Kamelot have been teasing a new album of late with all indications pointing to a 2023 release.There have been some song titles floating around the internet—"Bloodmoon", "Eventide", "Awakening", "Midsummer's Eve", "The Great Divide", "Opus Of The Night" and "Pantheon"—and it has been confirmed that the artwork for the new LP will be helmed by Giannis Nakos.
The last release from Kamelot was the 2020 live LP, I Am The Empire – Live From The 013. Then in October 2020, Youngblood told the Rockum radio show that the band had "pretty much narrowed it down to 12 songs" that would be recorded for Kamelot's new album. "We're gonna be working with Sascha Paeth again on production," Youngblood said at the time. "And we're very excited."
In the meantime, keep your eyes peeled to the band's website for more forthcoming information.
