The album was produced by Brendan O'Brien, who also worked with them on Crack the Skye. The lead single, "Sultan's Curse" is expected to surface tomorrow, January 27th. And, the album art has also been revealed:
We'll be sitting here waiting for the new single, and as soon as it's posted, you bet your ass we'll let you know about it. The band have been posting teasers about the new album all week.
