Vola announce new album 'Friend of a Phantom', share new single "Break My Lying Tongue"

Danish/Swedish progressive metal act, Vola, have announced their new studio album Friend of a Phantom, which will be released via Mascot Records on November 1. In celebration of today's announcement, the quartet has revealed the official video for their new song, "Break My Lying Tongue."

Pre-order Friend of a Phantom here.

Drummer Adam Janzi shred the following:

We have had the time to internalise 'Witness' and let its aftermath sink in, which has shaped how we approached 'Friend Of A Phantom'. Our personal tastes have changed, the way we approach our instruments and songwriting has changed, our lives have changed, time has passed, and adventures have been had. Whatever piece of melancholy that 'Witness' had, has just grown and become a central part of this new album. I feel that VOLA has grown and reached a new moment in its life, maturing.
