New AT THE GATES in Time for Halloween

by | Aug 14, 2014

At The Gates have been doing it since we we’re little kids, and now the pioneers of the Gothenburg melodic death metal scene are coming back with a new album this fall. Their first record since 1995’s Slaughter of the Soul, their forthcoming studio album is titled At War With Reality.

“It’s by far the most challenging record that we have made,” said vocalist Tomas Lindberg. The new album was recorded with Fredrik Nordström and is scheduled out just in time for Halloween.
