DREAM EVIL have announced a new album!

Titled Metal Gods, the upcoming album from the Swedish heavy metal band is the long-awaited follow-up to 2017’s SIX, and is scheduled to be released in July this year, via Century Media Records.

The upcoming album features recording/mixing duties by guitarist Fredrik Nordström at his legendary Studio Fredman [IN FLAMES, AT THE GATES, HAMMERFALL, ARCH ENEMY, BRING ME THE HORIZON etc], and cover artwork by Seth Siro Anton [PARADISE LOST, EXODUS, ROTTING CHRIST etc].

Speaking about the upcoming album, the band says, “Metal Gods: DREAM EVIL are finally back! It has been seven years since we released our latest album SIX, so we are stoked to return with a vengeance now! The wait should not be in vain for anybody, as we are extremely happy with the outcome of all tracks on Metal Gods. It’s a loud and clear statement for DREAM EVIL and a respectful nod to our influences as well as to the traditional melodic heavy metal movement in general. We hope you will enjoy it as much as we do!?”

Alongside the announcement of the new album, the band have released a new music video for a new song lifted from the upcoming album; the title track Metal Gods. Speaking about the new song and its accompanying music video, the band says, “it’s all about our heavy metal heroes in the past and present, a tribute to the Metal Gods who created and perfected the genre heavy metal. It‘s always a blast to work with Patric Ullaeus and to watch the magic he creates…Play LOUD and enjoy!”
