Swedish blackened death metal veterans Fatal Embrace have announced the release of the band’s new studio album, entitled “Manifestum Infernalis”, which will be coming out on February 24th, 2023, via Black Lion Records. “Manifestum Infernalis” is the band’s long awaited first new work since 1997, many years have passed, but that doesn’t change anything and Fatal Embrace are “hungrier than ever and super excited to write, record and release new music again”!
Fatal Embrace on the new album:
“It’s been a long time coming. 30 years have passed since we formed Fatal Embrace back in 1992. It took us 30 years to make the album we always wanted to make. Everything on this album is done by ourselves. Everything. The process of making this album has taken almost 5 years of our lives and a lot has happened during this time. The world seemed to grow darker and darker around us as a pandemic descended upon the world. All this made for an inspiring time to write and record music. This is by far the darkest creation ever from Fatal Embrace and the darker the album became, the more it felt like therapy. A creative channel for when everything in the world takes a turn for the worse and keeps going south”.
Listen to the new track “Empyreal Doom” below.
“‘Empyreal Doom’ is the first single from our upcoming album ‘Manifestum Infernalis’. This song represents the album in every aspect. Both musically and lyrically ‘Empyreal Doom’ gives an insight into what can be expected from the upcoming album. Early fans of Fatal Embrace will most likely be in for a bit of a surprise at first before finding that this is still very much Fatal Embrace. We have been around for long enough to know that the ‘Empyreal Doom’ is inevitable for all of us”, the band comments.
“Manifestum Infernalis” was recorded, mixed, produced and mastered in Studiomega by Christian Silver and Fatal Embrace. Album artwork by Moon Sang. Layout and design by Andreas Johansson and Marcos Cerutti.
