Chaoswave: 'Dead Eye Dreaming' to receive European, Japanese release in March
Italian/Danish power-thrash metal act Chaoswave will release its new album, "Dead Eye Dreaming", in Europe and Japan on March 6 via Silverwolf/Spv. Silverwolf is also said to be working on an Australian release for the CD.According to the band, "the European and Japanese version will be slightly different from the already released American version. Most importantly, it contains a different bonus track. Where the American CD version had a hidden track (cover song of 'No Limit'), the European/Japanese release includes a previously unreleased Chaoswave song called 'From the Stare to the Storm'. This track was originally recorded as bonus for the 2005 debut album, but never was released."
In other news, Chaoswave has filmed a video for the song "10 Years of Denial" at a former mine site in Italy with Dutch director Richard Spierings (who has previously worked with Another Messiah). The clip will premiere a few weeks before the European CD release.
"Dead Eye Dreaming" was mixed last year by Andy La Rocque (King Diamond) and features a special guest appearance by Steve Smyth, former guitarist of Nevermore and Testament.
Commented Smyth: "I first heard Chaoswave a few years ago while on tour with Nevermore, and absolutely loved that they had a heavy, progressive metal sound, combined with a male-female vocal duo that sound huge, and very unique together. Everyone in this band is a top-notch musician! I am very pleased to have been asked and contributed solos to the band's new album, which I believe is sure to snap many ears in their direction!"
