"The Tuoni Pathway" is scheduled for release in April 2010 via U.K.'s Femme Metal Records. The CD will feature a guest appearance by Roope Latvala of CHILDREN OF BODOM.
Commented SOULGRIND guitarist Lord Heikkinen: "We have done the best album to date, only some very final touches on mixing to do and it is done. Nine tracks of beauty, heaviness and darkness.
"It took two months to complete and we had some hard times and some fun times.
"Overall, it is a one helluva album.
"Single shall be available in early January. We might do a CD single, but at least a web single with covers shall be available then. Also video for 'The Call Of Dancing Waters' has been done. Cutting is on its way and it should be finished early 2010."
