Ex-AFTER FOREVER vocalist Floor Jansen's new band, REVAMP, has posted a short pre-production audio sample from the debut album online. Go to this location and click on "Media" to check it out.

Jansen comments: "We know you have waiting with great patience for some music. Hereby a short part of our song 'Head Up High'. Do realize this is pre-productional material, you hear a drum computer and home recorded bass, guitar, keyboards and vocals. We did mix it so it sounds ok enough, but it's not the quality the album will have! Let us know what you think!"

The songs were written and recorded with guitarist Waldemar Sorychta (GRIP INC., ENEMIES OF THE SUN) and keyboardist Joost van den Broek (ex-AFTER FOREVER, STAR ONE).

As previously reported, Latin American fans of Jansen's work have launched Facebook and MySpace support pages, as well as an online petition to have her play shows in that part of the world. Check out the links below.

Following is the official ReVamp bio:

"After the break of After Forever, singer Floor Jansen soon decided she wanted to start over and present a new band to the public as soon as possible. To accomplish this she joined forces with two additional songwriters to first compose, then record an album. A live band is soon to be formed after completion, which will get her back on stage where she belongs!

The first composer to join this new collaboration was soon found when Waldemar Sorychta contacted her to inquire about her current activities and potential future cooperation. Being a fan of Grip Inc. this idea of working with Waldemar was a big honor and a first step in creating a sound! Waldemar’s unique style combined with his experience as songwriter/producer made her dream come closer to reality.

The second composer was found in After Forever colleague Joost van den Broek. Asking Joost to join seemed logical because of his great keyboards and arrangements, and therefore his potentially valuable contribution. Despite his busy schedule, he wanted to join and get started immediately. With him on board the songwriting team was complete!

The ReVamp sound will become a unique blend of the personal style we will recognize from these musicians. Combining these individual sounds in one album promises to result in heavy and very metal!

Songs are currently being written and we will soon upload some short samples!"
