Guitarist Adam Zaars comments on the album release: “It’s finally getting released! This album is really special to us and we’re all very proud of what we managed to create, with invaluable help from both Tom Dalgety and Ola Ersfjord. Artistically we’ve always been on the move, sometimes in a big way and sometimes to a lesser extent, but we knew we had to do something different with this album. We didn’t know what, but luckily the album gradually revealed itself to us. We hope you’ll enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed making it!”

On »Sub Rosa In Æternum«, Tribulation conjure new beasts: Part psychological horror of Italian cinema, part gaunt British goth, and part Art Deco opulence, »Sub Rosa In Æternum« is a blazing torch upon a cloudy, skeleton sky. The band supported legendary progressive metal pioneers Opeth on their North America tour this October 2024 with their last show on Halloween in San Francisco.

»Sub Rosa In Æternum« has been highly anticipated after the successful releases of the singles »Saturn Coming Down«, »Tainted Skies«, »Hungry Waters«, and »Murder In Red«. It has received critical acclaim by media and press for its musical sophistication, artistic nature and storytelling:

“»Sub Rosa In Æternum« wraps the Swedens’ signature sound in the guise of a Giallo horror film, coupled with the elegance and sensuality of Art Deco and a new artistic undertone…. Tribulation grows from album to album.” – Rock Hard

“It is a joy to see how they stage their fog-shrouded, patchouli-heavy, melodramatic and gothically embellished anthems to the dark side of life, fateful star constellations and intoxicating spirituality” – Metal Hammer

“With »Sub Rosa In Æternum« Tribulation go one step further and usher in a new era. Despite the further developments, Tribulation’s own identity remains intact. Because one thing has remained the same – the high addiction factor for the catchy, atmospherically dark and melancholic gothic horror … an album full of catchy and dark hits!” – Metal

“At first, the pace seems strange, after all, the brand Tribulation is on the rotating record. But once you get hooked, the addiction factor is quickly reached. What’s more, »Sub Rosa In Æternum« is one of the most complete albums I’ve got my hands on this year. Strong atmospheres, always successful choruses that tell a story, but also work wonderfully on their own.” – Time For Metal
