Epic post metallers SVALBARD unleash their rip-roaring and gut-punching new album When I Die, Will I Get Better?

September 24, 2020
1 min read

One week away from our recent insightful feature HERE, Bristol post-metal trio SVALBARD have unleashed their rip-roaring and gut-punching new full length, When I Die, Will I Get Better? today, ahead of it’s Friday, September 25th release, at Metal Injection alongside an extensive, tell-all interview with the band.

In the third full-length offering from SVALBARD, the band reveals eight new tracks of highly emotive anthems for the ages – proving it to be a landmark of 2020. Exploring themes of personal and societal highs and lows, mental illness, anguish, and self-reflection – the myriad of twists and turns spark triumph and despair alongside tortured riffs and heart-pounding, explosive songwriting.

Already receiving massive praise from the likes of Decibel Magazine, Kerrang!, Revolver Magazine, Metal Injection, Stereogum, and more, When I Die, Will I Be Better? will be available worldwide on all formats on September 25, 2020, via Translation Loss Records, in Europe via Church Road Records, and in Japan via Tokyo Jupiter Records.

Album artwork, track listing, and album details can be found below.
