The press release from the band's record company posted on the band's Myspace - http://www.myspace.com/diabloswingorchestra.

________________________________________________________

Here's the cover art for the upcoming Diablo Swing Orchestra album
"Sing-Along Songs For the Damned and Delirious", out in Europe on the
21st September. It was made by the acclaimed Swedish illustrator Peter
Bergting, most notable for his work with the graphic novel Gängkrig which is a #1 bestseller in Sweden right now.







The album will come in two editions for the stores. The "normal"
edition will be a 4-panel digipac containing the CD and a 12 page
booklet and a "special" edition, limited to just 2000 copies, in a
gorgeous 8 panel digipac containing the CD, a 12 page booklet and a
Bonus DVD featuring all sorts of goodies like live footage, behind the
scenes, photo albums and whatever else can be crammed in!



A "very special" edition will be available directly from Ascendance by
mail order only, with an individually numbered band logo Dog Tag
pendant, a set of postcards and a vinyl sticker included with the
CD/DVD version. This will be stricly limited to 300 copies and details
for pre-order will be on the Ascendance Myspace soon (http://www.myspace.com/ascendancerecords).



Having now heard the full album we can assure you that old fans of the
band will not be disappointed at all. It's got all the elements that
made "The Butcher's Ballroom" such a success, but they've also built on
those themes and taken the sound to new and uncharted territory. In
short: You're going to love it!



As previously announced the band will be playing a launch party show in
London on October 2nd at the Purple Turtle, Camden. The venue has a
limited capacity and tickets are selling fast! I know it seems a long
time away but I suggest you get your tickets sooner rather than later
to avoid potential disappointment.



Tickets are available in advance from Seetickets . Alternatively you can avoid postage costs and booking fees by buying directly from us at http://ascendancerecords.com/site/ordering-albums . We won't be issuing physical tickets, but we'll keep your name(s) at the door for when you arrive.

Excellent!
 
Been wondering if they had put out another album. Looking forward to it.
 
Thanks for the news.
Dig me...But don't...Bury me
I'm running still, I shall until, one day, I hope that I'll arrive

Cant wait.

London's a bit of a trek for me but that would make one hell of a 24th birthday!
Spending more than I should on Prog since 2005

A band I discovered a little time ago. Great songs and so much talent inside their songs.

The cover for their next one is...fantastical! I love comics, and that painting is excellent.
 
Sure it will be a great album. I want to have it already now in my hands.

Butcher's Ballroom was great at first but wore on me pretty quickly. Hopefully this one will have some lasting power.

Yep I fully agree that the first impression didn´t last. I will check out the new one when it´s released though.
