HEAVEN ABLAZE lead guitarist Derek Haley checks in with the following band update:

"Hailz!

Well... we are finally about to release our second album, Reborn Through Evil, after a bunch of minor setbacks that have pushed the release date back many months. We are in the works of setting up a CD release party sometime in late June/early July.

The new album was produced By Jean-Francois Dagenais of KATAKLYSM and mastered By Alan Douches at West West Side Music (NY).

The full album along with our first release is up for everyone to hear at www.divirta.com/heavenablaze .

Take some time and check it out... I'll keep ya'll updated with the release show!

Check out www.myspace.com/heavenablazecanada for new shows and updates! Come on out to London, ON, on August 12th and catch us with INTO ETERNITY and PROJUGUS MORTIS."

Another message from Derek reads, "I would like to invite everyone to welcome Pat Davis into the Heaven Ablaze family! Pat will be taking on rhythm guitar duties on a permanent basis for us in lue of Mike Grunds departure. As some of you may know, Mike Grund has gone to Europe for the next 2 years... we wish him luck with his future endeavors and look forward to pushing on with our new line up! With Pat on guitar and our new front man Derek Lee (ex-ESCHATUS) on vox... our line up is the strongest its ever been!

At the moment we are focusing on getting our new album, Reborn Through Evil, out for everyone to purchase... along side some nice new merch which will be posted shortly.

Also, you will all be happy to hear that we have NOT been sitting on our asses for the last few months... we have just come out of the studio and are putting the finishing touches on our third album... but thats all I will uncover for now... since the second one has not been released yet.

Check back for updates on the CD release party for Reborn Through Evil... along with some other great updates to come shortly!"
