JAKARTA - In a recent interview with The Metal Mixtape, Thomas Youngblood talked about the approach that Kamelot took in writing their new album.

Expressing the need to come up with something very familiar yet unique, the guitarist said: "Obviously, there's a balance between making an album that fans expect but then doing things a little differently so you don't do the repetition."

"And we're really good at it, I think. The team I have is really good at saying," Hey, we've done this. Let's do something different. "

Talking about metal music, continued Thomas, people expect certain things so that he and his colleagues always try to have that kind of DNA in every album. However, Kamelot also always made a difference.

"This new album will have the same approach - we have a lot of new elements or different influences, but then there will be things that people and they really expect, like, 'OK, this is Kamelot.' So it's a little bit of a balance. You don't want to overdo it. That's definitely not our goal. We want every record to be different. "

In August, Thomas told A&P Reacts that Kamelot has 25 songs to choose from for their new full album.

"Having Tommy (Karevik, vocals) one of the songwriters was deadly; he came up with really cool things. And then, of course, Oliver (Palotai, keyboards) and myself, and had Alex (Landenburg) as the drummer. us; he has a lot of cool ideas. Alex is a cool guy. So, yeah, this will be fun, "explained Thomas.

Two months later, Thomas revealed to the radio show "Rockum" that he and his bandmates had narrowed the material down to 12 songs to be recorded for Kamelot's new album.

"We will work with Sascha Paeth again in the production session. And we are very happy. This album may come out the middle of next year," explained Thomas.
