FALCONER Extends Deal With METAL BLADE RECORDS

April 23, 2007

Guitarist Stefan Weinerhall of the Swedish epic/power metallers FALCONER has issued the following update:

"We just extended our deal with Metal Blade for another four more albums. YAY!! We didn't see any reason to change label or even look over the fence since we're this content with the present situation and collaboration.

"The future plans consist of the festivals, of course, but also a studio recording sometime this winter.

"About the new material: So far I have seven new songs done, but there's still more work to them. Slightly faster and with more unexpected turns is all that I can say now. The lyrics will all be about Swedish medieval life and episodes. Not a concept album really but still something in that direction. What I decided early on what that it wouldn't become 'Northwind Pt. 2'. 'Northwind' is as good as it can be, therefore we'll make things a tad different this time. Can't wait until we're back in the studio again."

FALCONER's fifth studio album, "Northwind" — the group's first since the departure of singer Kristoffer Göbel and return of Mathias Blad — was released last September via Metal Blade Records.
