Chimaira’s fifth full album, The Infection, hits stores next Tuesday. But you can listen to it right frickin’ now: The album is streaming at the band’s MySpace page.
If their previous record, Resurrection, rocked your world, then you’ll like the new one. It’s heavier than your mom in cement shoes.
The record itself is available in five different versions — from just-the-tracks CD/download to deluxe-full-metal-jacket package. Details are here.
The band is also sponsoring a Golden Ticket contest, which, according to the press release, “will give fans the chance to win a signature ESP guitar, a copy of Guitar Hero World Tour w/ guitar, or a trip to see the annual Christmas show live in the band’s hometown! Each prize will be assigned a ticket to be randomly placed in three of the previously announced CHIMAIRA box sets, which are available for purchase here.
