SOILWORK frontman Björn "Speed" Strid has checked in with the following update:
"Hey all!Below you can listen to two bands that I've had the honor to work/collaborate with, really talented bands! BLINDED IN BLISS has an album out called Constancy, and HEARTS ALIVE's album is titled He Who Has The Gold Makes All The Rules that is available on the April 27th. Make sure you check out both of these killer bands!"
As previously reported, vocalist Sarah Jezebel Deva (ANGTORIA, ex-CRADLE OF FILTH) recently contacted BW&BK; with an exclusive update on her forthcoming EP, Malediction, which involves Strid:
"I am so happy to announce the participation of Björn "Speed" Strid from Soilwork on guest vocals for one of our tracks on the forthcoming digital EP, Malediction. Seeing as we are touring the UK in May and have a bunch of other festivals and shows coming our way, we wanted to release something prior to touring - for our fans and for the curious - to help promote the shows. After recording one of the songs, 'Lies Define Us', in early January, we decided we wanted a killer male vocalist. With the help of a good journalist friend and the offer of a bag of Haribo, Björn said yes. He has just recorded his vocals and it's sounding so good. We really are honored he got involved and, of course, liked the song enough."Martin Powell (ex-COF, MY DYING BRIDE, ANATHEMA) played keys for all three tracks on the EP. A release date is set for May via Listenable Records.
