Delain ‘We Are The Others’ Details

25 January 2012 by admin

Delain have revealed the cover artwork and track listing of their third studio album ‘We Are The Others’.
It features Fear Factory shouter Burton C Bell as a guest singer on the track “Where Is The Blood”.
The cover artwork was created by Glenn Arthur, a California based visual artist whose work is inspired by art nouveau design and steampunk imagery.  The band comments: “Charlotte is a big admirer of Glenn’s work and she dedicated multiple blogs to his art.”
Charlotte explains: “From the first time I saw his work I’ve been imagining it as cover artwork; something in the way his work is both esthetically very delicate, but always with a dark undertone, fits our music very well.”
The band gave Arthur the lyrics to the song “We Are The Others” as an inspiration. “We’re incredibly happy with how the cover turned out. For more info on Glenn Arthur, check out his facebook.”

We Are The Others

1. Mother Machine
2. Electricity

Awesome cover - definitely!

A Message From Edenbridge

25 January 2012 by admin

After it has been very quiet around Edenbridge in the past year, here is a statement from Lanvall on the current situation:

“The past year brought a big challenge and many changes for nearly all in the band, personally and professionally, so Edenbridge had to step back into the second row temporarily. Furthermore I was struck by a family tragedy through the suicide of my father, which I had to come to terms with and still have to. Moments, where nothing is as it was before.

These events of course will have a strong impact on our forthcoming album which is scheduled for 2012. I believe that this is going to be the most intensive album of our history. 55 minutes of music and 6 lyrics are already written and I often have goosebumps listening to the songs. Furthermore I am working on the longest epic track so far, which will be between 15 to 20 minutes. So stay tuned for the album !

Edenbridge are confirmed for the Castle Rock Festival on July 7, 2012 in Mühlheim an der Ruhr, Germany !

A happy new year 2012 to all our fans !!!”

BTW it’s Mülheim an der Ruhr, not Mühlheim!
