Katatonia‘s new album has been christened “City Burials” and will meet an April 24th release on Peaceville Records. The song “Lacquer” has been chosen as the first single and is available to stream below. Pre-orders for the record will launch here tomorrow (January 31st) morning.
Guitarist/vocalist Anders Nyström commented of the outing:
“In days and nights of black and silver, the dead end king will come. From pieces of broken mirrors there will be a crown bestowed upon his head. In reflections of shattered glass not only the seasons will turn, but also the change disguised by the lapse of time. His mind will have to come to bear the weight of everything that was left behind and forgotten. Archiving the inaccessible. Celebrating the abandoned and mourning the destroyed. The city burials.”
