Alesana has unveiled the track listing and artwork for their next album, The Emptiness which will be out on Jan. 26, 2010.

Produced by Kris Crummett (Emarosa, Dance Gavin Dance), the album is the Raleigh, NC group's third effort and sees the band at their most creative. Combining their trademark dynamic, emotionally charged, three guitar attack with a metal edge, the album is given new depth thanks to a strong narrative and the addition of a live string quartet. Look out for a preview of the tracks in the coming weeks!

The track listing is as follows:

1. Curse Of The Virgin Canvas
2. The Artist
3. A Lunatic's Lament
4. The Murderer
5. Hymn For The Shameless
6. The Thespian
7. Heavy Hangs The Albatross
8. The Lover
9. In Her Tomb By The Sounding Sea
10. To Be Scared By An Owl
11. Annabel

Forming in 2004, Alesana achieved acclaim in the U.S. and gained a huge fanbase overseas thanks to an intense touring schedule to support the release of albums On Frail Wings of Vanity and Wax (2006) and Where Myth Fades To Legend (2008). Having already completed tours with Chiodos, Silverstein, The Devil Wears Prada, A Day To Remember, Bayside, Mayday Parade, Drop Dead Gorgeous and Fear Before, the band will head out across the U.S. later this month on the "You'd Be Way Cuter In A Coffin Tour". Featuring labelmates The Word Alive, plus additional support from From First To Last, Asking Alexandria and Memphis May Fire, the tour kicks off on November 27th.
