DELAIN's "See Me in Shadow" single was released in the Netherlands on July 23. In addition to the title cut, the single includes three special acoustic versions. The song's official video was was shot on May 8 "in a very special country cottage in Brabant, Holland." "See Me in Shadow" is the second single from DELAIN's debut album, "Lucidity", which came out last year.
In addition to Martijn Westerholt and Charlotte Wessels (vocals),"Lucidity" features guest appearances by the following musicians:
Jan Yrlund (ex-LACRIMOSA) - Guitars
Ariën van Weesenbeek (GOD DETHRONED) - Drums
Ad Sluijter (EPICA)
George Oosterhoek (ex-ORPHANAGE)
Guus Eikens (ex-ORPHANAGE)
Sharon Den Adel (WITHIN TEMPTATION)
Marco Hietala (NIGHTWISH)
Liv Kristine (LEAVES' EYES)
"Lucidity" contains some interesting duets: Liv Kristine sings with Marco Hietala on "Day For Ghosts" and with Charlotte on "See Me In Shadow". Sharon den Adel's distinctive voice is a great counterpart to Marco's intense vocals on "No Compliance", whereas the heavy grunts of George Oosthoek combine very well with Charlotte's peaceful voice on a number of other tracks.
