EMPIRES OF EDEN Release Guardians Of Time Album; “When Will It End” Feat. MIKE LEPOND Streaming

Empires Of Eden, led by producer / guitarist Stu "The Hammer" Marshall, released their new album, Guardians Of Time, today (November 15) via Massacre Records.

Lyric video for “When Will It End” is streaming below. The track features Darren Smith (Jake E. Lee’s Red Dragon Cartel), Mike LePond (Symphony X), and Clay T. (Arkenstone).

Guardians Of Time holds even more electrifying collaborations, with artists such as Jonas Heidgert (Dragonland), Louie Gorgievski (Night Legion), Tony Webster (Archetype) or John Gallagher (Raven) to name just a few, and continues Marshall's legacy of delivering high-octane metal with both precision and passion.

Stu Marshall, a renowned Australian guitarist and producer, is best known for his explosive guitar work, blending technical prowess with melodic sensibility. Rising to prominence with the power metal band Dungeon and more recently US power supergroup Death Dealer, Marshall's career has spanned decades, marking him as one of Australia’s most respected metal musicians.

In 2008, Marshall embarked on his solo project, Empires Of Eden, creating a platform to collaborate with some of the biggest names in metal. The project brought together an array of world-class vocalists, allowing Marshall to blend symphonic, power, and traditional heavy metal elements into epic soundscapes. Since its inception, Empires Of Eden has released four critically acclaimed albums, showcasing collaborations with metal legends such as Udo Dirkschneider (U.D.O., ex-Accept), Ralf Scheepers (Primal Fear), Zak Stevens (Savatage, Trans-Siberian Orchestra), Rob Rock (Impellitteri), Mike Vescera (Yngwie Malmsteen, Loudness), and Jeff Martin (Racer X). Each release delivers a mix of Marshall's complex guitar compositions and the iconic vocal styles of his guest artists.

Guardians Of Time can be pre-saved here. The album will be available to pre-order on CD Digipak and limited edition vinyl LP soon.

Guardians Of Time was mixed by Stu Marshall, Clay T and Chris Themelco. Chris Themelco also mastered the album. The album artwork was designed by Alex Yarborough.
