Amaranthe confirm debut album release with Spinefarm Records

Amaranthe is the Swedish/Danish power/melodic death metal band formed by Jake E. Lundberg & Olof Morck; however, it was when singers Elize Ryd & Andy Solvestrom entered the picture, followed by drummer Morten Lowe, that things truly started to take shape.

Originally called Avalanche, the band first came to public attention via a four-song demo (2008)… and now that demo has developed into a debut album – called simply ‘Amaranthe’, produced by Jacob Hansen and due for release on April 13th via Spinefarm Records, preceded by the single/video ‘Hunger’.

To support the release of the album, Amaranthe will be Special Guesting with Kamelot on two UK dates in April. Of course, Swedish vocalist Elize is no stranger to Kamelot’s music, having performed live with the band throughout 2010…

The April dates are:-

27th Sheffield, Corporation
28th London, KoKo
