Some news from the Omnium Gatherum camp,

Omnium Gatherum has finished their fourth album. It was forged into shape during the spring in Hämeenlinna and Karhula, Finland and it is entitled “The Redshift”. The album is set to be released in September. The Redshift is mixed and mastered by the Swedish mastermind Dan Swanö, who had this to say:

"I hate bands like Omnium Gatherum, they are so good it pisses me off! Their fine blend of melody and aggression is so good I actually thought about stealing the record and release it as my own. You won´t find a better album in years.”

You can check out an album teaser of The Redshift from YouTube. The address is:

The tracklisting of the new album is as follows:

1. Nail
2. A Shadowkey
3. Chameleon Skin
4. No Breaking Point
5. The Return
6. Shapes And Shades
7. The Redshifter
8. Greeneyes
9. The Second Flame
10. Song For December (prelude to DLF)
11. Distant Light Highway


After the release of the album the band heads out to Europe to tour with Nile and Grave after which Finnish dates will follow. See the bands website for further information and updates.

Hello everyone,

Loads of news for you all this time, some a bit sad, some better and some even better. Starting off with good news:

I'm pleased to announce that Dead Shape Figure has signed a booking deal with Secret Entertainment! Good to have you with us! The band just released their debut album "The Grand Karoshi" through Dreams Untouched, licenced by Season of Mist. You can check the band out at: www.deadshapefigure.fi and www.myspace.com/deadshapefigure

Million Dollar Beggars has just released their first digital single from the upcoming album that is released through Shadow World records this fall. The song is called "Stories..." and it is available for download through various internet sites, for example HS Musiikkilataamo. More can be found through the bands website at: www.milliondollarbeggars.com.

Million Dollar Beggars have also made a video of the song "Stories..." and it can be viewed on YouTube.

On sadder news, the bass player of Omnium Gatherum has left the band. Eerik Purdon's departure from the bands ranks will not affect the upcoming shows that have been booked for the band, thanks to replacement players. A permanent member for the band is being sought after and if you feel that you might have what it takes to join the band on their future quests, don't hesitate to write to: ogatherum@gmail.com

Thats all for now, gig updates follow a bit later.

Cheers,

Toni

Greetings,

Some mishaps with the site once more, but everything is corrected now. Kantapään kautta, as we Finns say, meaning basically that everything has to be learned the hard way, hehheh.

I am happy to announce that the new Shamrain album has entered the Finnish album chart at position 39! Congratulations to the boys!

Also remember to check the new music video of Passing Shadows that can be found from the Shamrain website at www.shamrain.net.

Be well,

Toni

Hello everyone,

Lots of things have happened during the last weeks, some of which more pleasant than others. Our worst concern has probably been our webpages, that have proved to be one difficut task to manage. Why is it so hard to get something to work properly?

Everything should be fine now, of which I must thank mr. Tuomas Palosaari and his wife Tanja Isoaho, who helped me to understand how websites are really constructed. There are still some minor inconveniences, mostly to you who use Internet Explorer, as you migh see our beautiful tree logo somewhat misplaced. We might get this bug solved with the upcoming upgrade from html to php.

On lighter side of news, one of our bands, ShamRain, just released their third album through Spinefarm Records just last week. I’m very excited about the album and I’m sure that it will prove to be a success. I’ll update some of the album’s reviews on the site at some point.

You can also see ShamRain live with Ghost Brigade end of this year at Jyväskylä, Tampere and Helsinki here in Finland. And if you live in Italy don’t forget the upcoming Iconcrash shows. There some treats for the Finnish fans as well, not forgetting the future shows of Dark Filth Fraternity and Hanging Garden.

Future looks great for Secret Entertainment. We’re getting some reinforcements from Germany, of which I’ll tell more to you later.

In the meantime, take care of yourselves,

Toni
