Sweden based metal act BLINDED COLONY have issued the following update from guitarist Tobias Olsson:

"Hey Folks!

As usual we're too fucking lazy to write a studio diary: but I'll fill you in with what we've achieved so far.

Our new album will be called Bedtime Prayers and will be released on our new label Pivotal Rockordings this fall! The release dates of the album will be October 13 (13.10.06) for everyone in Europe. Bedtime Prayers will be released in North America and the rest of the world on October 17 (17.10.06).

So far we have recorded all the drums, guitars, and bass. (Singer Johan) Schuster is still locked up with Johan B. in SoundPalace Studios working on the vocals. We also will be mixing and mastering Bedtime Prayers shortly after the vocal tracks are completed. There is a new studio video that we have uploaded onto the MySpace and onto our official website that you view to see the craziness that is Blinded Colony in the studio!

Bedtime Prayers will contain 10 neck rippin' tracks and I'm sure that fans of our Divine album as well as our demo tracks will be really content with the new material! Some of the song titles we will be using for Bedtime Prayers will include: 'Bedtime Prayer', 'Heart', 'Once Bitten, Twice Shy', and new song, tentatively called 'My Halo'.

Some other news...

We've done a lot of gigs these days and we want to thank everyone who has come out to support us! We played in Denmark at the Roskilde Festival Warm up show with our new friends THE PSYKE PROJECT and BY NIGHT, who are from Sweden. We had a great time at the event, even though the sound didn't go well for us at all, we send a special thanks to everyone who stuck around! It was great to hear all the awesome feed back from everyone! We will be back in Denmark in July and will be having our release party in Gothenburg at the Belsepub with our good friends in Sonic Syndicate on October 13! I am really excited for that gig and it should be fun for all who come out! We know our label is planning a release party in Chicago on the US release date, so everyone please be on the lookout for that!

A big hello goes out to the Swedish thrashers EVILDOER! They are some really cool guys and good friends of ours! We wish them the best and we hope that everyone checks them out!

Also, we are currently planning out European tour with some friends of ours and we look forward to seeing all our friends in the UK, Germany, BeneLux and France sometime this fall/winter!

That's all for now people. Everyone have a great summer and you will hear from us again when the album is done! Till then, stay in touch, keep checking back for more news and stay METAL!"
