AUTUMN: New Video Interview Available

May 14, 2009

Holland's FaceCulture recently conducted an interview with vocalist Marjan Welman and guitarist Mats van der Valk of the Dutch female-fronted gothic metal band AUTUMN. Watch the chat in six parts below.

"The Heart Demands", the new video from AUTUMN, can be viewed at Metal-Hammer.de. Some of the footage for the clip was shot during the band's March 14 concert at The Rock Temple in Kerkrade, Holland.

"Altitude", the fourth studio album from AUTUMN, recently entered the national chart in the band's home country at position No. 94.

AUTUMN played a CD-release show for "Altitude" on February 13 at Tivoli-De Helling in Utrecht, Holland. Check out photos from Utrecht Roxx.

"Altitude" was released in February in Europe via Metal Blade Records. The CD was recorded at Arno Krabman's Graveland Studio and was mixed and mastered by Jochem Jacobs (TEXTURES) at Split Second Sound.

The limited first edition of "Altitude" was made available as a digipak including an exclusive bonus track.

AUTUMN in February 2008 announced the addition of singer Marjan Welman to the group's ranks. She replaced Nienke de Jong, who left the band in January 2008.

Within the Dutch rock scene, Marjan is considered to be a promising talent with her warm voice and perfect timing. Her vocal contribution on the AYREON album "01011001" received outstanding reviews and shows a singer who stands her ground between a selection of highly acclaimed international vocalists.
