STEELWING: 'Zone Of Alienation' Trailer Posted Online

November 17, 2011

The official trailer for "Zone Of Alienation", the second album from Swedish metallers STEELWING, can be seen below. Due in January 2012 via NoiseArt Records, the CD was helmed by producer Rikard Lfgren, who had previously worked with DEATHSTARS, MAMAKIN, ENFORCER and VOMITORY, among others.

Commented STEELWING: "The recording sessions at Leon Music with Rikard Lfgren were a blast! Everyone worked really hard to pull it off with a tight deadline but Rikard really understood the STEELWING sound and used his ear for melodies to bring out the best in our songwriting. The results speak for themselves and the progression of the band since our debut is obvious."

According to a press release, "Zone Of Alienation" is a semi-concept album set in a not-so-distant future where the remnants of mankind have fled into outer space. Following the eradication of the Earth after religious wars have gone nuclear, they set out to find new worlds to colonize.

The "Zone Of Alienation" cover artwork was created by Dimitar Nikolov and is an eerie depiction of heavily armed space pioneers setting foot on a hostile planet.
