German gothic metal institution Schwarzer Engel around mastermind Dave Jason has recently announced a new EP entitled 100 Jahre. The EP will be released on 26 April and will be released for the first time via the band's newly founded label Krähenzeit Records.
Simultaneously with the announcement of the EP, the band already shows the cover artwork, which was created by artist friend Matthias Löwenstein of SeasonZero (ASP, Project Pitchfork, Caliban,...).
Dave Jason from Schwarzer Engel comments: "It's been a long time coming and a lot of work has taken place behind the scenes. Now we're lifting the veil and are excited to deliver new fodder for the crows (fans of the band)! The EP offers a taste of the upcoming album and contains the title track, two other brand new tracks and an instrumental version."
For now, the band only unveiled the release date and front cover artwork, but more news and music is coming soon. Stay tuned. Link
