Frozen Soul Announce Third Album No Place of Warmth
Dallas death metal juggernauts Frozen Soul have announced their towering third full-length, No Place of Warmth, set for release on 8 May via Century Media Records. A monolithic statement of intent, the album finds the band sharpening their frostbitten attack while allowing melody to seep through the cracks of their merciless riff architecture.
Built on a foundation of bruising death metal and hardcore urgency, No Place of Warmth surveys the emotional wasteland left in the wake of triumph. It’s an open letter to fans grappling with life’s colder realities — music forged not only to confront despair, but to conquer it.
Gerard Way Joins the Fray on the Title Track
Leading the charge is the album’s opening salvo, “No Place of Warmth,” featuring Gerard Way of My Chemical Romance. The collaboration feels both unexpected and inevitable — a meeting of theatrical intensity and death metal militancy.
Vocalist Chad Green describes the track as a meditation on survival: a choice between being consumed by life’s chill or using it to carve out your own heat. Way’s unmistakable voice threads through the blizzard, adding dramatic weight without diluting the band’s pummelling force.
The track arrives alongside a cinematic video directed by Brendan McGowen, with actor London Smith reprising his role from the band’s Morbid Effigy era — this time embodying Death itself. A dagger wrapped in rosary beads becomes the symbol of defiance: a refusal to be cowed by the inevitable.
Forged in Michigan, Tempered on the Road
Recorded over six weeks at Random Awesome Studios in Midland, Michigan with producer Josh Schroeder, the album captures a band operating on instinct. Entering the studio with a near blank slate after years of relentless touring, Frozen Soul wrote much of the material on the spot — in basements, between sessions, chasing immediacy rather than perfection.
The result is their most distilled and defiant work yet. Eleven tracks that emphasise brutality but never at the expense of hooks. Green’s sandpaper roar channels the spirit of classic American death metal while the band weld together influences that echo the extremity of Obituary, Cannibal Corpse, and Carcass.
A Gang of Killers
Way isn’t the only guest stepping into the frostbitten arena. Devin Swank of Sanguisugabogg and Rob Flynn of Machine Head also lend their firepower across the record. Yet none overshadow the mechanised assault at Frozen Soul’s core.
From their breakout EP Encased in Ice to full-length statements Crypt of Ice and Glacial Domination, the band have steadily tightened their grip on modern extreme metal. Sold-out tours and support runs with heavyweights have hardened them into a frontline unit — road-wisened and battle-tested.
This April, Frozen Soul cross the States alongside Sweden’s Avatar and Fleshgod Apocalypse, bringing their glacial assault to stages nationwide.
