Dark Tranquillity release new album and tour US in February

Swedish melodic death metal masters Dark Tranquillity are about to return in late February/early March with their highly anticipated ninth studio album “We Are The Void”.

The band’s follow-up to 2007’s “Fiction” was recorded at (bassist) Daniel Antonsson’s Gothenburg Rock Studios and (keyboardist) Martin Brändström’s Rogue Music and mixed and mastered by Tue Madsen at Antfarm Studio in Denmark.
