You can now pre-order Poisonblack’s upcoming album “A Dead Heavy Day” at the Northern Tribe website. The album will be released 27 August in Finland (a few days earlier than the rest of Europe, so pre-order it now and get it early!).

Also, Poisonblack’s Official Myspace has the new video for the first single “Bear the Cross”. Its definitely a huge change from the last two albums, but still very good, so go and watch!

I’m combining these bits of news into one post, because I don’t feel like posting two. Both Poisonblack, and Charon have posted new songs on their Myspace pages! The new Poisonblack song, Hatelove, is on their Myspace Frontpage and will be on their upcoming album “A Dead Heavy Day”, to be release 1 Sept in Europe (no news on other release dates yet).

Charon’s new song, “End of the World”, has been posted as a live video from Myötätuulirock Festival in their blog
(No info on an album release date yet )
Both songs sound awesome, so enjoy!

You can now listen to Left Behind, the first new song off Poisonblack’s upcoming album, A Dead Heavy Day, on their Official Myspace page. Looks like the album is set to be released on 1 September in Europe, and if the first song is any indication, the new album sounds a lot more like Sentenced than either of their previous albums did. Check back here for the US releases date, and more information as soon as it is available.
