LIZZY BORDEN namesake Lizzy Borden checks in with the following update:

"Well, we finally finished this gigantic epic of a record.

Joey Scott and I have been down here in Tampa, Florida at Mana Recording Studios for the past week compiling a few hundred tracks in the (B) room with Brian Elliott. Brian is doing an amazing job assembling and setting up this beast. Saturday the monster goes into the (A) room with Erik Rutan for the full “over the top, everything and the kitchen sink” mix.

I will update as we go."

Lizzy Borden's new album is due out in late summer, 2007. Stay tuned for further updates.

As previously reported, Lizzy has shot the cover of the as yet unnamed new recording. Lizzy is working with special effects wizard and make-up artist Ralis Kahn (www.ralisfx.com). Although no details have been revealed, Ralis has designed the set and the look of the band based on the characters in the storyline of the new recording.

Famed ‘Metal’ photographer Alex Solca took well over 1,000 shots in a two-day marathon, involving extras as well as the band (Lizzy, Joey Scott, Marten Andersson and Ira Black). At the end of the two-day shoot the set was literally set a blaze!, with flames shooting 30 feet into the air! And all captured on film.

“Because a lot of music is going straight to itunes, we thought we would pay special attention to both the cover and the back cover and fill the inside of the CD booklet with tons of fun shots from this specialized photo shoot. As we all know, very soon there will no longer be an actual CD to have a cool booklet for. Everything will go straight from the studio to your ipod, so we thought we would really do this one up right!”, commented Lizzy.

Fifteen hours worth of video footage was also filmed during the two day shoot. Stay tuned to www.Lizzyborden.com for the ‘Making Of’ as well as the cover to be posted soon.
