MEMORIES OF A DEAD MAN: 'V.I.T.R.I.O.L.' Teaser Available

May 8, 2012

France's MEMORIES OF A DEAD MAN has released a visual teaser for its second full-length album, "V.I.T.R.I.O.L.", which came out on April 20 through Klonosphere/Season of Mist.

Produced in France by Etienne Sarthou and mastered in Sweden by Lindberg Magnus (CULT OF LUNA, POISON THE WELL, AUGUST BURNS RED),"V.I.T.R.I.O.L." features "11 new themes that characterize MEMORIES OF A DEAD MAN's engaging ability to switch between the intimate and the powerful with ease," according to a press release.

Much like last year's "Maze" EP, "V.I.T.R.I.O.L." "displays an ambitious blend of sounds and moods, fusing the hypnotically pulverising riffs of post-metal artists like THE OCEAN, CULT OF LUNA and ROSETTA with the burning, full-hearted intensity of hardcore acts like ENVY, and occasionally veering off into dreamy and ethereal ambiences that transport listeners into outer space." The cover art was designed by Hicham Haddaji and can be seen below.

"V.I.T.R.I.O.L." track listing:

01. Tomorrow at Dawn
02. On the Heights of Despair
03. Under the Cross
04. Meshi'ha
05. Good Mourning Child
06. Insomniac Animal
07. An Ode to Myself
08. Trismegistus King
09. Leave Scars
