The Haunted ‎– Strength In Numbers - New Vinyl Record 2017 Century Media Pressing on 180Gram Clear Vinyl (Limited to 300!) - Swedish Melodic Death Metal

Street Date: 9/1/17

Strength In Numbers is the all-important follow-up to “Exit Wounds” from 2014, which saw the entrance of Ola Englund (guitars), and the return of Marco Aro (vocals) and Adrian Erlandsson after their respective 10 and 14 year absences from The Haunted’s line-up. Based on the strength of “Exit Wounds”, which was considered a fine return to form by critics and followers, the band took their time in creating a worthy successor.

Strength In Numbers was produced by Russ Russell (Napalm Death, Dimmu Borgir, The Exploited, etc.) which created a different vibe compared to The Haunted’s previous work with Tue Madsen. Because we live in the digital age and the band members aren’t able to gather regularly, a lot of the song arrangements for “Strength In Numbers” were completed before the band entered the studio; Russell was responsible for getting the best out of what they had to offer. Having an outsider’s view and a fresh set of ears, he decided where to push the new songs and where things should be held back, resulting in the aggressive sound The Haunted wanted to achieve this time out.

Featuring members: Jensen (Witchery, ex-Brujeria, ex-Satanic Slaughter), Jonas Bjorler (At The Gates, The Lurking Fear), Adrian Erlandsson(At The Gates, The Lurking Fear, ex-Cradle of Filth, ex-Paradise Lost), Ola Englund (ex Six Feet Under) and original vocalist Marco Aro.
