Black Trip Releasing New Album "Shadowline"

Black Trip back and on a mission - after first all-killer-no-filler album "Goin' Under" released in 2014 (2013 in Scandinavia), now the band is about to release second album "Shadowline," which vocalist Joseph Tholl describes as "a bigger, more diverse and more personal album, but still dark, heavy metal rock."

Guitarist Peter Stjärnvind adds, "the album whilst heavy is also groovy and catchy and just makes you feel happy in a really good way."

Joseph Tholl continues, "When 'Goin' Under' was being shaped it was basically just me and Peter. But during that time we got offered gigs here in Sweden before we even had a band, so very quickly we had to get the other guys on board so we could play these gigs and record the album. Me and Jonas (Wikstrand - Drums) didn't know the other guys that well so we've all been on this journey, getting to know each other and growing together as a band. We all love heavy metal, that's the common bond that binds us, but we all have our different tastes and different musical backgrounds because me and Jonas are from a different musical generation than Peter, Sebastian and Johan.

"With the writing and recording of Shadowline we have grown together and it really feels like we have become a band now. We've influenced each other and we've begun to understand what our potential is, what we can do and what we can't do. Every band member has contributed in one way or another to the shaping of this album and following on from what we did on Goin' Under this was a very natural step for us. With the first album we were establishing the foundations of our sound, now with Shadowline we have started to build the framework of the band."

The "Shadowline" album was recorded and mixed by Nicke Andersson (Entombed, Hellacopters, Imperial State Electric) at his studio The Honk Palace in February/March 2015. Due out September 4th through SPV/Steamhammer, the track listing is as follows:
