EVERGREY: New Audio Interview With RIKARD ZANDER Available

Video footage of EVERGREY performing on April 21, 2007 at Preoteasa in Bucharest, Romania has been posted online at Metalhead.ro. A video interview with EVERGREY vocalist/guitarist Tom Englund and keyboardist Rikard Zander, filmed in Romania, is available for viewing online at Metalhead.ro. More than 200 photos from EVERGREY's Bucharest concert have been posted online at this location.

EVERGREY recently parted ways with bassist Fredrik Larsson only nine months after he was recruited as the replacement for Michael Håkansson. A new bassist has not yet been announced, but none of the band's upcoming live activities are expected to be affected by this change. Larsson — who played bass for EVERGREY at the Bucharest show and is expected to do the dates in Australia this month — has since joined fellow Swedes HAMMERFALL.

EVERGREY recently began work on the follow-up to 2006's "Monday Morning Apocalypse", tentatively due later in the year. Guitarist/vocalist Tom S. Englund described the new material as "the heaviest and darkest we have released to date."

EVERGREY guitarist Henrik Danhage filled in for IN FLAMES guitarist Björn Gelotte on the latter band's U.S. tour at the end of 2006 due to the fact that Gelotte's wife was about to give birth to the couple's second child.

"Monday Morning Apocalypse" was recorded at Division One Studios in Gothenburg, Sweden by the experienced production team of Sanken Sandquist and Stefan Glaumann, who have previously worked with such artists as RAMMSTEIN, BON JOVI, BRITNEY SPEARS and DEF LEPPARD.
