After almost two-year silence its time for PHARAOH to hit the road again, with a bunch of new releases coming out 2010-2011.
Following the incredible success of their third album Be Gone (Cruz Del Sur Music 2008) and their first-ever live appearances at Keep It True festival (Germany) and at the Alehorn of Power (Chicago, US), the band took a little break which has now finally come to an end.
The first item to be released is a 7 split EP with fellow-mates CANVAS SOLARIS (Sensory Records). These two bands have committed to an excited but demanding task, covering each one a different CORONER song!
PHARAOH performs a very professional and convincing version of CORONERs classic Tunnel of Pain, while CANVAS SOLARIS hits the right notes with their personal version of Arc-Lite.
This 7 is to be intended as a tribute to the legendary Swiss band of which both PHARAOH and CANVAS SOLARIS are long-time fans!
The release will see the light before summer 2010 and will be strictly available through Cruz Del Sur Music mail-order and other selected sales point.
Second to be released, in October 2010, is the Ten Years EP (cruz38) which was announced for 2009 but later postponed due to band and label other personal and professional commitments.
This so-called EP (total playing time of almost 26 minutes!) starts with the title track (feat. Jim Dofkas guest solo) and When We Fly, 2 unreleased songs out of the Be Gone recording session.
Then comes the first surprise of the album, a cover version of NEW MODEL ARMYs classic White Light, with Tim Aymar giving out an exceptional and singular performance to his standards.
Track 4 and 5 are Reflection and the Inevitable Future and Nothing I can say which were first released as a bonus 7 on the Be Gone limited gatefold LP release (cruz999).
To close the album, PHARAOH comes with another particular cover song, SLAYERs Tormentor, out of the classic album Show no Mercy.
The album (again enriched with JP Fourniers original artwork) is to be considered musically more a follow-up of Be Gone than an insight of whats to come next in the future of PHARAOH.
Future that will shortly see the band enter MCR Studio again under the supervision of Matt Crooks, to start recording its fourth full length album to be released in Spring 2011.
