Fall of Serenity Set US Release

(PR) German behemoth Fall of Serenity is set to bring its fourth full-length, The Crossfire, to American soils on May 13th. But much has changed since we last heard from the death-thrash ax slayers.

After 2006's herculean Bloodred Salvation, long-time bass player John Gahlert hooked up with the microphone, while guitarist Alex Fischer switched over to the bass and Ferdinand Rewicki joined the band on the vacant 6-string spot. All the personnel shifting made for a creatively reinvigorated FoS, and a gargantuan leap forward from the group's previous work. Clearly trumpeting the vintage bay area spirit of the 80s, The Crossfire is a confident slab of ultra-heavy thrash, bolstered by massive guitars, smartly-written hooks, and extreme metal's characteristic brutality. The Crossfire was produced and recorded at the well known Rape Of Harmonies Studio by Ralf M�ller (Impending Doom, Maroon, Heaven Shall Burn, etc) and was mixed and mastered by legendary metal-minded Swede Dan Swan�.

Singer John Gahlert on the new tunes: "We have worked hard to have these new circumstances within the band. There's a new spirit we feel, pushing us forward into a slightly different and thrilling destination. The Crossfire is our statement against musical boundaries and bigotry. Working with Dan Swan� (hail to the king!) was another new piece in the puzzle and it perfectly fits to the aura of our sound. After Leif Jensen (Dew-Scented) appeared on the last album Bloodred Salvation, we forced female metal icon Sabina Classen (Holy Moses, Temple Of The Absurd) to be part of the new record...with fantastic result, she has a great and authentic voice. We are really looking forward to the things to come."
