NARNIA Issues Update On Singer Search
May 28, 2008Swedish epic/melodic metallers NARNIA who recently parted ways with singer Christian Liljegren have issued the following update:
"Wooow! What can we say? We didn't know what to expect, but we've been in touch with so many great singers out there, all with great voices in different ways. Thank you all for your interest. I hope you all got a reply in one way or another!
"For now, we need to slow down, sit back and listen, and consider what step to take next. If more singers are interested, please feel free to contact us, but we want to be very honest and say that over some time ahead, we can not PROMISE you a reply for time reasons (even though we promise to read everything).
"Again thank you all very much for taking time sending us encouraging messages and big thanks to all singers that have contacted us!"
NARNIA recently began recording its sixth studio album with producer Fredrik Nordstrm (Studio Fredman).
NARNIA last year posted a newly recorded song, "In His Majesty's Service" on their MySpace page. The track was originally written and recorded by the Swedish band JERUSALEM back in 1985. NARNIA's version of the song is featured on the group's 10th-anniversary "best of" album, "Decade of Confession", which was released this past summer via Massacre Records.
NARNIA's most recent collection of all-new material, "Enter the Gate", was released in April 2006 via Massacre. The CD, which was released in Japan on March 23, 2006 via Attic Arcade/Gencross, was described by the band as "the most well-sounding and well-performed NARNIA album to date." The follow-up to 2003's "The Great Fall" features backing vocals by Mats Leven (THERION, YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, AT VANCE) and contains "the most melodic and catchy songs since 'Long Live the King' from the late '90s but in a brand new sound and approach," according to the band.
