The date keeps getting closer and closer and we can’t wait to get our hands on The Sword’s new album High Country on August 21st, and the band has been more than happy to share what they have prepared for us with “Empty Temples,” “The Dreamthieves,” and the title track “High Country” but if that hasn’t been enough for you, check out their latest single “Early Snow.”

The band will head to Europe the same day the album gets released and hopefully will continue spreading the high in North America but there hasn’t been official word of it yet so we will just have to be patient and wait for a new tour announcement while jamming these new tunes.
