The 69 Eyes have announced the title of their upcoming album. Their 11th studio album is titled “Universal Monsters” and it will be released on March 4th, 2016 through Nuclear Blast.
The band stated:
“We are currently still in the studio with producer Johnny Lee Michaels in his Helsinki-based Bat Cave Studios. Our 11th studio album titled "Universal Monsters" will see the light of the day in April 2016 through Nuclear Blast Records. The first single and video from it will be released on January 15th, 2016. It’s called "Jet Fighter Plane" and the video for it was directed by Ville Juurikkala known for his work with Nightwish, Amorphis, Michael Monroe etc. The song has a dark early 80’s kind of vibe. I wrote the lyrics with those Cold War-era times in my mind. Strangely the world has totally returned into those dark days again after recording the song.
It’s been some 15 years since we recorded "Blessed Be" and "Paris Kills" albums with producer Johnny Lee Michaels here in Helsinki. You can consider "Universal Monsters" as a follow-up to those records. Nobody makes this kind of music anymore. From dark & rainy Helsinki, Jyrki”...
