As previously announced, L-G Petrov, Nico Elgstrand, Victor Brandt and Olle Dahlstedt will continue under the name ENTOMBED A.D. to release the album Back To The Front, which is due out August 4th in Europe and August 5th in North America via Century Media Records. Check out Back To The Front’s first single, “Bedlam Attack”, here:

You can also download the track as a free MP3 HERE.

Vocalist L-G Petrov comments: “It was the first song we recorded for the album, fitting that it’s the first one out! We had a hard time getting it right due to its somewhat unorthodox arrangement. Took its bloody time before everybody started to really like it, now we do though, and very much so, thank Satan! It’s about losing one’s mind in a mental hospital. Obviously you’ve lost it already since you’re locked in. This is about when you really lose it and realize that you have to get out before things go completely tits up inside your head. All the while knowing deep inside that you will never get out.”

Back To The Front was recorded at Studio Bohus in Kungalv, Sweden with producer Roberto Laghi (IN FLAMES, HARDCORE SUPERSTAR). The cover artwork was painted by Zbigniew Bielak (WATAIN, VADER, etc.).

ENTOMBED A.D. are:
L-G Petrov – vocals
Nico Elgstrand – guitars
Victor Brandt – bass
Olle Dahlstedt – drums

ENTOMBED And CENTURY MEDIA RECORDS Announce Worldwide Deal And New Album In October 2013

Century Media Records issues that ENTOMBED just finished recording and mixing their 10th album called “Back To The Front” at Studio Bohus (Abba, Europe) in Sweden with producer Roberto Laghi (In Flames, Hardcore Superstar). The cover artwork of the new album was painted by Zbigniew Bielak (Watain, Vader, etc.). “Back To The Front” will be released worldwide through Century Media Records on October 28th in Europe and October 29th in North America. Don’t be afraid that it will sound like Abba – it’s 666% true to the ENTOMBED everybody loves. While not falling for total regression back to the early classics “Left Hand Path” or “Clandestine”, expect a total bone-crushing opus that will have fans of “Wolverine Blues”, “To Ride,…” or “Morning Star” cry tears of joy. From the morbid, pissed-off lyrics over detuned, massive riffs to the inimitable brick-heavy groove and L-G Petrov’s titanic roar, “Back To The Front” has it all, so get ready for a stone cold stunner!

L-G Petrov (vocals) comments: “After almost 7 years of studio absence we are back with a new album called Back To The Front ready to blow metalheads away around this world! Feels great to announce this deal with Century Media ! Can’t wait to let u all be a part of it!”

Jens Prueter, Head Of A&R Century Media Records Europe: “I first saw ENTOMBED in 1992 on the Gods Of Grind tour and was blown away by their merciless sound that was even back then more than just death metal. Over 20 years later they still kick ass and we are more than proud to finally welcome them to the CM family. Cheers!”

The band formed under the name NIHILIST in 1987 and changed its name to ENTOMBED in 1989. Together with Morbid (for whom singer L-G played drums), Treblinka/Tiamat, Grave and Dismember, ENTOMBED/NIHILIST belong to the earliest bands to forge the immortal Swedish death metal sound that became as popular and unique as the more technical, less punkish Florida-trademark style emerging around the same time. Inspired by such diverse acts as Autopsy, Mot??ad, Discharge or Kiss, over the years ENTOMBED did not shy away from thinking outside of the coffin resulting in an unique style some fans called Death’n’Roll but in the end it’s just a band with a style and impact entirely their own. A sound that has influenced thousands of bands from metal to hardcore to rock and now the legend returns to show you all that they still master it like no one else.

ENTOMBED: Guitarist Discusses Reissue Campaign

Swedish metal veterans ENTOMBED recently teamed up with PledgeMusic to launch a reissue campaign for some of their albums.

Speaking to PledgeMusic, ENTOMBED guitarist Alex Hellid stated: “We’ve been waiting to reissue these albums for a very long time and, yes, it has definitely been something of a journey to get to this point!

“We started thinking about this project and how to do it about 10 years ago, when our license agreement with then label partner Music For Nations ended, longing for the day we could make sure all our albums would be available again properly.

“In 2007, we actively started to talk to possible partners. It looked like we were going to begin rereleasing stuff in 2008. Never thought it would take this long but was determined to find the right way to do it.

“PledgeMusic was worth the wait and a perfect first step in our quest to reintroduce ENTOMBED to old and new ears exactly like we want to, and tell our story. I’m personally very pleased, to say the least, and glad we waited for some ‘new roads’ to be built.”

Asked if anything surprised him as he went back through the older material, Hellid said: “Yes, I am surprised every day now as I find more and more things I haven’t heard or seen in a long time and, in some cases, had forgotten about or didn’t even know existed. I’ve started to rediscover the ‘To Ride…’ album, for example, and realize how much cool stuff is actually on there, remembering what we went through and what we were thinking at the time. [I am] very much look forward to doing that with that with rest of the albums too and sharing those memories and thoughts.”

Threeman Recordings, which is owned and run by members of ENTOMBED, recently launched a new collaboration with Ninetone Records. The first release under this arrangement was a single for the re-recorded version of the song “Amok” from ENTOMBED‘s 2007 album, “Serpent Saints – The Ten Amendments”, produced by Patrik Frisk (CORRODED).

“Serpent Saints – The Ten Amendments” was released in the U.S. on July 31, 2007 via Candlelight/Threeman Recordings. The 10-song effort marked the group’s first release with drummer Olle Dahlstedt (ALPHA SAFARI, ex-MISERY LOVES CO.), who replaced Peter Stjärnvind in 2006. Mastering duties were handled by Soren Elofsson at Cosmos Mastering in Stockholm, Sweden.

“Serpent Saints – The Ten Amendments” entered the Swedish national chart at position No. 3. This was the highest chart position in the band’s career.

The current lineup of ENTOMBED features Victor Brandt (TOTALT JÄVLA MÖRKER, AEON, SATYRICON) and second guitarist Nico Elgstrand (who previously played bass for the group).
