Dread Sovereign announce new album ‘Alchemical Warfare’

DREAD SOVEREIGN have announced a new album!

Titled Alchemical Warfare, the upcoming album from the Irish doom metal band is the follow-up to 2017’s For Doom the Bell Tolls and is scheduled to be released in January next year, via Metal Blade Records.

“Our motto when we started was ‘The World is Doomed’…and it seems life is imitating art…as we are looking like filthy prophets!” says vocalist/bassist Nemtheanga of the upcoming album. “Several years in the making, the new DREAD SOVEREIGN is ready for the End of the World, which might be next year in case you didn’t know! A bit more reckless and up-tempo than the previous releases, yet the template remains doom, Alchemical Warfare just has a bit more VENOM and MOTÖRHEAD thrown into the mix. If it’s the end of days we might as well go out with middle fingers raised right?”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for the first song to be taken from the upcoming album; Nature Is The Devil’s Church.
