Swedish hard rockers The Quill will release their new album, "Tiger Blood", on May 24 via Metalville Records. The effort will be released on Cd, vinyl and digitally.

"Tiger Blood" consists of 10 tracks, with one additional song on the iTunes release.

As with The Quill's 2011 album, "Full Circle", the band worked with producer Petter Diamant at Jakaranda Studio in Gävle and the 491 Studio in Oskarshamn. The Cd was then mixed by Patrik Frisk (Crashdiet, Corroded, Takida) at Sidelake/Ninetone Studios in Sundsvall.

Comments the band: "The goal for this our seventh release was to make an album that was straight to the point without any excess luggage.

"Early on in the writing process, we all agreed on trying to make an album with a lot of variation giving the listener a broader picture of what The Quill is all about. With the album now finished, we can honestly say we managed to achive what we aimed for."

"Full Circle" was released on June 24, 2011 in Europe and July 26, 2011 in North America via Metalville Records.
