Hey Guys—
I’m excited to finally be able to go public with something that’s been in the works for several months. We worked very hard on this, and it’s for such a great cause. It was an honor to be asked to write this song, and a thrill to hear these amazing singers sing my melodies. I never ask people to buy stuff, but I feel OK making an exception in this case since none of the money is going to me or any of the other musicians featured. Everyone was awesome enough to donate their time and talents for free, in the spirit of what we’re trying to achieve here. So if you like it, please spend the 99 cents (Amazon, iTunes, all the usual places) and add this one to your collection. Help someone get a hot meal or a sleeping bag, and get a killer song (almost seven minutes!) at the same time. And help us spread the word on this, if you would be so kind. Thanks guys! :)

MEMBERS OF PAGAN'S MIND, THEOCRACY, DARKWATER AND END OF SEPTEMBER CONTRIBUTE TO CHARITY TRACK FOR HOMELESS RELIEF

Ulterium Records is proud to announce the release of "Collide & Spark",
an all-star charity track for sale with 100% of the income going to The
Bridge Bunch, an organization dedicated to serving the homeless
population of Nashville, TN, in the United States.

The song, which is almost seven minutes in length, is being released
under the banner Project Aegis, and was composed by Theocracy vocalist
and songwriter Matt Smith. It features vocals by Nils K. Rue [Pagan's
Mind], Henrik Båth [Darkwater], Elin Redin [End of September] and Smith,
as well as a guitar solo by Markus Sigfridsson [Darkwater, Harmony].

The artwork was created by Felipe Machado Franco [Blind Guardian,
Rhapsody of Fire] and designed by Markus Sigfridsson.

"This is such a cool opportunity to help make a difference in a small
way", says Smith. "Ninety-nine cents can go a long way toward giving
someone a hot meal or a sleeping bag, especially now, in the heart of
winter. Everyone associated with The Bridge Bunch works nonstop to serve
the large number of people struggling in the Nashville area, and every
penny of this goes to that very worthy cause. And the caliber of talent
on this track makes it something truly special indeed!"
