Xandria announce new album ‘The Wonders Still Awaiting’

XANDRIA have announced a brand new album!

Titled The Wonders Still Awaiting, the upcoming album from the German symphonic metal band is the follow-up to 2017’s Theater Of Dimensions, and is scheduled to be released in February next year, via Napalm Records.

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; Ghosts. The new song is the third single to be released from the upcoming album, following on from Reborn and You Will Never Be Our God.

Speaking about the new song, and the upcoming album, the band says, “Ghosts actually started as a reminiscence to good old Swedish melodic death metal and with that archetypical guitar riff that you hear right in the beginning. And then we integrated it into our XANDRIA soundscape with lots of film score atmosphere and big choirs, because it was exciting to mix these elements and do our own thing with it (still we kept the working title Swedish Fire for a long time…).

It is a good example for how diverse the new album will be and how many different influences we were putting into it. We had a lot of things – little musical dreams – in our minds and hearts that we wanted to realize, and along with what you already heard in the first two new songs this is just one of them. There will be quite some more surprises coming…”
