On May 7th 2021 Thrash Metallers ARTILLERY will release their tenth full-length “X” via Metal Blade Records. For a first preview of the upcoming album the new single, “In Thrash We Trust”, can be heard below.
X was tracked in Medley Studio in Copenhagen, Denmark with producer Søren Andersen, who the band have worked with on every record since 2009’s “When Death Comes”. As well as his production work, Andersen contributed some keyboards to “The Ghost Of Me”, also adding some effects to a few other songs, and the band recruited their drivers/merch men to contribute some backing vocals on four tracks.
Guitarist Michael Stützer comments: “We wanted to have the typical ARTILLERY trademarks, like the riffs and hook lines in the usual combination together with aggression and melody. We always try to combine melodic thrash metal with elements from the heavy sounds of the 70s and the 80s, and this time with new elements in some of the songs. We don’t have to push ourselves hard when we’re writing a record because we love what we’re doing.”
