Well, it's been awhile but I have a bunch of news to report. "The Guardian of the Gate" album will be released on Pure Steel Records in the beginning of July but you knew that already. What you didn't know is that the band returns to the studio in about a week to start recording their 4th, untitled album. Also, drummer Mike Paradine is putting the finishing touches on his first solo CD, "Death in the Family", a very personal collection of works. The album should be finished by the weekend and will be shopped to various labels. There are also a few shows coming up but the band is waiting for all the info before they post it. Well summers here and it's time for a beer..Morty

The new album, "Guardian at the Gate" was originally suppose to be released this week. The band was notified the past weekend that this has been pushed back to the end of June, early July. The reason, since Pure Steel Records had recently merged with another label, they needed a larger distribution company. They just signed a contract with a German company, H'art, which has larger distribution, which in turn is actually better for all the bands on the label. Though it seems a bit disappointing, in the long run, it is much better. Also, video editing for "Raise Your Glasses" is currently being done.
