AMARANTHE vocalist Elize Ryd has issued the following update:

"Hi! Preparing and packing for departure to Gothenburg and an exclusive video recording with... Timo Tolkki (SYMFONIA, ex-STRATOVARIUS)! We have recorded a song together and it sounds great. I've tried to choose dresses and hair sets for the video, I think I got it right... I need to talk to my stylist before we decide. This will be great! I will keep you informed about this project. Hugs! Elize"
