Sideburn - Evil or Divine

Swedish heavy rockers Sideburn will issue their fifth album, Evil or Divine, June 9 in North America via Metalville Records. The new outing follows two full-lengths on Transubstans, one on Buzzville and their 1997 debut, which arrived via Beard of Stars, so they've been nothing if not well-endorsed throughout their career. Hard to imagine the new record's title isn't a Dio reference - as in, "We'll know for the first time/If we're evil or divine/We're the last in line" - and if so, if that might speak to some inflection throughout of classic metal, but we'll see when we get there.
