Classic NWOBHM act REKUIEM (formerly known as REQUIEM) check in with the following update:
"At last pre-production work has now started on the next Rekuiem album, to be entitled Raise The Dead.The new album, which will feature Chitral "Chity" Somapala (ex-FIREWIND) on lead vocals, is anticipated to be released worldwide during late summer 2008.
The band, who played the UK in November 2007, are also looking forward to more shows this summer in the UK and hopefully also Germany.
The band's lead guitar player and spokesman Steve Slater comments: "Wow, after a tough time last year with various problems and member re-shuffles we did real well to get things in place ready to play the November shows, but it was well worth the effort and what a time we all had! We've had so much good feedback on the new lineup since then that we now simply just have to make this new record with Chity; everybody just loves this guy! We'll now keep you regularly updated with news on the new record and future shows. Keep 'em peeled!"
