I was monitoring our sales rank on Amazon.com
After the CD was released it was... 273.615
let.s compare with, say, My Dying Bride's last album sales rank,
which is - 19.845. (well, those guys are really well-known all over the world) or Opeth's Deliverance - 11.612
or Ephel Duath with their really sucessful The Painter's Palette - 89.440
But recently I found that the rank for FS's debut CD was 195.294, which is a big improvement. But today, I was really shocked, when I discovered that it is...
29.689!!
And it also says...

It's just a nice detail to keep in mind... We'll see how it will go with the next CD, which is on it's way...

=======================

[/size][/font]Then. Sonm's official departure from Holland to Russia because of the end of his Ph.D. is February 2005 or (probably one month earlier). That means that right after that the new album will be finished.
The title for the next CD is confirmed and will be "The Crown of Winter", which is the second part of the trilogy announced in the beginning - All the "Sorrow, All the Majesty, All the Hate".
It will contain 7 or 8 songs of pure black/doom symphonic winter metal. Imagine that Emperor meets Opeth, then it all mixed with My Dying Bride and classical music.

The preliminary tracklist is

1. The Seventh Symphony of Satan (3 parts)
2. BlessU2Die
3. The Crown of Winter
4. Feral Magic
5. Away from the Dawn
6. ... (to be announced)
7.
... (to be announced)

Currently the band is preparing the official site update as well as several items for merchandize: T-shirts, longsleeves and stickers as a very important detail for the forthcoming tour, which will include Russia, Ukraine and Baltic States. Hopefully with God's (Lee's) help it will extend to Western Europe. FS is sharing the road with two russian bands, which are Hatecraft (melodic prog death metal) and Tvangeste (sympho black metal). 5 out of 12 cities in Russia are already confirmed. The complete list of cities and venues is coming soon...The date for the band to hit the road is 17th of March.

Wooohooooooo:)))))))

COol, good luck with the new album, and I cant fucking wait for it!! Btw, are you guys gonna record this stuff in a studio this time, or another run at the old home studio?!? Just curious.
 
When do you plan to update the website? When you do can you please put up the lyrics for the demos? Also for the next album is Forest Stream planning on making a music video? When do you think the lyrics will be put up? Do you think the new CD will be more Doom or Black? Sorry for all the questions but I want to know.
