Japanese release was scheduled for April 25th via Spiritual Beast (with the CD featuring two bonus tracks), while South American issue was handled by Hellion Records.<\/p>\n

Guitarist Ken Johnson commented: \u201cWe\u2019re all really excited in the band about the release of the new Blitzkrieg album especially after how well the Reign Of Fire<\/em> EP turned out to close out last year. The reviews and response to that has been very good. This will be the bands first recorded new material since 2013! We all hope everyone enjoys listening to the new material as much as we enjoyed the production and recording of \u2018Judge Not!\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n

Recording sessions for the outing commenced on October 16th, 2017 with Phil Davies at Downcast Base HQ Recording Studios in Newcastle Upon Tyne. Mixing was handled by Jonas Haagesen at Hansen Studios in Ribe, Denmark.<\/p>\n
