GOD DETHRONED - New Album Ready, European Tour Scheduled

Dutch deathsters GOD DETHRONED are gearing up for another Blitzkrieg European tour with VADER and SEVERE TORTURE. Being the main support and having their new album out during the tour will give the band a lot of well deserved exposure.

The Toxic Touch is the band's 6th album for Metal Blade Records and was recorded at Soundlodge Studios in Germany with Producer Joerg Uken. Mastering was handled at Wisseloord Studios in Holland.

The tracklisting is as follows: 'Faithless', 'Hating Life', '2014', 'Falling Down', 'On Wings of Pestilence', 'The Day You Died', 'Away From Emptiness', 'Macabre World', 'Typhoid Mary', 'Fail To Exist'.

The Japanese edition will have a bonus track called 'Bleeding Mirrors'.

"The Toxic Touch is the product of two years of extensive and intense touring all over the world. The new line-up has proved to be superior to all the previous ones. You could see it as a learning process. While everybody knows us as a band with a fine mix between the brutal and the melodic parts, people appreciate us mostly for our groove and melody, especially live. The new album reflects that more than ever before. The number of blast-beats on this album has been decreased to a minimum. Why? Simply because in a live situation it's probably the most boring part. In the new situation the blast-beat adds something special, the explosion, whereas in the past it was just a common part of our style and therefore ‘nothing special'", comments mainman Henri Sattler, and adds: "The Toxic Touch has become an album with new and broader influences, techniques and songwriting, but sounds exactly the way God Dethroned should sound anno 2006. This time with our best and heaviest production to date."

The Toxic Touch will be released on October 20th in G/A/S, and on October 23rd in Europe. The cover artwork will be revealed soon.
