NO MORE SHOWS OR NEWS UNTIL NEW ALBUM IS FINISHED!!!
****************************************************

Our next show on Aug 30th (with FINNTROLL) will be the last TWELFTH GATE live performance until the new album is finished. Writing for the next album has FINALLY kicking into high gear, & in order to help stay focused, we've decided to take a much needed break from live shows. We've had a new singer & drummer for enough time now, and it's about time we put out a new album. We have a lot planned for this one, and we're very excited about it....so no point in wasting any more time. Hopefully, the new album will see the light of day in late 2009.

So unless something drastic happens, you will NOT be hearing any more news from us until the new album is finished!!! So...Happy Halloween, Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas (or whatever holiday you choose to celebrate at the end of the year), Happy New Year & hopefully not too many more holidays will pass before you hear the news of a new album. All the best to everyone & we hope to have something for you sooner than later.

Take care & see you in 2009!!!
