TEODOR TUFF Premiere New Video on Metal Injection

New Album Soliloquy Available June 19th on Nightmare Records
TEODOR TUFF are getting ready to release their new album Soliloquy on Nightmare Records June 19th. Recently the band completed filming a video for their song "Tower of Power". The video is receiving its North American premiere today courtesy of Metal Injection. The video is available for viewing HERE.

Soliloquy is available for pre-order on AMAZON.

TEODOR TUFF is a band in constant change. Upon the departure of three members in 2010, the band was joined by Christer, Rayner and Terje Harøy, lead guitarist, bass player and vocalist, respectively. Christer and Rayner are brothers, and also happen to play in Divided Multitude. Terje is their cousin.

The band's sound has now changed dramatically, and TEODOR TUFF comes across as a pure metal band with its own distinct style; guitarist Knut Lysklætt's inspiration from classical music, rock opera, musicals and even Middle East folk songs, is mixed with the Harøy clan's thoroughbred metal. As a result, TEODOR TUFF's second album - Soliloquy - is a truly exiting release!

The following very impressive guest performers have contributed to the album: Jeff Waters (Annihilator), Mattias IA Eklundh (Freak Kitchen), Martin Buus (Mercenary), Eskild Kløften (Divided Multitude) Jacob Hansen and Tonje Harøy. The four guitar solos in rapid succession on the epic track "Heavenly Manna", where Harøy, Buus, Waters and Eklundh do their best to outdo each other, must be certainly be up there among the greatest guitar solos of all time.

Soliloquy was mixed and mastered by Jacob Hansen (Volbeat, Mercenary, Pestilence). The cover photographs were shot by Frode Pederson and the cover art and cover design were created by Mattias Norén.

TEODOR TUFF surfaced with their self-titled debut album in 2009. The album was well received and entered the Norwegian charts. The album had clear references to the 70's, both in the music and in the lyrics. The band subsequently did support shows for both Whitesnake and Deep Purple.

1) Godagar
2) The Last Supper
3) Addiction
4) Mountain Rose
5) Hymn (For An Embattled Mind)
6) Delusions of Grandeur
7) Heavenly Mana

Theocracy vocalist Matt Smith comments on the re-release;
"A lot of people ask us how to get the debut Theocracy album, which is long out of print. Well, you won't have to wait much longer, because it's going to be re-released through Ulterium Records! We went through a lot of discussion about how much we wanted to rework it: Do we re-record the whole thing with the new lineup? Do we just release it as-is? There were a lot of ways we could go, but ultimately we decided that people love that album and it's a snapshot in time, so we didn't want to completely redo something people are attached to. We'd rather present the best-sounding version we can of what's already there, with one change that seemingly everyone wants to hear: real drums! Shawn's going to record drums to the tracks that are already there, and then I'm going to remix it, so it should be killer. Right now I'm going through the tracks and trying to get everything organized and usable (some of those recordings were really bad!), and soon we'll be ready for Shawn to lay down the drum tracks. Keep checking in, and we'll keep you posted as it unfolds!"

The latest Theocracy album "As The World Bleeds" was released in Europe on November 25th through Ulterium Records, in North America on November 21st through Nightmare Records and in Japan on April 25th through King Records.

"As The World Bleeds" debuted at #40 in the Billboard Heatseekers Chart during the first week of release.
