GOD DETHRONED Release Tenth Studio Album ‘The World Ablaze’
May 5th, 2017

Dutch blackened death metal band God Dethroned issued tenth full-length studio album The World Ablaze on May 5th, 2017 through Metal Blade Records.

The outing can be streamed in its entirety via YouTube below.

The band issued the following statement: “The World Ablaze is our final album in the World War I trilogy. We aimed to create an album that is very dynamic and diverse. It contains typical God Dethroned riffing with loads of melodies and catchy hooks. The songs are perfect for our live shows as they contain many mid-tempo parts combined with faster and more brutal parts. Diversity to the max!

“Dan Swanö mixed the album in his typical fashion but without robbing the band of its own identity. Mastering was handled at the Wisseloord Studios where they also mastered albums for bands like Rammstein, among many others, and they put the icing on the cake. The album sounds crystal clear and heavy as fuck at the same time.”

The track listing is as follows:

01. ‘A Call To Arms’
02. ‘Annihilation Crusade’
03. ‘The World Ablaze’
04. ‘On The Wrong Side Of The Wire’
05. ‘Close To Victory’
06. ‘Konigsberg’
07. ‘Escape Across The Ice (The White Army)’
08. ‘Breathing Through Blood’
09. ‘Messina Ridge’
10. ‘The 11th Hour’

God Dethroned’s line-up was as follows:

Henri Sattler (vocals and guitar)
Mike Ferguson (guitar)
Jeroen Pomper (bass)
Michiel van der Plicht (drums)

Music videos were filmed for the title track and the songs ‘On The Wrong Side Of The Wire’ and ‘Annihilation Crusade’. All three clips can be viewed below.
