Florida metallers Trivium will launch their upcoming new album Shogun with a FREE mp3 of the opening track Kirisute Gomen tomorrow (Thursday 31st July).
The track will be downloadable from all Roadrunner and Trivium websites for 24 hours only, from 5am tomorrow morning.
The unusual song title refers to the execution privileges of a Japanese Samurai warrior.
On August 11th, fans will have the chance to hear another new song when Into The Mouth Of Hell We March is released digitally.
And to further confuse you, the first single from the hotly anticipated new album will be Down From The Sky, due for digital release on September 1st, which the band shot a video for at home in Florida last week with director Ramon Bousiveth.
Shogun, mixed by Colin Richardson and produced by Nick Raskuelinecz, will follow on September 29th. The full tracklisting will be:
1. Kirisute Gomen
2. Torn Between Scylla And Charybdis
