The War of A Thousand

The War of A Thousand is the working title for the upcoming sixth album from American metal band Death Flower. It is to be released on March 28th 2010, and has been in production since November 2009.

Background
Following 2008's Sickened Offspring, the band toured across the USA for majority of 2009. Chris Davenport expressed in a April interview with Metalix that the band were eager to return to the studio. Davenport's brother Leon Davenport's death stunted progress in the album, but the band did release a single "Brothers In Arms" as a tribute to Leon in late 2009. Davenport confirmed the band had returned to the studio in November, and have been working on the album since. It is unclear whether "Brothers In Arms" will be included as a song on the upcoming album.

Guests
In December 2009, Chris Davenport confirmed rumours that Tool's Maynard James Keenan would make a guest appearance on the new album, as the band wanted it to have a Tool/progressive metal feel to it, while still retaining the metalcore of their previous releases. In January 13th 2010 Davenport and the band released the news that Keenan was appearing on a few songs, one of which being called "Rise and Take The Lands". The band have also said that Benji Webbe of Skindred, and Matt Heafy of Trivium will possibly be lending their vocals and guitar to the new album.
