CIVILIZATION ONE Adds Second Guitarist

August 29, 2007

CIVILIZATION ONE has announced the addition of Christian Münzner (MAJESTY; ex-NECROPHAGIST) as the group's lead guitarist. Chris is a neoclassical shred monster who will add another dimension to the CIVILIZATION ONE musical attack.

The band's new songwriting necessitated adding another guitarist to the fold, as it would have been impossible for a single guitarist to perform all of the parts live. Now the group will have the classic two-guitar lineup which they envisioned since their formation — with an emphasis on dueling leads — as exemplified by such heavy metal greats JUDAS PRIEST, IRON MAIDEN, NEVERMORE, and ARCH ENEMY. CIVILIZATION ONE will no longer have a keyboard player in the band.

CIVILIZATION ONE features in its ranks vocalist Chity Somapala (ex-FIREWIND, AVALON),guitarist Aldo Lanobile (SECRET SPHERE),drummer Luca Cartasegna (ex-SECRET SPHERE),and bassist Pierre-Emmanuel Pélisson (MALADAPTIVE; ex-HEAVENLY).

CIVILIZATION ONE will have its debut album, "Revolution Rising", released in Japan on September 26 via Spiritual Beast Records. This Japanese release will include the bonus track "Out in the Rain". "Revolution Rising" has recently been released in Europe, where it has received great praise from both fans and press alike.
