Swedish hard rockers The Quill’s long out-of-print and much sought-after 2006 studio album In Triumph is due for rerelease on 18th April through Metalville Records – The new version will also contain an unreleased bonus track from the recording sessions at the time.
Ahead of the album’s return comes their latest single, ‘Rock ‘N’ Roll Might Be Dead’ an unreleased gem from the 2006 sessions – it’s raw, loud, and pure The Quill. Crank it up!
The album itself was was recorded in collaboration with producer Tommy Newton (UFO, Helloween) at Area 51 Studios in Celle, near Hanover, Germany. Various concerts followed, with the band headlining a short European tour, as well as a series of European festivals, culminating in another appearance at Sweden Rock.
With Christian Carlsson on guitar and Jolle Atlagic on drums, the album was the first to feature Robert Triches on bass (who replaced Roger Nielsson until 2012) and the last to feature singer Magnus Ekwall, until his returned in 2017.
Tracks features on the album are: ‘Keep The Circle Whole’, ‘Yeah’, ‘Slave Master’, ‘Broken Man’, ‘Man In Mind’, ‘Merciless Room’, ‘Trespass’, ‘Black’, ‘No Light On The Dark Side’, ‘Triumph Is a Sea Of Flames’, ‘In The Shadows’, ‘Down’ and on CD and digitally, the bonus track, ‘Rock ‘N’ Roll Might Be Dead’.
The Quill‘s previous singles were ‘Broken Man’ and the mystical, hypnotic, and relentless, ‘Keep The Circle Whole’ that channeled the band’s signature heavy groove with spellbinding intensity. Pulsating riffs and commanding vocals weave a tale of power, control, and destiny. This track stands tall as a testament to the bands ability to fuse doom-laden blues with unstoppable rock energy.
