LIV KRISTINE - VERVAIN


Liv Kristine (Leaves' Eyes, ex-Theatre of Tragedy) has unveiled the cover of her new solo album, Vervain. It will be released on the 27th of October 2014 by Napalm Records. This year Liv will be uniting with two other genre pioneers, Anneke Van Giersbergen and Kari Rueslåtten, for The Sirens tour.

DARK SARAH - BEHIND THE BLACK VEIL (EPISODE TWO)


Dark Sarah is the project from ex-Amberian Dawn lead singer Heidi Parviainen. The self-style "cinematic metal" band crowdfunded their first album, Behind The Black Veil, and are releasing it in several episodic installments. Episode one notably featured a collaboration with ex-Xandria vocalist Manuela Kraller - and this time round, Heidi has collaborated with Inga Scharf from Van Canto.

The tracklisting is as follows: 

1. Evil Roots (ft. Inga Scharf)
2. Violent Roses
3. Hunting the Dreamer
4. Fortress

The new songs will be out in two weeks, and you can catch the band's first ever live show at MFVF in October.
