Next week we're mixing some of the new stuff for the next album, it¹s going to be thunderous, magical, mega heavy, dramatic, spectacular and magnificent one!!!

All for now!

We have a new year, which we look upon with a lot of excitement.

There is already a bunch of songs written for the new album and we are now working with the little details to make the songs as good as possible. Jakob has been writing some great lyrics and we are really enjoying our time in the studio. At this moment it's just Marcus and Jakob in the studio while Pontus is in Japan with Europe, but he will be back soon with us to continue with his parts of the recordings. In the end of January and February we are doing some gigs soon to be announced in Sweden. Don't forget to check out the cool pics from the Germany tour and sign the guest book!!

Take care and stay metal!

MERRY X-MAS!!

Mayhem in Germany!!
4-12-04
We are 2 gigs and three days in to the Germany tour with Motorhead & Sepeltura and we are getting into the life on the roads ones again. Everything is going great, sold out venues with capasety of 3500-4000 people and the response is fantastic. Yesterday we meet fans standing waiting in the cold for half an hour just to shake hands and getting the cd signed! The crew and the bands are totaly awesome, Ritchie in the catering is makingthe Balrog apear as sweet as Winnie the Pooh and Federico has been sippin onthe beer of shame since their first meeting, we will maybe follow up thatstory later... Maybe some material for the fourth album...but probebly not... The German beer is as good as always and has the same brilliant effect asalways... making you ride hard and strong night time and just little softerthe morning after. There are quite a few serious metal heads out here and we are going to winthem all!!

This morning we did the cool morning show on Classic Rock Radio hosted by Ian Haugland (Europe). You could hear Gathering darkness & Voices Of The Fallen Kings thundering out in the media and lots of great reactions from listeners calling in to the radio station. We also had three lucky winners of the album and invitations to the gig on O Baren this Wednesday! The merch is ready on Wednesday and will be out on the net early next week!

Until soon...
Bless you!
Stay Metal!!
