IN BATTLE To Tour With MARDUK

October 18, 2007

Sundsvall, Sweden-based death metallers IN BATTLE will support MARDUK on their Balkan tour in 2008, with stops in such countries as Austria, Greece and Turkey. Exact cities and dates will be announced soon.

IN BATTLE recently posted a new song, entitled "The Dead Shall See", on the band's MySpace page. The track comes off the group's fourth album, "Kingdom of Fear", which was released on September 3 via Nocturnal Art Productions/Candlelight Records. The follow-up to 2004's "Welcome to the Battlefield" was recorded at Epidemic studios in Sundsvall and was mixed by UNLEASHED's Fredrik Folkare at Chrome studios in Stockholm. The CD contains "11 songs of raw trashy death metal," according to a press release. Two video clips for the album have been filmed: "Kingdom of Fear" and "The Dead Shall See".

IN BATTLE's new album honors the memory of the group's former drummer, Otto Wiklund, who passed away in August 2006. Wiklund appeared on IN BATTLE's first two albums — "Lost in the Shadows Gray" (1997) and "The Rage of the Northmen" (1998) — and was also the session drummer for SETHERIAL, with whom he recorded the "Lords of the Nightrealm" album (1997).

IN BATTLE's 2004 CD, "Welcome to the Battlefield" (Cold/Metal Blade Records),was recorded at Courthouse Studio in Östersund, Sweden and at Necromorbus Studio in Stockholm, Sweden. The CD was mixed and mastered at Erik Rutan's (HATE ETERNAL/ex-MORBID ANGEL guitarist) Mana Recording Studios in Tampa, Florida with engineer Shawn Ohtani. Rutan also laid down a guest solo on the album.
