DELAIN: Epic Metal
Troupe's Third LP To See North American Release Via
Sensory
Dutch symphonic metal
troupe DELAIN have announced the
details of their upcoming third full-length studio effort, We Are The Others, now confirmed for
North American release this Summer via New Jersey-based top-tier progressive
metal label Sensory Records, while CNR Entertainment will handle the release in
The Netherlands and Roadrunner Records will handle the rest of
Europe.
The follow-up to DELAIN's worldwide critically-acclaimed
sophomore album April Rain -- also
released via the same Roadrunner/Sensory partnership in 2009 -- We Are The Others broadcasts the band's
epic brand of metal bigger than ever, as always fronted by the soaring, vibrant
vocals of Charlotte Wessels and drenched in the glorious keyboard passages of
band founder ex-Within Temptation keyboardist, Martijn
Westerholt.
Comprised of twelve
brand new anthems, We Are The Others
is an album littered with concepts in every aspect, from lyrically bridging
fantasy with reality and actual events in history, to the steampunk-influenced
cover art created by noted pop surrealist Glenn Arthur. DELAIN enlisted a massive production
team for the recording, including Jacob Hellner (Rammstein, Apocalyptica),
Fredrik Thomander and Anders Wikstrom (Scorpions, Backyard Babies), bringing
every element of the album to life. The band met Fear Factory vocalist Burton C.
Bell at Wacken Open Air, which resulted in a guest appearance on the album.
Sensory's special North American digipak edition features four additional live
bonus tracks exclusive to this pressing. View the cover art for We Are The Others and more http://www.earsplitcompound.com/site/2012/05/02/delain-epic-metal-troupes-third-lp-to-see-north-american-release-via-sensory/" rel="nofollow - AT THIS LOCATION .
Originally conceived
by Westerholt as an all-star studio project, the immediate success of the debut
album Lucidity quickly saw DELAIN evolving into a full-blown band.
The immediate impact of Lucidity put
Delain on tour, and as an instant live sensation across Europe, the band�s
popularity continued to grow with the release of their second album April Rain. The band found themselves on
tour throughout Europe, the United States, Mexico, and Brazil, with some of the
highlights of said touring including festival performances at Wacken Open Air,
Sonisphere, Lowlands, ProgPower USA, and Hellfest. As the band�s popularity grew
they evolved from a support act for Kamelot and Epica into full fledged
headliners across Europe.
Stay tuned as DELAIN unveil more new info on the new
album as well as tour dates across the planet over the months
ahead.
