Not so! The Sheffield metallers are already writing material for their third album and have lined-up uber producer Fredrik Nordstrom (Dimmu Borgir, Arch Enemy, At The Gates) to produce the as-yet-untitled effort.
“It’s been one hell of a year, non-stop for us really; our second album, Suicide Season, has taken us further than we ever thought was possible,” said frontman Oli Sykes. “I think we found our unique sound with that album and the next is going to be using Suicide Season as a base, but pushing it further in every single way imaginable. It’s happening with Fredrik Nordström again, since he made us sound so amazing last time.”
Expect the album to surface next summer.
