The heavy metal band Lifeforce , has announced its return to the studio to record its second album, about 15 years after the release of its self-titled debut. With the addition of vocalist Heron Ribeiro , the band has stabilized its lineup and has begun re-recording the album's vocals for release later in 2021. Completing the experienced Lifeforce lineup are guitarist Junior Comper, bassist Alexandre Lopes , keyboardist Matheus Cutini drummer Gustavo Bride
Apokalipsis , the band's new album, is a concept album that, without any religious or doctrinal aspect in its proposal, addresses the theme through the first-person narrative of a character who experiences the events recounted in the Book of Revelation from the Christian Bible, divided into 12 parts, which correspond to each of the album's tracks, with the exception of the song "Black Books," which deals with a related theme.
Regarding the recording and release of Apokalipsis, bassist Alexandre Lopes, a member of the band's original lineup, commented: “This album represents the blood, sweat, and tears of an entire generation of the band, from the composition process to its completion. It was a matter of honor to release it, and today we are honored with the result of Apokalipsis .”
Apokalipsis is scheduled for release in the first half of 2021 and should come with some surprises that the band is preparing, creating great expectations for the formation of a new audience and for the reunion with those who have been waiting so long for a new album from the band.
