At the Gates Preview Tomas Lindberg's Final Album with "The Dissonant Void"

Stream the second single from the forthcoming full length, The Ghost of a Future Dead, arriving later this month via Century Media Records. 

Melodic death legends At The Gates are due to release the final recorded album with beloved vocalist and heavy music champion, Tomas Lindberg on April 24th in The Ghost of a Future Dead. The Century Media release serves as the band's final and arguably most poignant achievement, preserving Lindberg's last performances before his tragic passing from cancer just last year. 

Following the initial single with the reveal of the bombastic "The Fever Mask," the Swedish legends have submitted a bulldozing second single with "The Dissonant Void," - a powerful reassertion of At the Gates signature meld of melodeath and menacing fury. 

The band shared of the single, "We are proud to unveil the second track from 'The Ghost of a Future Dead': 'The Dissonant Void'. Originally considered to be the title track – it's a powerful, melodic and to the point track with the classic At The Gates style sound."

 

Along with the release of the single, "The Dissonant Void" also serves as the first glimpse of the expansive multimedia art presentation that added to the scope of  The Ghost of a Future Dead. Featuring painting, filming, editing and production by artist Costin Chioreanu, the depth and narrative of the album is one that combines visual art with the band's timeless, melodic death metal soundtrack. 

"'The Dissonant Void' is the peak of the iceberg, as a whole visual universe got born out of the void written so masterfully in lyrics by Tomas and expressed magically by the band through their unique heavy metal approach. This video, together with the whole 'The Ghost of a Future Dead' movie, represent my ultimate homage to the genius which will forever remain as Tomas Lindberg. It was a colossal task to express visually the depth and the darkness of these lyrics and music for an entire album, which also is most probably the darkest record I ever worked for."

The Ghost of a Future Dead, the final album to feature frontman Tomas Lindberg with At the Gates arrives April 24th via Century Media Records. Order the release - HERE
