Flotsam & Jetsam has a new album and tour on the way this summer.
The band made the announcement Wednesday through a news release. According to the document, the band will release its new album, Rats in the Temple Aug. 28 via Napalm Records. In anticipation of the album’s release the band premiered the LP’s lead single, its title track, and the song’s companion video Wednesday. The album’s lead single is a strong first impression as it blends elements of power metal with its familiar thrash metal lean. Between the vocal delivery of front man K.K. Knutson and the work of his band mates, the song proves musically, a fully engaging and entertaining work.\ Knutson was brief in his discussion on the song and its lyrical background. “We’re super excited to release the first single from the album, which is very fittingly the title track, ‘Rats In The Temple’!,” said Knutson. “This song has a lot to say, and we hope the fans love the song as much as we do. This is possibly one of the most technically challenging songs FLOTSAM has ever recorded, and we look forward to delivering this song live as well!” In support of the album’s release, Flotsam & Jetsam will launch a tour in support of the record Thursday in Schonenberg, Germany at the annual Iron Fest. The tour is scheduled to run through Dec. 12 in Eindhoven, The Netherlands. The tour’s schedule is noted below along with the album’s track listing and release details.
