorrow' and 'By Inheritance' as well as 'When Death Comes' and 'Legions'. "It's an Artillery album that's both familiar yet modern in its attack. 'Penalty by Perception' has the typical Artillery riffing, with powerful drumming and melodic singing," asserts guitarist Michael Stützer. "It's full of catchy hook-lines. We also wanted the sound to be a bit heavier and more powerful than on 'Legions'."
Thanks to producer Søren Andersen and Medley Studios, Artillery got the sound they were looking for. "We worked really hard together to get this amazing sound. I feel the band have come up with some great songs. The best musical performance in the history of Artillery. Can't wait to hear the fans' reaction!"
