Spanish Thrash Metallers Angelus Apatrida return to the spotlight with a new studio album entitled Cabaret de la Guillotine, set for worldwide release via Century Media Records on 04 May 2018.
Following up 2015’s acclaimed Hidden Evolution, which entered the charts in Spain at #2, this sixth studio album showcases the wide Heavy Metal range of Angelus Apartrida , from neck-breaking Thrash, to truly melodic and yet powerful Metal, acting as the group’s most diverse effort to date.
Check out the dynamic album-opener and first digital single Sharpen The Guillotine here:
In regards to Sharpen The Guillotine, Angelus Apatrida say: ‘The song resumes the actual political situation of Spain. While I am writing this, a rapper singer is going to spend 3 years and 6 months in jail because of their lyrics. Spain is a dangerous place now. Freedom of speech? Yes, but only for the rich.’
Mixed and mastered by the longtime sonic partner Daniel Cardoso (Anathema, Anneke van Giersbergen) and with artwork by Gyula Havancsák (Destruction, Annihilator), the tracklisting of the album reads as follows:
Angelus Apatrida – Cabaret de la Guillotine
