SWORN 'Making A Lot Of Progress' On Third Album

September 13, 2010

Norwegian extreme metallers SWORN have issued the following update:

"Regarding our third album, we're making a lot of progress. The songwriting is pretty much finished, same goes for lyrics. Also the album title is set, but we will not reveal it at this point — so stay tuned for that!

"Some words about the material so far: Earlier there's been a mix between very melodic/atmospheric tracks and straight forward almost thrash-like tracks on our albums. We do this because we have a passion for both styles, and love to incorporate them into the SWORN sound.

"What we've done on this third album is to make each song represent our sound alot more, with both melodic and hard-hitting parts, while still being unique in themselves. This defines us a lot more, and the pre-productions so far sound killer, to say the least."

Working songtitles set to appear on the next SWORN CD:

* The Silver Asylum
* Corridors of Dark Salvation
* The Keeper
* Mot Stupet (Norwegian lyrics)

SWORN's sophomore album, "Bastards And Conquerors", was released on October 30, 2009 via Twilight-Vertrieb.

According to a press release, "Bastards And Conquerors" sees SWORN bringing "the expression 'melodic extreme metal' to a level beyond your imagination. Nine tracks of melancholic metal, mixed with powerful rhythms and aggressive instrumental abuse. All enclosed with that haunting atmosphere you can expect from SWORN. . . [It was] mastered at Cutting Room (IN FLAMES, DIMMU BORGIR, WITHIN TEMPTATION) and mixed by Bjørnar E. Nilsen (VULTURE INDUSTRIES, BLACK HOLE GENERATOR),who also has a guest appearance on the album."
