CIRCUS MAXIMUS Completes Work On New Album

May 29, 2007

Norwegian progressive metal band CIRCUS MAXIMUS has issued the following update:

"It's been a while, but for the last 9 months we have been preparing a new album for you and now it is finally DONE!!

"The name of the album is 'Isolate' and has this dark approach to it, although we have of course still kept the melodic touch that CIRCUS MAXIMUS is all about.

"The album ended up being a concept-album although that was never the intention, but as the songs and the lyrics went along the story just added itself.

"To make it short ... The story is about how much you can lose until you go completely mad, and how much have lost when insanity finally embraces you. It's really up to the listener (and reader ...) to intepret the story themselves, because it can be understood in different ways and we don't want to spoil the surprise . hehe.

"There's one instrumental among the 9 songs, 1 real epic tune clocking in at almost 13 minutes as well as another 9 minute tune.

"Here are the song titles:

01. A Darkened Mind
02. Abyss
03. Wither
04. Sane No More
05. Arrival Of Love
06. Zero
07. Mouth Of Madness
08. From Childhood's Hour
09. Ultimate Sacrifice

"So there you have it. The release-date so far is end of August '07 for Europe and either end of August or early September '07 for North America. As for the rest of the world, our management is currently looking for a licensing partner.

"In the meanwhile have a great summer, and we hope to see you at one of the many festivals we'll be playing soon. A new website is also in the making and will be launched real soon — there you will also be able to get a preview of our new music."

CIRCUS MAXIMUS released its critically acclaimed debut album, "The First Chapter", in 2005 via Frontiers Records.
