Crossfaith To Release New Album 'Xeno' In September

Written by Laura Johnson
Crossfaith will release their new album, 'Xeno', in September.
The Japanese quintet's new record is due September 18 via UNFD. It follows 2013's ‘Apocalyze’ and 2012's ‘Zion’ EP. Discussing 'Xeno', frontman Kenta 'Ken' Koie said:
"This record is dedicated to everyone because we believe it will make a new phase in this music culture...
We had a bad time after we released the last album ‘APOCALYZE'. Our original guitarist Kazuki had to leave during a tour due to a cerebral haemorrhage, it was the worst thing to happen to us in our entire music career. Fortunately or unfortunately, it just affected his left hand. He is still alive, he never gave up as a musician and he wrote a couple songs for this record as well. It has bound us together as one.
The experience of working with Josh Wilbur means a lot to us. He brought us fresh feelings and has helped us to create our best record to date. We put everything we’ve got into ‘Xeno’ and it is the most important and precious thing to us.
We can't wait to share the experience of ‘Xeno’. It is beating, it is alive!
We are dedicating this record to everyone!”
