Fans will recognise the aggressive, muscular groove of ‘No One Escapes’ from the last tour when the song became a regular in the band’s setlist.
“Never A Good Day To Die”, co-written by frontman Chris Appleton and brother Luke – also of American metallers ICED EARTH– is available for pre-order now at http://www.absolva.com , & features powerful riffs, incredible light and shade, plus contemporary traces, in a combination which is elemental to the Absolva sound.
Chris Appleton has this to say…. “We’re completely knocked out by the number of pre-orders so far & we thank each & every fan for their amazing support. Heart & soul has gone into this album; there’s a lot of lead guitar on it, which is what fans tell us they want to hear from us, & the riffs are aggressive & punchy. I think it’s a very natural step forward from the last record. It’s been fantastic to be able to work with Luke again this year; he’s become a gifted songwriter & his last 3 years experience with Iced Earth shines through. Martin has delivered outstanding drum parts once again & Karl’s studio debut has been a revelation.”

Absolva is also thrilled to be returning to co-headline Wizzfest, in Belgium, on 19th March for what is expected to be a single exclusive show for the first 5-6 months of 2016. The first half of next year for Chris, Martin and Karl, is mainly to be spent touring as Blaze Bayley‘s backing band for an extensive European Tour, whilst Luke will be returning to Iced Earth after their recent hiatus.
