The Vintage Caravan to Release Arrival in May; Album Art Revealed
Icelandric heavy rock three-piece The Vintage Caravan announced the recording of their second album back in December and I guess the process went smoothly because it’s barely mid-February and they’re announcing the thing is coming out in May on Nuclear Blast and showing off the David Paul Seymour cover art for it. Nice when things work out the way they’re supposed to.
Already veterans of Roadburn, The Vintage Caravan will play this year’s Desertfest London the last weekend in April, and that should make a suitable leadup to the release of Arrival, the title of which seems an awful lot like an answer to their 2014 debut, Voyage. The band comments come via the PR wire:
THE VINTAGE CARAVAN Announce New Album Details
Arrival Out This May on Nuclear Blast

THE VINTAGE CARAVAN on the new album: “We are so excited for the release of the upcoming album. It’s definitely a step forward for us musically and we are incredibly happy with how natural the recording process was and how well all of the songs turned out. Get ready for Arrival!”
The band recorded the follow-up to 2014’s critically acclaimed Voyage on an isolated fjord where they set up a studio in an old ballroom. The band once again worked with producer Axel “Flexi” Árnason who also produced their last album.
Commented the band: “The songwriting sessions have been going on since around October 2012 when our album Voyage had been out in Iceland for a month. We immediately started writing at that point so some of the songs are quite old for us. Because of that we have a bit too many songs but we intend to make this album around 10 tracks so we can put what we think are the best tracks on the album.
Right now we are doing demos, polishing the stuff and thinking of ways to nicely add to the production of the songs.
We are very excited to start recording this album. It’s going to be interesting to work on. The album is a bit different from our previous album – it’s a bit darker, a bit heavier, a bit more melodic but definitely all in a good way.”
