Die Briten von ShadowKeep sind seit einiger Zeit im Studio um den dritten Longplayer einzuspielen. Laut SĂ€nger Richie Wicks wird es eine Konzeptscheibe; ein Albumtitel habe man noch nicht.

Wer noch nicht in den neuen, super produzierten Track 'Ten shades of black' reingehört hat, kann das auf der SK-Website nachholen. Keine Frage: es steht uns ein Melodic Powerhammer ins Haus. Mit Richie fest in der Band werden es die Keep'ler hoffentlich besser schaffen, den einen oder anderen neuen Supporter fĂŒr sich zu gewinnen.

Ich hoffe sooo sehr auf einen Knaller!!
For all the words unspoken, for all the deeds undone,
for all our shattered dreams, for all the songs unsung,
for all the lines unwritten and all our broken hearts,
for all our wounds still bleeding and all our kingdoms come.

Ein paar weiter News aus <a href='http://xsorbit29.com/users5/shadowkeep/index.php?topic=81.new#new' target='_blank'>dieser</a> Quelle:

SHADOWKEEP 3rd ALBUM DETAILS ANNOUNCED

As previously promised, ShadowKeep's official site at www.shadowkeepmetal.net can now exclusively announce the full details of the bands hotly anticipated third album.

The band featuring founder guitarist duo Chris Allen and Nicki Robson, drummer Scott Higham and debutants Stony Grantham on bass and singer Richie Wicks have been working at Thin Ice Studio in Surrey with co-producers Rich West and Karl Groom (Threshold) since December and work is on schedule to be wrapped up in the early part of June.

The album will be titled THE HOURGLASS EFFECT, and is a conceptual piece with a theme based around a time in the not too distant future where the sun is prematurely dying and rapidly expanding. On Earth when the news breaks matter-of-factly we go from riot to calm to denial to partial evactuation to a new world. Billions are left behind to die. Song topics range from losing your loved ones in desparate acts of euthanasia, to dreams of being wolverine killers and chosen ones! Once the evacuation has taken place we hear of mutiny, madness and death of many of the survivors who's minds simply couldn't process the fact that they'd just witnessed the demise of their home, life and history. There is so much more to tell but to do so here would spoil the impact so we must wait for the release to hit our decks!

The prase 'hourglass effect' is derived from how a star similar in age and size to ours which died billions of years prematurely appeared after its super nova. The resulting planetary nebula takes the shape of an ant-body or hourglass and is quite beautiful yet chillingly deadly.

The full track listing for THE HOURGLASS EFFECT is:

1: SHADOW KEEP
2: INCISOR
3: TEN SHADES OF BLACK
4: RIOT ON EARTH
5: SIX BILLION POINTS OF LIGHT
6: WAITING FOR THE CALL
7: AS THE HOURGLASS FALLS
8: LEVIATHON RISING
9: HEART SHAPED STONE
10: WITH FORCE WE COME
11: HOW MANY TIMES (HAVE WE TRIED TO SAVE THE WORLD)

Recording although not complete is very nearly done. Chris is currently putting the finishing touches to solos, then all that's left are sampling effects and a few keyboard parts. Richie's vocals are completely done now and editing is ongoing at this time.

Artwork for the album is being worked on also, with a candidate already likely to create the image for the record in place. Watch this space for an exclusive peek at this development soon, along with further details on a release date and listening party!
For all the words unspoken, for all the deeds undone,
for all our shattered dreams, for all the songs unsung,
for all the lines unwritten and all our broken hearts,
for all our wounds still bleeding and all our kingdoms come.

Danke, Michael. Wenn ich mir die Tracklist so ansehe, sind da entweder bereits eingespielte Songs auf der Strecke geblieben oder man hat sie mit anderem Titel/Text wiederverwendet.
Ich erwarte ĂŒbrigens nichts geringeres als der grosse ShadowKeep-Knaller, mit dem die Band endlich die zweifelnden Undergroundler auf ihrer Seite ziehen kann.

So, und da heute abend 'Some kind of monster' im dritten Programm des hollĂ€ndischen öffentlich-rechtlichen Fernsehen lĂ€uft und ich ohnehin den ganzen Tag vor dem PC gehockt und gearbeitet habe, knipse ich jetzt aus und sage: tschĂŒss und bis spĂ€ter.
