Published: November 26, 2014
"Salvation", the new video from Swedish metallers
ENGEL, can be seen below. The song is taken from the band's fourth album,
"Raven Kings", which will be released on November 28 via
Gain Music Entertainment. The CD was produced by the band's founders
Marcus Sunesson and
Niclas Engelin (also of
IN FLAMES) and was mixed by
Jacob Hansen (
VOLBEAT). The artwork was created by
Joachim Luetke (
ARCH ENEMY,
DIMMU BORGIR,

Commented
Sunesson on the video: "The ground crumbles, the skies darken and the hills shake as the last music on earth is heard from a mountain top. Four dark figures, still standing. Sounds that paint a fitting masterpiece to accompany the elemental chaos. There is no Sanctuary from the apocalypse, no Salvation. And yet, that is precisely what they offer. Speaking not of good or evil, instead they offer stark reality."
Singer
Mikael Sehlin made his live debut with
ENGEL in January 2013 at the
Gothenburg Sound Festival at Trädgårn in Gothenburg, Sweden.
ENGEL parted ways with singer
Magnus "Mangan" Klavborn in November 2012 and recruited
Lenne (ex-
TWELVESTEP) as his temporary replacement. In a statement announcing his departure from the group,
Klavborn said: "I'm not going to rant about the who's and why's, just say goodbye." He added: "I have had a lot of good times and I am sad to leave it behind, but that's how it goes sometimes."
Klavborn has since joined reunited Swedish metallers
