A recent message from the band reads: "The musicians continue to work at Norcal Studios to finish the production of their seventh studio album which already has a title that will be announced soon."

Now it is almost done indeed! We are finishing the keyboards, improving some parts and mainly listening carefully everything that we have done until now”, said the vocalist Edu Falaschi.

"During the production, the group invited some artists that added such a great quality to the record. We counted on Zeca - Kiko’s brother, and my beloved brother Tito Falaschi to take part in some tracks. They recorded the backing vocals that touched all of us at the studio, since this album has been created in a very positive atmosphere. We have been working like a family again and we are extremely happy for this.

Anna Flavia, from the band IZI, was another guest that took part in the CD. She has her own style for singing which is different from the other heavy metal vocalists, and that was exactly what we were looking for. We didn’t want an obvious thing. We tried to reach a unique result. And we did it, you may be sure of that!”

The new record is planned to be released in August this year and then the band will announce a world tour. Stay tuned for further updates.
