Taraxes has launched a MySpace page where you can to hear two songs from the new album: "Tonight" and "Say". You can also get more information on the Taraxesweb site but it's still under construction.

Ciriaco Taraxes composed, or helped compose, the following Michael Kiske songs: "Somebody Somewhere", "Burned Out", "Hunted", "Time's Passing By" and "Do I Remember A Life?" from the "Instant Clarity" album; "Where Wishes Fly" and "Watch Your Blue" from the "Readiness To Sacrifice" LP; and finally "Reconsider" from the "Supared" effort.
