Due out on April 20th in Europe and April 21st in North America, Tribulation’s The Children Of The Night is already being hailed as one of the albums of the year by the music press – even our esteemed (and notoriously picky) editor seems to have gotten all hot under the collar over this one! In anticipation of the release, the band has unveiled another new track, ‘The Motherhood Of God’ which you can check out via this link. For another preview off The Children Of The Night, check out the previously released single ‘In The Dreams Of The Dead’:

Riding on the crest of all the attention the band are demanding right now, seems they’re releasing the album in all manner of formats – limited edition this and limited edition that, in fact, it’s all pretty complicated. Personally, I’m losing the will to live just putting it all in this post, but if you’ve a spare couple of hours and a shopping list to hand it’s all listed below – along with an extensive list of live dates! It might not surprise you to learn that the next edition of Zero Tolerance, out on 24th April, will also feature an interview with the band – so be sure to add that to your list while you’re at it!
