08-04-2026
Swedish melodic death metal pioneers AT THE GATES have revealed a second single for their upcoming album “The Ghost Of A Future Dead”, due out on April 24, 2026 via Century Media Records. “The Dissonant Void” is available now through digital service providers and comes with a video directed by longtime AT THE GATES collaborator Costin Chioreanu (Twilight 13 Media).

AT THE GATES comments: “We are proud to unveil the second track from ‘The Ghost Of A Future Dead’: ‘The Dissonant Void’. Originally considered to be the title track — it’s a powerful, melodic and to the point track with the classic AT THE GATES style sound.”
Watch the previously released “The Fever Mask” below.
AT THE GATES added the following comment about “The Fever Mask”: “‘The Fever Mask’ was one of the final songs written for the album and quickly stood out as the natural choice for both the opening track and the first single for ‘The Ghost Of A Future Dead’. It perfectly captures the essence of AT THE GATES, blending raw energy, strong melody and beautiful lyrics by Tomas.”
The follow-up to 2021’s wildly adventurous “The Nightmare of Being“, this upcoming release marks a special tribute to frontman Tomas Lindberg, who tragically passed away in September 2025.
“The Ghost Of A Future Dead” was recorded and mixed by Jens Bogren at Fascination Street Studios in Örebro, Sweden and comes with artwork created by Robert Samsonowitz.

AT THE GATES checked in with the following comment about “The Ghost Of A Future Dead”: “We are proud to finally share some news about our eighth studio album, ‘The Ghost Of A Future Dead’. The album will be released on April 24, 2026 — more than two years after it was completed in the studio.
“As you all know, Tomas Lindberg passed away last year due to complications from his cancer treatment. Over the past few years, we worked closely with Tomas, discussing and refining every detail to ensure nothing was left to chance.
“In accordance with Tomas‘s wishes — including the album title, sound mix, track order, artwork, and overall presentation — ‘The Ghost Of A Future Dead’ remains true to form. It combines the ferocious energy and hard-hitting powerful melodies that is the essence of AT THE GATES. This album is Tomas‘s legacy”.
Lindberg died five months ago after a battle with cancer. He was 52 years old.
