German thrash metal outfit Perzonal War, featuring Matthias Zimmer (vocals), Andreas Ballnus (guitar), Björn Kluth (bass), and Martin Buchwalter (drums), will release their new studio album, The Last Sunset, on June 23rd via Metalville Records in North America. The album will be available in Europe on May 29th.
Self-produced at Gernhart Studio located in Troisdorf, Germany with drummer Martin Buchwalter at the controls [Buchwalter’s credits include working with and recording albums for Destruction, Suidakra, Tankard], The Last Sunset is the most versatile album of the band’s career. Beneath well known Perzonal War hooks and riffs, for which the band have been highly praised by the press, fans can expect the band exploring new sounds as well.
“When compared to previous Perzonal War releases The last Sunset goes a bit back to the roots”, says vocalist Matthias Zimmer. “We set out to create a good balance of heavy riffing and great melodies and took a more straight to the face approach rather than a technical one.”
Albums such as Different But The Same (2002) and Faces (2004) put the group on the map and displayed the big influence that influential band’s like Metallica had on the Perzonal War sound. Perzonal War have found their own ultimate mixture of staying true to their roots but still evolve and walk through life without blinders, and their fresh, modern style befit fans of In Flames, Soilwork, and Mercenary.
