Finally, we're able to share with you three snippets from our upcoming album!
We're done with the production and are now looking into mastering and artwork - if all things go as planned the album, entitled "Arctic Noise", will be out sometime in early 2007!
We know it's been a long wait but hopefully these new tracks are able to live up to your expectations.
With One Voice and Stroke can also be streamed from our MySpace and Black Cinder can be heard in its entirety on our label Memento Materia's MySpace.

These are all un-mastered snippets so keep in mind the final product should have a bit more punch.
