Several photos of ICED EARTH/ex-JUDAS PRIEST singer Tim "Ripper" Owens and his band BEYOND FEAR recording their debut album at Morrisound Studios in Tampa, Florida with producer Jim Morris have been posted online at Owens' official web site.

As previously reported, BEYOND FEAR recently signed on with Niji Management in Los Angeles. Niji is owned by Wendy Dio, who also manages Ronnie James Dio. Legendary drummer Aynsley Dunbar (WHITESNAKE, JOURNEY, ZAPPA, JEFFERSON STARSHIP) is also on the Niji roster.

BEYOND FEAR's debut album is scheduled for release in May 2006 on SPV Records worldwide. Working songtitles set to appear on the CD include "I Don't Need This", "And You Will Die", "Words of Wisdom", "It Is Me", "Telling Lies", "The Faith", "The Human Race", "Your Time Has Come" and "My Last Words". Joining Owens and guitarist John Comprix (SPAWN, 13 FACES) in the new group are Dennis Hayes (ex-WINTERS BANE, SEVEN WITCHES) on bass, Dwane Bihary (MISSING SKIN) on rhythm guitar, and drummer Eric Elkins (CRYPTKICKER, ALL YOU FEAR). European festival appearances are tentatively planned for the summer of 2006.
