October Tide - To Begin Recording New Album


Good news for death/doom metal fans as Swedish doomsters October Tide are currently working on a new album. Mastermind Fredrik Norrman reports that the band has been writing songs for their sixth studio album, follow-up to Winged Waltz from 2016, and has booked a studio for the end of November, to start the recording process.

Norrman commented: "We haven't made much noise about this so far, but we have written a bunch of songs lately. In fact, we have almost a whole album more or less finished."

The plans are to have the album - whose mixing and mastering duties will be handled by Karl Daniel Liden (Bloodbath, Katatonia, Cult Of Luna) - completed by late January, and released on Agonia Records in spring 2019.

Upcoming shows:

17 Nov - Bucharest - Metal Gates Festival, ROM
01 Dec - Vantaa - December Doom, FIN
07 Dec - Gothenburg - Sticky Fingers, SWE

Shortly before the recording sessions, the band will travel south to Bucharest (Romania), where they'll perform at the Metal Gates Festival with Rotting Christ, Shining and Draconian. Whilst recording the album, they'll play a show at December Doom Festival in Vantaa (Finland), with plans to do a special setlist from their debut release, Rain Without End.
