ENSLAVED: Entire New Album Available For Streaming

September 22, 2008

"Vertebrae", the new album from the Norwegian masters of progressive/experimental metal ENSLAVED, is available for streaming in its entirety at Terrorizer.com. The CD will be released in Europe on September 29 via Indie Recordings and in North America on October 28 through Nuclear Blast Records (via a licensing arrangement with Indie Recordings).

"Vertebrae" was recorded during the first months of 2008 — then mixed by Joe Barresi (TOOL, QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE) and mastered by the legendary George Marino in Sterling Sound. Produced by Ivar Bjørnson, Herbrand Larsen and Grutle Kjellson, "Vertebrae" is "one of the strongest albums to emerge from the extreme metal scene," according to a press release. "The sound, songs and atmosphere mark a great leap for the band and genre as a whole."

The album will be supported by extensive touring starting with the the "Vertebrae European Tour" in November/December 2008 also featuring STONEGARD and KRAKOW.

ENSLAVED held a listening session for "Vertebrae" at this year's Wacken Open Air festival, which took place July 31 - August 2 in Wacken, Germany.
