THE ETERNAL To Play First Show Since Returning From Europe

March 8, 2005

Australian melodic doom metal band THE ETERNAL (formerly CRYPTAL DARKNESS) will play their first show since returning from Europe at the Duke of Windsor (179 Chapel St. Windsor) in Melbourne, Australia on Saturday, April 30 with TAILBONE, ALPHA STATE and NITIDUS. They will be unveiling two new members (Marty O'Shea on drums and Lincoln Bowen on guitar).

THE ETERNAL's debut album, "The Sombre Light of Isolation", has recently been licensed for release in Brazil, Russia & Asia, and was named second best Australian release of 2004 by Triple J's Andrew Haug, and voted fifth best Australian release of 2004 by listeners to his show, "Full Metal Racket". The band was also listed in Kerrang! magazine's "50 Most Wanted Bands" at the end of 2004.

Since their return from foreign shores, THE ETERNAL have written material for their second album, which they are currently recording in Palm Studios with Endel Rivers. The album is tentatively titled "Everlasting" and is due to be completed in April. It is scheduled for a September release through Firebox Records.

Production of a DVD centered on their Australian, Hong Kong and European tours is also nearing completion. Some concert footage and audio, as well as film, clips for the songs "Down" and "Crimson Sacrifice" is currently available for download from THE ETERNAL's web site, www.the-eternal.com.
