Swedish gothic metal maestros TRIBULATION is pleased to reveal that their sixth studio album, ‘Sub Rosa in Æternum,’ is due on November 1, 2024 via Century Media Records, following up the band’s award-winning 2021 album, ‘Where the Gloom Becomes Sound.’ In celebration, the band is now unveiling the second single from the offering, “Tainted Skies,” along with a lyric video. The clip was created by Costin Chioreanu at Twilight13media and can be found at THIS LOCATION.

Guitarist Adam Zaars comments, “The old and the new. ‘Tainted Skies’ is a fairly straight forward Tribulation song written by Joseph [Tholl]. He gives the whole sound his own spin and takes us through murky depths and shadowy skies, from death to new life.”

On ‘Sub Rosa in Æternum,’ Tribulation conjure new beast: Part psychological horror of Italian cinema, part gaunt British goth, and part Art Deco opulence, ‘Sub Rosa In Æternum’ is a blazing torch upon a cloudy, skeleton sky. Stay tuned for more info! In addition, TRIBULATION will be supporting legendary progressive metal pioneers Opeth on their upcoming North America tour, which will kick off on October 11 in Milwaukee, WI and conclude on Halloween night in San Francisco, CA. this October 2024 with their last show on Halloween in San Francisco.
