AMORAL Members Keeping Busy With Side Projects, Guest Appearances

April 7, 2008

Finnish metallers AMORAL have updated their web site with the following message:

"As it's getting quieter on the gig-front at the AMORAL camp, the boys have been amusing themselves with other activites.

"Juffi [drummer Juhana 'Juffi' Karlsson] joined CRYSTAL BLAZE the prog-metal band hes been playing gigs with as a full-time member, and their new demo is available to download on their website.

"Ben [Varon, guitar] will be standing in for Euge Valovirta on GODSPLAGUE's upcoming gig at Virgin Oil Co, Helsinki on the 11th of April. The GODSPLAGUE guys are old friends who Ben just toured with on the 'Dimebag Beyond Forever' tour last December, so even though standing in for Euge is pretty intimidating, he just had to say yes. We'll see how that one goes..."

AMORAL last year entered the album chart in Finland at position No. 5 with the band's latest effort, "Reptile Ride".

An e-card for "Reptile Ride", featuring clips of all the songs on the CD, can be accessed at this location.

"Reptile Ride" (view cover artwork by Aki Siltala at this location) was produced, recorded and mixed by Janne Saksa at Sound Supreme Studios in Hmeenlinna, Finland.

Spikefarm Records last June released the Internet-only "Leave Your Dead Behind". The bonus track for this release was a cover of Swedish pop star PANDORA's song "The Naked Sun". AMORAL's back catalogue has also gone digital: "Wound Creations" (2004) and "Decrowning" (2005) were released to digital music distributors last May.

AMORAL's video for the song "Leave Your Dead Behind" can be viewed below.
