LIGHT THIS CITY unveils 'Stormchaser' release date, tracklisting

San Francisco melodic death thrashers LIGHT THIS CITY have confirmed Nov. 11 as the release date for the band's fourth full-length album, entitled 'Stormchaser,' as well as the complete tracklisting for the 12-song effort, which will be released through Prosthetic Records. A new track, "Sand And Snow" has also been posted on the LIGHT THIS CITY MySpace page (http://www.myspace.com/lightthiscity).



LIGHT THIS CITY – STORMCHASER
1) Stormchaser
2) Fragile Heroes
3) The Anhedonia Epidemic
4) Beginning With Release
5) Firehaven
6) The Collector. Part 1: Muse
7) The Collector. Part 2: Donor
8) A Desperate Resolution
9) Wake Me At Sunset
10) Bridge To Cross
11) Sand And Snow
12) Self Portrait


"Looking back on the writing and recording of 'Stormchaser,' I have to say it couldn't have been a more amazing experience," drummer Ben Murray says. "Rehearsing every day for two months to write this record was grueling, but rewarding in the end. Working with producer Zack Ohren was awesome as usual, and he definitely got the best performances out of all of us. Having Chuck Billy do vocals was a surreal honor, and having our friend John from the Funeral Pyre contribute his vocals was also an awesome addition. Both tracks, 'Firehaven' (with Chuck) and 'Collector Part 2: Donor' (with John) came out heavy as hell thanks to those guys."

"We also hope you guys dig the artwork by none other than Necrolord [Kristian Wåhlin] himself (At the Gates, Dissection, Emperor)," Murray continues. "This time around, we wanted him to conjure up an epic image of the idea behind the record title, which we think he nailed perfectly! Thanks again to him for hammering that out for us."

The new song shows just how talented everyone is. Its great to see LTC putting forth everything they had, but its also sad because there would be BIG things for you in the future.

Kudos on the set release date, and the album art is terrific! Classic metal style and you can't beat that! It's very bitter sweet all at the same time, having seen ATG reunite, and then everyone waits in anticipation of an album from a band that many never got to see live. What a way to go out, right? Putting out what appears to be the band's finest album to date. Still for many, there will always be that hope of getting to see you again someday down the road! Hail Light This City!

I'm totally digging the artwork for the new (and swansong) album!

It's old school Lort of the Rings-ish haha. Nothing wrong with that. Just like a good Blind Guardian cover.

But not only that, you guys got Necrolord to do your artwork just like "them fellers in that there band" the Black Dahlia Murder!

Awesome!

It will be quite a Thanksgiving treat listening to Stormchaser.

Not to mention the tshirts that are sure to come. It looks like an elf or a hobbit with a viking helmet haha.

MID-EVIL (Medieval) artwork/concept albums rule!

They pulled off the Thrash and Burn tour (Abigail Williams replaced them, probably the next best thing to ask for if not LTC) and they had already spent the time, money, and effort on recording this album. With the sudden disband and pulling off of their final tours, they decided to do the very respectable thing and give us the last thing we can rightfully ask of them, which is the new CD.

As much as a tour for this album would be amazing. . .I doubt it'll happen soon.
