The heavy metal ‘n’ roll, dark, madcap visionaries collectively known as AVATAR — vocalist Johannes Eckerström (vocals), guitarists Jonas Jarlsby and Tim Öhrström, bassist Henrik Sandelin, and drummer John Alfredsson — have unleashed yet another track from their upcoming magnum opus and ninth album “Dance Devil Dance”, out Febriuary 17 via Black Waltz Records, distributed by Thirty Tigers. The epic masterwork is available for pre-order HERE.


The band has shared the video for “The Dirt I’m Buried In.” Follow the band through a gloriously creepy walk through the woods and while performing. You’ll even encounter some rock ‘n’ roll werewolves. 


“Our new album is designed to make you move and to move you,” says Eckerström. “We destroyed all doubt with ‘Valley of Disease.’ We blew the competition off the mountain with ‘Dance Devil Dance.’ Now the world is ours, and yours with us. The stage is set all that’s left to do is give in and join the circus. This is ‘The Dirt I’m Buried In.’ You are welcome.”

They secured slots at major festivals globally — Inkcarceration, Summer Breeze and Bloodstock Open Air, among others.
