Hard rock titans Metal Church have announced the track listing and unveiled the cover artwork for their latest album XI, due for release on March 25th via Nuclear Blast. The band’s 11th studio release also marks the return of legendary vocalist and front man Mike Howe.
You can now pre-order the XI Limited Edition 2LP Red Vinyl and CD/T-Shirt Bundle.
XI was produced by Kurdt Vanderhoof and co-produced by Chris “The Wizard” Collier.
From the first guitar riff of album opener “Reset” through the driving outro of album closer “Suffer Fools”, it is clear that Metal Church is back and better than ever. “Needle and Suture” and “Soul Eating Machine” showcase the song writing that made the early Mike Howe albums The Human Factor, Blessing In Disguise and Hanging In The Balance such fan favourites. Musical opuses “Signal Path” and “Sky Falls In” clock in at over 7-minutes each and put the musicianship that Metal Church was known for on full display in 2016.
The track listing for XI is:
1. Reset
2. Killing Your Time
3. No Tomorrow
4. Signal Path
5. Sky Falls In
6. Needle & Suture
7. Shadow
8. Blow Your Mind
9. Soul Eating Machine
10. It Waits
11. Suffer Fools
