| As their search for a drummer continues, Shadows Fall will release "Deadworld," a new, Japanese-only EP on August 22 (JVC Records). The release date will coincide with the band's performance at the Beast Feast festival in Yokohama, Japan on August 25, where Shadows Fall will share the stage with the best that extreme music has to offer, including Slayer, Pantera, Sepultura, Candiria and many others. For more information on Beast Feast, please refer to http://www.beastfeast.net/. For recording and temporary touring purposes, Shadows Fall have enlisted the percussive talents of Derek Kerswill, a longtime friend of the band. Kerswill will record two new songs for the EP and will perform with the band in Japan and a few Northeastern U.S. shows leading up to the festival. Information on the upcoming U.S. shows will be released shortly. The EP will consist of the following tracks: - Two new studio tracks: "Deadworld" and "Stepping Outside the Circle;"
- "Of One Blood," recorded live at CBGB's during the band's tour with In Flames;
- "Crushing Belial" and "The First Noble Truth," recorded live for WERS radio in Boston. For more information on Shadows Fall, check out the band's official web site at www.shadowsfall.com. |
