The progressive Swedes close to our heart have posted a studio update, and it looks as though this new album we’ve been hearing so much about is going to be a reality!

We’ll leave it to the lads to explain what’s going on in their lives at the moment:

“And so it’s finally 2016! Welcome to this brand new Pain Of Salvation year (which I have decided to name ‘Garbo’). We have intentionally been a bit restrictive with feeding you intel on our plans as of lately, but as a late Christmas gift, let us pull you into our secretly very busy world: Ok, so the lid finally comes off – we are actually in the studio right now, almost two weeks into the full-blown recording of our brand new album. And not in just any studio, with just any producer. We are in the Dugout studio with awesome producer Daniel Bergstrand (Meshuggah, In Flames etc), who was our hand picked top choice for recording this album, and was equally thrilled about getting a chance to work with us. We will keep posting thoughts, pictures and updates on this during the coming weeks, to keep you in the loop. You are, after all, our beloved extended family.

“And hey, as if that’s not enough, we just recently joined forces with Glassville Music for management and booking, and we are planning for at least two releases this year, and some nice touring (yes, we know you want us to ‘come to Brazil!’. ‘Garbo’ is here, my friends – and it seems like she might just be the most exciting year ever. Love and respect, Daniel.”

Not one, but two Pain of Salvation releases this year?!

Score.
