The Sword<\/a><\/strong> recently unveiled their plans to return via an appearance at Levitation 2024<\/a>. Now Magnetic Eye Records has revealed the band’s first plans for new material, except it’s not new \u2013 it’s a cover and it’s probably gonna rule.<\/p>\n The Sword<\/a><\/strong> will take part in Magnetic Eye Records’ upcoming Aqualung Redux<\/em> cover album where a handful of bands take on Jethro Tull<\/strong>‘s classic prog masterpiece. Pre-orders for Aqualung Redux<\/em> are available here via a Kickstarter seeking $8,000<\/a>. And considering how the rest of Magnetic Eye Records’ redux series have turned out, you should consider donating.<\/p>\n “We launch into our latest Redux<\/em> project with the announcement that the newly reactivated The Sword<\/a><\/strong> are taking part in the project,” wrote Magnetic Eye Records.<\/p>\n “The news that The Sword<\/a><\/strong> were going on hiatus and possibly coming to an end a few years ago was a massive blow to fans everywhere, so we’re incredibly stoked that the first new recorded music from The Sword<\/a><\/strong> since their announcement of new activities will be a track on Aqualung Redux<\/em>. We can’t wait for fans to hear the buzzing energy of their song on this album, and we’re proud beyond description to help usher in a new era of this band!”<\/p>\n
