It seems the album will indeed be released on 11th August (pre-release orders just might make it out before this); digital release is also confirmed. Amazon have some previews on their site, and the digital release will be available on itunes, amazon and most other sites from 11th August onwards.

Get your pre orders for the CD release in here if you can though- you’ll save cash and help the band get to Wacken ;)
The Achren Album ‘The Forgotten King’ is now available for pre-order on our merchandise page. Scheduled for release at Bloodstock Festival, the album was mixed by Matias Helle at Drophammer Studios, Finland and mastered by Jens Bogren (Opeth, Amon Amarth, Paradise Lost, Devin Townsend) at Fascination Street Studios, Sweden. It’s been one hell of a wait but we’ve managed to get something that captures the live aggression of the band and combines it with a powerful production from some of the best in the business.
