Background
During an interview in February 2013, frontman Piotr "Peter" Wiwczarek announced that Vader had begun working on a new studio album with the working title Straight to Hell, which was set to be released in late 2013.[5] In May 2013, Wiwczarek announced that Vader planned to enter the studio in December to record its upcoming album, which was set to be released in early 2014.[6]
On December 7, 2013, it was announced that Vader had entered Hertz Studio in Białystok, Poland and had begun recording a new album, with a new working title, Tibi Et Igni, which is a Latin phrase that means "For You and Fire". The band had planned to record 14 new songs and 4 bonus tracks, and revealed possible song titles, including "Abandon All Hope", "Bring Them to Me" and "Infernal Poetry".[7]
On December 29, Wiwczarek announced that tracking for the album would be completed by the end of January 2014, and the album would be completed by February. He also announced the album should be released by April or May 2014.[8] On March 7, 2014, Vader announced that the band had finished recording the album, and that it will be released on May 30, 2014, through Nuclear Blast.[9]
On March 27, Vader released a teaser for Tibi Et Igni.[10] On April 16, a lyric video for the song "Where Angels Weep" was released.[11]

Tibi Et Igni is available as a standard CD, as a digipak CD with 2 bonus tracks, as a colored LP with a bonus 7" EP (including 2 bonus tracks), and exclusively through Nuclear Blast mailorder as a limited digipak edition with a signed Vader tourbook.
