WINTERSUN - North American Release Date For New Album Confirmed

Nuclear Blast has confirmed an October 23rd North American release date for WINTERSUN's new album, Time I. Earlier today it was announced that the European release has been brought forward to October 12th and the band will do two special album release shows in their native Finland. The first show will be at Lutakko in Jyväskylä on October 12th and the second one at Nosturi in Helsinki on October 13th. The support acts will be THAUROROD (Lutakko and Nosturi) and MEDICATEDS (Nosturi).
 

The band comments: "We're excited to start the Time World Tour from our home country with two shows in October! These two special album release shows will be our first club gigs in Finland since 2006 and the first time ever Time I songs will be heard live! The show attendees will also be the first ones to have a chance to get a signed copy of the new album. During the rest of the summer we'll be rehearsing the new material and working on a new enhanced live show as well as doing some promo and preparing bonus material for the album. Right after the Finnish gigs we'll continue on to Heidenfest tour in Central Europe and after that... Well, more shows will be announced soon. Stay tuned and hope to see you at the gigs!"
