As previously reported, PLATITUDE recently parted ways with keyboardist Andreas Lindahl.

PLATITUDE's sophomore album, "Nine", was released in April 2004 through Italy's Scarlet Records. The follow-up to 2003's "Secrets of Life" was recorded at Jailhouse Studios with producer Tommy Hansen (HELLOWEEN, PRETTY MAIDS) and features cover artwork by Mattias Norén.
