Can you feel it? Any minute now, the PR wire is going to bring news of a release date for Greenleaf‘s new album, Hear the Rivers. Any minute. The new outing from the mainstay and road-dog Swedish heavy rockers was first announced back in January ahead of the band embarking on an Australian tour in March. They’ve reportedly been in the studio off and on as well as busy with procreating/family life, but they’re still getting out in November for a quick run mostly in Germany that will also include stops in Paris, London and at the Helldorado Festival in Eindhoven. Starting out with a gig in Dresden alongside My Sleeping Karma and Ripple Music upstarts The Necromancers, support for the bulk of the run will come from German trio Samavayo, who also have a new album in the works.

I don’t know if the Samavayo will be out by November — anything’s possible — but the prospect of a new Greenleaf only makes an already amazing 2018 even better. Somehow it’s only been two years since 2016’s Rise Above the Meadow (review here) scorched eardrums and took Greenleaf‘s sound to its greatest accomplishment yet, but I guess it feels like longer because, you know, the record’s timeless. Seriously. I still put it on, and it’s way harder for albums to pass the after-the-year-ends test for me these days. Just saying.

But yeah, so given that, I’m gonna go back to waiting for that Greenleaf press release to come rollin’ in. Any minute now…
