LEATHERWOLF Commence Work On New Album

October 8, 2005

Southern California metal stalwarts LEATHERWOLF have issued the following update:

"We're heading over to Joe Floyd's new place in the South Bay to track more vocals with Wade [Black, ex-CRIMSON GLORY, SEVEN WITCHES] this weekend. Joe, of course, is the mastermind behind the legendary WARRIOR (remember 'Fighting for The Earth'?) and has had a hand in modern-day classics such as HALFORD's 'Resurrection' and 'Crucible' as well as BRUCE DICKINSON's 'Accident of Birth' and 'The Chemical Wedding'. He is a true metal master and we are looking forward to working with him over the next few days. We also had Eric Halpern from HELSTAR come in to lay down a couple of leads and he just smoked! Our former vocalist, Michael Olivieri, has also contributed some guitar and is helping out on backing vocals. Awesome!"

"Last but not least, we just got the first final — or close to — mixes in from Denmark. After doing a test mix of 'Behind the Gun' for us, we decided to go with Jacob Hansen [RAUNCHY, ROB ROCK, MERCENARY] at Hansen Studios [in Ribe, Denmark] who was able to fit LEATHERWOLF into his extremely busy schedule. Jacob is phenomenal and we are totally stoked with what he's come up with so far. Can't wait for you all to hear these little mosters! Plans are to trek on over to Denmark tag team-style in December to be present when Sir Hansen tackles the rest of the songs for the final mixdown and the mastering. We've also started the dialogue with the industry to find the proper outlets for the album in the different territories. We are shooting for a spring '06 release."
