Swedish rockers
Violent Divine will release their new album,
"In Harm's Way", on January 31, 2009 via
Misty Recordings. The Cd was mixed and produced by
Pontus Norgren, guitarist of Swedish metal act
Hammerfall. It was a natural choice to work together with a highly acclaimed sound engineer and musician like
Pontus Norgren, with his extensive experience both live and studio with bands like
Europe and
Yngwie Malmsteen.
Violent Divine and
Pontus Norgren share a lot of musical influences like
Ozzy Osbourne,
M�tley Cr�e and
Accept, to name just a few.
According to a press release,
"In Harm's Way" is "a massive hard rock album, mixing heavy metal, glam and classic hard rock, featuring 12 strong tracks in the true spirit of
Violent Divine."
A single and video,
"Blackheart", will precede the album release on January 8, 2009.
