Swedish gothic metal maestros TRIBULATION is pleased to reveal that pre-orders are now live for their sixth studio album, ‘Sub Rosa in Æternum,’ is due on November 1, 2024 via Century Media Records, which follows up the band’s award-winning 2021 album, ‘Where the Gloom Becomes Sound.’ In celebration, the band is now unveiling the third single from the offering, “Hungry Waters”.
Tribulation’s “Hungry Waters” is a mesmerizing exploration of the depths of desire, the pull of oblivion, and the relentless hunger that drives humans forward. This song captures the haunting tension between yearning and surrender and the lyrics weave a dark and immersive narrative, and paint the powerful imagery of drifting through endless, treacherous seas.
Guitarist Adam Zaars comments, “‘Hungry Waters‘ takes us yet further down this untrodden path we’ve entered and is something we’ve simply never done before. For me, it’s one of the highlights of the upcoming album with its mix of melancholy and fervour and its intricate musicality. Can you handle it? I think you can.”
On ‘Sub Rosa in Æternum,’ Tribulation conjure new beast: Part psychological horror of Italian cinema, part gaunt British goth, and part Art Deco opulence, ‘Sub Rosa In Æternum’ is a blazing torch upon a cloudy, skeleton sky.
In addition, TRIBULATION will be supporting legendary progressive metal pioneers Opeth on their upcoming North America tour, which will kick off on October 11 in Milwaukee, WI and conclude on Halloween night in San Francisco, CA. this October 2024 with their last show on Halloween in San Francisco. The full itinerary can be found below while the tickets can be found HERE.

Formed in 2005, the band consists of Johannes Andersson (Vocals/Bass), Adam Zaars (Guitar), Joseph Tholl (Guitar) and Oscar Leander (Drums). They have released several captivating albums during their career and are renowned for their theatrical live performances. ‘Sub Rosa in Æternum’ marks the first release of the band after their 2023 EP ‘Hamartia,’ which has achieved critical acclaim after Tribulation’s award-winning last studio album, ‘Where the Gloom Becomes Sound’ in 2021.
