Norwegian progsters, LEPROUS, have wrapped up work on their newest studio album, which follows 2013’s Coal release. The album will be titled The Congregation, and is to be released on May 25th in Europe and June 2nd in North America via InsideOutMusic.

LEPROUS have recorded the drums, guitars and bass for their new album in Sweden's Fascination Street / Ghostward Studios with David Castillo (Katatonia, Opeth) and the vocals together with Heidi Solberg Tveitan and Vegard Tveitan at Mnemosyne Studios in Norway. Just like the preceding albums Bilateral and Coal, The Congregation was mixed by Jens Bogren at Fascination Street Studios (Opeth, Symphony X, Kreator).

Next to some previously announced festival appearances and the newly added show at Fortarock in The Netherlands in June, LEPROUS are now revealing the first dates for their extensive European headlining tour in support of The Congregation for September/October, alongside Rendezvous Point and another yet to be announced main support act.
