Here comes our Xmas present to all you friends, fans and freaks out there.

What about the new album artwork, the title of the new album and of course a teaser of the music from the new album?

This song is of course a pre-produced demo version since we have not yet recorded any new material, but it gives a hint.

So, we hope you like it and that this news keeps you warm during the cold months of the winter, for in the spring we go on the road again.

And we will see you all, under the COAT OF ARMS.
