Lacuna Coil will be releasing their seventh studio album, Broken Crown Halo, in North America on April 1, 2014. The album will be released on March 31 in Europe, Australia and New Zealand.
The band will soon take part in the REVOLVER HOTTEST CHICKS IN HARD ROCK TOUR tour, which starts on February 20th in Wilmington, NC and ends on March 20th in Anaheim, CA. The line up also includes Sick Puppies, Eyes Set To Kill and Cilver.
Lacuna Coil talking Broken Crown Halo:
“What conflict could run so deep that it takes you to the deepest corners of your inner world? Today we are surrounded by a lot of lies, aliases, and people acting like they are wearing an invisible crown – but you better have thick skin if you want to wear this crown! ‘BROKEN CROWN HALO’ is a cinematic album that could be the soundtrack of our days – it is a dark vision of a near future when survival is second nature, and failure is not something to be avoided, but rather cultivated with lessons learned along the way.
We set the bar pretty high with ‘Dark Adrenaline’ and it hasn’t been easy bringing our sound to the next level, but we have lived, learned and grown through a year full of personal issues and changes. We learned to be strong and get stronger, and we felt an inner vibe in this band that we haven’t felt before. We locked ourselves in an age-old studio in Milan, Italy, where history was strong and the past met with our future, vintage gear and the influence of classic Italian horror movies and bands like Goblin meeting the fresh and rough sounds of the modern world with unique and invigorating results. ‘BROKEN CROWN HALO’ is Lacuna Coil introducing a new order, and letting nothing stand in our way…”
The band recorded the album in their homeland Italy with producer Jay Baumgardner [P.O.D., Sevendust, Evanescence] and engineer Kyle Hoffmann [P.O.D., Bush, Zebrahead]. The album was mastered by Howie Weinberg, whose credits include Rammstein, Soundgarden, Nirvana and Sheryl Crow.
