Reformed UK thrash/doom/death metallers SEVENTH ANGEL have issued the following update from vocalist/guitarist Ian Arkley:

"I have added 'In Ruins' and 'Exordium' from the new album - hope you enjoy the tracks.

If you enjoy what you hear from the new album and would like to hear the whole thing, please do not download the album illegally. The truth of the matter is that there will be no future albums from bands like us if the trend continues as it is, because no-one will be able to afford to record a decent album.

Record sales generally have plummeted and small labels like Bombworks are feeling the effects. Downloads are temporary things and are no-where near as good as owning the actual albums. For the sake of underground music we need to support small labels. No-one is making any money which is not a problem for people like us as long as things can stay afloat. We make nothing from the band anyway, we just want to do this for pleasure. The sad fact is that some musicians will be struggling because their music is their livelihood.

There is a very interesting article about this subject in the current Guitarist Magazine.

Thanks to all those that have supported us and continue to support us."
