The longest living and most resilient tank of Poland’s Death Metal fleet, VADER, has once again hoisted its flag – ready to overrun the world with its new triumphant procession. They recently fired their first warning shot with their “Iron Times” EP, and now VADER are building their own all conquering empire with new studio album “The Empire” (out 4th November).

Today, the band release the digital double single “Prayer to the God of War” and “Parabellum” as instant grat tracks. Pre-Order “The Empire” now and get both Songs directly as a download: http://nblast.de/VaderDownloads

Without doubt, “The Empire” falls under the category of VADER’s classic albums. The impressive monument that they have built with their 13th studio album will immediately find its place in metal history. And it will also prove that VADER don’t need to make their peace with the world; they never did, and they certainly don’t now – especially after writing more than 30 years’ worth of Death Metal history.

The globally conquering weapon was produced, mixed and mastered by Wojtek and Slawek Wiesawski. “The Empire” was completed within the secret bunkers of Hertz Studios in Bialystok, Poland. The weapon is going to be unleashed upon the world on November 4th, 2016 by commanders in chief, Nuclear Blast.

Currently VADER are on their “Transsiberian Blitz 2016 Eastern Leg Tour” and right after they’ll start the “Rise Of The Empire Asia 2016” tour and in November is the turn of Europe to have their extra portion of VADER-power! Check out below all the upcoming tours:
