Swedish modern/horror metal frontrunners Mister Misery have shared the details of their third album and another single/video, "Survival Of The Sickest". Perfect in time for their performance at Wacken Open Air, their self-titled new offering will come out on 2 August through AFM Records; the pre-sale has just started.
In support of its upcoming album, Mister Misery has recently announced a headlining tour for October 2024. Make sure to catch them live on The Dark Legacy Tour 2024!
Mister Misery's singer and guitarist Harley Vendetta reveals: "'Survival Of The Sickest' is a song written in the hospital room when I was sick, my life was in danger with very low chances of full recovery. It's the story of exactly what I went through in that room and how it shaped me to look at life in a different way. The track is also used as a support pillar in difficult times. It's truly made from the heart and we hope it reaches those out there who need it".
Blending clean and gritty vocals along high-voltage riffs and anthemic choruses, Mister Misery has developed a unique sound and style, one that captures the essence of all the sub-genres in modern heavy music. Since forming in 2018, Mister Misery has released two critically acclaimed albums (Unalive and A Brighter Side Of Death) and several highly praised and top-playlisted singles. Paired with an obscene and theatrical appearance, they create an experience that speaks to all senses. Mister Misery has become a force that crushes stages at the biggest festivals, such as Wacken Open Air, Master of Rock, Full Metal Cruise, and Hills Of Rock, to name just a few.
Mister Misery's forthcoming self-titled album was produced by the band at Unalive Studio; the cover art was designed by Stefan "GraveArt" Röhm.
The band comments: "Dear ghosts, the time has finally come! We are immensely proud to announce our third and new self-titled album, set to be released on the 2nd of August 2024, just in time for Wacken Open Air! We can't thank you enough for all the love and support you've shown us up until this point and we can't wait to create so many new memories together with this new album! We love you all! 🖤 /Harley, Alex, Rizzy & Alister". Link
