ICED EARTH: 'I Walk Among You' First-Week U.S. Sales Revealed

June 19, 2008

American heavy metal icons ICED EARTH have sold 1,450 copies of their new EP, "I Walk Among You", in the United States in the single's first week of release enough to land the EP at No. 2 on the Billboard Maxi Singles chart and No. 3 on the Billboard Top Singles chart.

"I Walk Among You" marks the long-awaited return of vocalist Matthew Barlow and is the precursor to the forthcoming full-length album "The Crucible Of Man (Something Wicked Part 2)", which is scheduled for release on September 9, 2008. The release features the single "I Walk Alone" along with two re-recorded tracks from "Framing Armageddon (Something Wicked Part 1)", featuring Barlow on vocals.

Following a series of European festival dates throughout the summer, ICED EARTH will embark on a North American tour in September.

ICED EARTH played its third show with vocalist Matt Barlow back as the group's frontman on May 11, 2008 at the Rock Hard Festival at the Gelsenkirchen Amphitheatre in Gelsenkirchen, Germany. Fan-filmed video footage of the performance can be viewed below.
