Now I am interested. New album features guest appearance by Mike Wead (King Diamond, etc.) New album this fall.....
Italian folk/power metal band ELVENKING recently finished mixing its new album at Sonic Pump Studios in Helsinki, Finland. The mastering took place on April 10 at Finnvox Studios with Mika Jussila and Nino Laurenne.
Commented guitarist Aydan: "Everything looks calm and relaxed but it is not exactely this way. The album is completed and now a phase where a lot of work 'behind-the-scenes' is to be done begins. For some months it will still look like nothing is moving while behind the curtain a lot of people are working for the release of the new album. Somebody may think that you record an album and a month later it is ready to be released in the shops, but it's not working exactly this way.
"The album has arrived in the hands of the 'important ones'` (record labels, management, etc) and everybody seems to greeeeatly appreciate it. This is a very good sign, also considering that it will be different from our previous releases (as usual). Let's see how things will move on that side.
"In the meantime we are working on other details, like cover artwork, booklet layout, photo session, video shooting (more about this in the near future...), etc. So we will have a busy summer.
Due this fall via AFM Records, the CD will feature a guest appearance on two tracks by Swedish guitarist Mike Wead (KING DIAMOND, MERCYFUL FATE, MEMENTO MORI, FIREGOD, ABSTRAKT ALGEBRA, CANDLEMASS).
ELVENKING released its third album, "The Winter Wake", in Europe in January 2006 via AFM Records. The CD was issued in the U.S. in March. The follow-up to 2004's "Wyrd" was recorded at Sherpa Studios (Italy), mixed at Sonic Pump Studios by Nino Laurenne and was mastered at Finnvox Studios by Mika Jussilla.
A nine-and-a-half-minute collection of video clips shot during ELVENKING's 2006 European tour has been posted at YouTube.
