GAIA EPICUS To Release New Album Via Own Label
December 6, 2006Norwegian power metallers GAIA EPICUS have posted the following message on their official web site:
"After having reviewed six offers for a new record deal, there was only two that could have been interesting to proceed, but we didn't go with any of these offers. For some time Thomas [Christian Hansen; vocals/guitar] has been thinking about the idea to start his own label, and now was the right time to try and do just that. So the new album will be released on his new label which is called Epicus Records. Release date for the [third] GAIA album ['Victory'] will be in the end of January or early February 2007. One more song from the new album can be heard at Epicus Records' MySpace page (three songs total)."
The cover art for "Victory" can be viewed at this location. The painting for the CD was created by J.P. Fournier, who was also responsible for the band's first album cover, "Satrap", in 2003.
"Victory" was recorded at Top Room Studios in Lunner, Norway. The track listing is as follows:
01. New Life
02. Iron Curtain
03. The Sign
04. Revenge is Sweet
05. In Memory
06. Awaken the Monster
07. Rise of the Empire
08. When Darkness Falls
09. Fortress of Solitude
