At The Gates have taken the next step in their bittersweet duty to release their final studio album with their late frontman Tomas “Tompa” Lindberg. Today, April 07th, saw the streaming reveal of a new music video for their song “The Dissonant Void“. Costin Chioreanu oversaw the direction for this new clip from the legendary Swedish melodic death metal outfit. At The Gates‘ surviving members collectively commented:
“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.”
Chinoreanu added:
“‘The Dissonant Void‘ is the peak of the iceberg, as a whole visual universe got born out of the void written so masterfully in lyrics by Tomas and expressed magically by the band through their unique heavy metal approach. This video, together with the whole ‘The Ghost of a Future Dead‘ movie, represent my ultimate homage to the genius which will forever remain as Tomas Lindberg.
It was a colossal task to express visually the depth and the darkness of these lyrics and music for an entire album, which also is most probably the darkest record I ever worked for.”
At The Gates‘ new album has been titled “The Ghost Of A Future Dead” and will meet a release later this month on April 24th via Century Media Records. The 52-year-old Lindberg tragically passed away in September of 2025, following a valiant battle against adenoid cystic carcinoma located in his mouth and palate, a cancer he was diagnosed with in late 2023.
As his bandmates would go on to reveal this past March, Lindberg managed to track demo vocals for the album ahead of the worsening of his symptoms, with those recordings ultimately making the album in accordance with Lindberg‘s wishes.
