Crematory Announces New Album "Antiserum"

Germany's Crematory has inked a deal with Steamhammer/SPV for the release of new album "Antiserum" on February 24th, 2014.

"We're really looking forward to our collaboration with Steamhammer/SPV, a globally renowned label and expert partner in what we're planning for the future," says drummer Markus Jüllich. "Our fans can look forward to Antiserum, on which we have gone one step further than we did on our comeback album Revolution in terms of our electronic influences. In collaboration with Elmar Schmidt of Hamburg EBM act Centhron, we have come up with a haunting mix of metal riffs and EBM keyboards. That's why I'd refer to Antiserum's musical direction as 'EBM metal'."

The first single release "Shadowmaker" will be out on November 22nd, 2013. Jüllich comments: "Even before the whole record was finalized we knew that 'Shadowmaker' had absolute hit potential. You'd be hard put to announce our new album better than with this song."

On the day of the single launch, there will be another highlight: a special boxset featuring the band's first ten studio albums in a cardboard sleeve. Steamhammer A&R manager Olly Hahn states: "I am delighted that Crematory have opted for SPV. They're one of the leading bands in the gothic metal genre, and their latest album Antiserum impresses with its homogeneity and hit potential!"
