Amaranthe Begins Album Recording with New Single
Amaranthe has begun recording its upcoming album, with vocalist Elize Ryd confirming a drum session scheduled for two-and-a-half weeks ahead. The session will be conducted with producer Jacob Hansen. The band plans to follow the drum recordings with instrumentation and vocal recording, indicating a traditional approach to album production.
This will be the second album featuring Mikael Sehlin on growls, marking three years since the release of The Catalyst. Ryd described the new album as drawing on the roots of Gothenburg metal, emphasizing the return to classic riffs that define the scene. The band released a non-album single titled "Chaos Theory" in 2026, with an official video available for streaming.
The single is the band's first release of the year. No release date has been announced for the new album. The band has not confirmed a full tour schedule, though it will participate in the annual Christmas event Raskasta Joulua.
Crimson Glory, a separate artist, is noted as having a Spotify presence, with fans able to receive notifications when its new album is released. This announcement does not include details about any tour dates or supporting acts.
