Artillery, one of the best thrash metal bands around, is currently working in Medley Studios, Denmark on the follow-up to their highly acclaimed album “When Death Comes” (2009). The new material entitled “My Blood” will be released by Metal Mind Productions in March 2011.
So far Artillery recorded 14 songs - 10 brand new tracks, a remake of “Ain´t Giving In” (from 1992´s "Mind Factory" demo) and 3 bonus tracks which are all new versions of timeless classics from the 1985’s album “Fear of Tomorrow” ("The Eternal War", "The Almighty", "Show Your Hate").

Soren Adamsen, Artillery’s vocalist, revealed a few titles of the new tracks. He also described the lyrics for those tracks: 1. “The Great Satan” – it’s a song about the decadence of the western society and evil empires all around the world. 2. “Monster” - a song about serial killers. None in particular. 3. “Death is an Illusion” - a track about life and death. 4. “The End of Eternity”- dealing with depression and thoughts about starting a new life. 5. “Mi Sangre” – it’s about my son. It’s a 7 and a half-minute song, almost an epic endeavor. 6. “Concealed in the Dark” - two words - David Sharp. Go search for it on the internet, it’s an interesting story. 7. “Dark Days” – it’s about the change in the climate. 8. “Warrior Blood” - a song about fighting. Soldiers, prize-fighters, people who are struggling with deadly diseases. What can we expect from the musical side of the new album? Guitarist Michael Stützer says: “The sound is a bit more heavy than it was on ‘When Death Comes’. The music is a mixture of our previous albums ‘When Death Comes’ and ‘By Inheritance’, with a slight touch of ‘Terror Squad’ and ‘Fear of Tomorrow’ with some oriental pieces.” Producer Søren Adamsen added: "There is an almost rock´n roll feeling in some of the songs".
The release date of "My Blood" is set for 9th March 2011 in Japan (via Kings Records), 21st March 2011 in Europe and 5th April 2011 in USA (via MVD). Full details to be announced soon.

Artillery’s brand new album "My Blood" has just been released in Europe and Japan.
“My Blood” is the follow-up to their highly acclaimed album “When Death Comes” from 2009 and contains 11 blistering tracks that fill the void between past glory and future splendor. New material was recorded between November 2010 and January 2011 at Medley Studios in Denmark with Søren Andersen as the producer. The band promote the new album with a video clip to the track “Warrior Blood” available on Metal Mind Productions’ channel on wlmailhtml:%7b5CE3DDAB-1EC4-463A-AD4D-4DBA787D1475%7dmid://00000018/!x-usc:http://www.youtube.com/profile?user=MetalMindPoland" rel="nofollow - YouTube .
What can we expect from the musical side of the new album? Guitarist Michael Stützer says: “The sound is a bit more heavy than it was on ‘When Death Comes’. The music is a mixture of our previous albums ‘When Death Comes’ and ‘By Inheritance’, with a slight touch of ‘Terror Squad’ and ‘Fear of Tomorrow’ with some oriental pieces.” So far their new record is getting rave reviews from European media. Here is the one from Greece: “Artillery definitely have sold their soul to the devil! Like another Faust the band and its members seem to have a second youth. How else can I explain the fact that the band opens this album with the amazing and over 7 and a half minutes long song entitled “Mi Sangre (The Blood Song)” which truly is an example of how thrash metal music must be played. And this song is only an appetizer, because what comes after it, can only be described as ‘all hell breaks loose’.” You can read the entire review wlmailhtml:%7b5CE3DDAB-1EC4-463A-AD4D-4DBA787D1475%7dmid://00000018/!x-usc:http://behindtheveil.freehostia.com/march_main.html#ARTILLERY" rel="nofollow - here .
The album is available as a jewel case CD and as a digipak CD including 2 bonus tracks. Japanese edition of the album includes an exclusive bonus track which is not available elsewhere. The US release date is set for 5th April (via MVD).
