March 12, 2008, 16 years ago
Finnish doomsters SWALLOW THE SUN have issued the following update:
"Some news from the frontline. First of all we want to thank everyone for making year 2007 such an amazing year for Swallow The Sun. We played almost 100 gigs supporting the album Hope, including two European tours, our first North American tour and a mini tour in Spain and Portugal. We had an honour to play huge festivals outside Finland, such as Wacken Open Air, Summer Breeze, With Full Force and Metal Heart Festival. We also shot two videos, for 'Don't Fall Asleep' and 'Doomed To Walk The Earth'.Hope got some good positions in yearly readers' and critics' polls, including the 3rd position in Best Metal Album series in Soundi magazine critics' poll. We were voted also in many other music magazine's readers' polls for the best band and album of 2007, with the charts consisting mainly of mainstream artists in Finland. We won the "Mättöfemma" gategory in Femmagaala awards in Finland.
So, big thanks to all you who made it worth it by coming to see us on tour, buying the album and making it enter the national Finnish charts on position #3 and being so nice to us where ever we went.
Alright, about the dark future: We are now rehearsing new music and enter studio this spring to record the next Swallow The Sun release called Plague Of Butterflies, that will be released later this year. We will give you more news about this new opus soon and what it will be...
The plague is coming, people, the plague is coming."
