CULT OF LUNA - ETERNAL KINGDOM OUT NOW!

After much anticipation and excitement, ETERNAL KINGDOM, the epic new album
from Swedish art-rockers CULT OF LUNA is out now in the UK/Europe!

Based on an actual journal found in an old mental home, ETERNAL KINGDOM
takes listeners on a weird and wonderful journey through the mind of a
former patient as he tells the tale of how his wife came to be murdered and
of the mythical creatures he claims to have encountered during the time of
the harrowing event.

The follow-up to 2006's P3 award-winning SOMEWHERE ALONG THE HIGHWAY,
ETERNAL KINGDOM is the fifth album from CULT OF LUNA and was recorded at
Tonteknik Studios in the band's hometown of Umea with producer MAGNUS
LINDBERG.

ETERNAL KINGDOM is available as limited edition digipak CD, regular edition
CD and limited edition gatefold double vinyl LP. Purchase your copy now
