KIUAS: 'The New Dark Age' Lands On Finnish Chart

March 20, 2008

"The New Dark Age", the third album from Finnish power metallers KIUAS, has entered the official chart in the band's home country at position No. 10.

An e-card for "The New Dark Age" is available at this location. The CD will be released in the UK on May 12 and in USA and Japan in June.

According to the band, "The [album's] cover art is the product of the visionary artist/musician Niklas Sundin (Cabin Fever Media). The picture is an original drawing in the style of reneissance woodcut illustrations, and portrays the members of KIUAS as the four or in this case five horsemen of the Apocalypse with a dismal landscape that combines ancient and modern times."

A video for the song 'Conqueror' was shot on February 18 with Owe Lingvall of Village Road Film and can be viewed below.

"Of Sacrifice, Loss and Reward", the new single from KIUAS, recently entered the single chart in the band's home country at position No. 1.

KIUAS' second full-length album, "Reformation", was released in May 2006.

KIUAS is:

Ilja Jalkanen - Vocals
Mikko Salovaara - Guitars
Markku Nreneva - Drums
Atte Tanskanen - Keyboard
Teemu Tuominen Bass
