THE HAUNTED, BULLET Confirmed For LINKÖPING METAL MASSACRE 4

October 10, 2009

THE HAUNTED, BULLET and ALGAION have been confirmed for the Linköping Metal Massacre 4, set to take place Saturday, March 6, 2010 at Konsert & Kongress in Linköping, Sweden.

THE HAUNTED frontman Peter Dolving recently told the German edition of the Metal Hammer magazine that the band has commenced the songwriting process for a new album. "Looking at the ideas that we're coming up with, looking at the stuff that we're doodling around with, it's gonna be a very heavy and it's gonna be a very strange record," he said. "It's gonna be like a continuation of what we started experimenting with both on 'rEVOLVEr' [2004] and on 'The Dead Eye' [2006], so it'll be eclectic and hard. 'Cause around the time of 'The Dead Eye', we felt that we really needed to do something that we hadn't done that we really wanted to do, and we got a lot of critique for it; a lot of people didn't like it. We loved it, and the songs that we're playing off that record are going over really well with the audience and we're really enjoying to play them. So we figure, why the fuck shouldn't we play and continue to try and evolve as musicians and songwriters?! And that's what we'll do."

THE HAUNTED is continuing to tour in support of its latest album, "Versus", which entered the Swedish chart at position No. 14 and the Finnish chart at No. 12.The CD was recorded in part at PUK studio in Denmark with producer Tue Madsen (HEAVEN SHALL BURN, DARK TRANQUILLITY, MOONSPELL, etc),who previously worked with the group on its two previous LPs, "rEVOLVEr" and "The Dead Eye".

BULLET was invited to perform in front of 14,000 crazy hockey fanatics at the Ericsson Globe Arena on Saturday, October 3, kicking of a historic evening where Detroit Red Wings squared off against St. Louis Blues in the NHL premiere game of the 2009-2010 season.

BULLET's sophomore album, "Bite the Bullet", entered the chart in the band's home country at position No. 3. The follow-up to 2006's "Heading for the Top" was mixed and co-produced by Nicke Andersson (THE HELLACOPTERS, SOLUTION, DEATH BREATH).
