Hi everyone!

It's been quite a while since we have had an update. We have all been taking it easy and recharging our batteries. The songwriting is still going on as we speak. I can say it's the first time where we have had more material then we actually need. The new songs are quite challenging and there are a lot of cool musical interludes in every song it seems. Of course there are still heavy riffing, but I think it will be more of a musical sounding album.

Stu Block flies back to Regina at the end of the month and the lyric / vocal melody writing will start up. I know Stu has already started his lyrics and I have as well. We are anxious to get started with that.

Everybody knows that our touring drummer Adam has quit. We were hoping to have him on the album and keep this lineup, but some things are not to be. We wish Adam the best in his future.There have been a lot of drummers sending emails etc. and we thank everybody for the support. Hopefully we will have news soon with what is going on. Our plan is to start practicing in March and hopefully play some shows in April/May. After that the band will head into the studio for album number 4!

keep it Metal!

The B.B. King's website lists them as opening for Gamma Ray. Anyone know if this will happen? (it's the same day as Dragonforce)

As far as I know that depends on the drummer search. They're about to try out someone and I guess if that works out, it will be ok. Like Tim says in the messages, they *will hopefully play* some dates and I am under the assumption that those are dates with GR and the New England fest. But first they need to get someone to fill in on the drums of course
