KAMELOT recently spent time at various studios — including the Gate Studio in Wolfsburg, Germany — under the watchful eye of Sascha Paeth and Miro as producers working on the highly anticipated follow-up to "Ghost Opera". A spring release is expected.

"The new songs are really inspiring," stated guitarist Thomas Youngblood. "We feel the long touring and time away from writing has been perfect for new ideas and an aggressive approach to the new songs."

Bassist Glenn Barry left KAMELOT in December and was replaced by Sean Tibbetts.

KAMELOT will tour Europe with LEAVES' EYES in March and April 2010.
