THRESHOLD To Support WITHIN TEMPTATION In Holland

October 9, 2007

THRESHOLD will support WITHIN TEMPTATION for a one-off show in Holland on November 24 to a sold-out crowd of around 8,000 people.

WITHIN TEMPTATION invited THRESHOLD for the November show after seeing them at this year’s Earthshaker Fest in Germany.

THRESHOLD will headline two UK festivals in October and November before heading out to Holland for the WITHIN TEMPTATION show.

The THRESHOLD song "Pilot in the Sky of Dreams" will be included on the movie soundtrack for "In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale", due for general release in January 2008.

The movie is directed by Uwe Boll ("Postal", "House of the Dead") with a strong cast including Jason Statham ("Revolver", "The Italian Job"),Leelee Sobieski, Ray Liotta and Burt Reynolds.

THRESHOLD will release its first-ever "best-of" collection in November, featuring over 140 minutes of music from all their studio albums plus three previously unreleased single versions. Entitled "The Ravages of Time (The Best of Threshold)", the two-disc set will be issued by the band's previous label Inside Out Music on November 20 in the U.S. (one day earlier internationally). The track listing was selected by the band in conjunction with the label. "The decision to include the unreleased single edits was because we know there are a lot of fans who are frustrated when there are edits made but not available on CD," commented keyboardist Richard West. "Of course there wasn't room for everything but between us we thought it was a good overall list." The album will include unreleased radio edits of material from their latest album "Dead Reckoning" released on Nuclear Blast. The artwork for the collection was designed by Thomas Ewerhard, who was responsible for many of THRESHOLD's previous album covers, including the iconic "Hypothetical" and "Subsurface". The new cover was originally created for the band's previous album when it had the working title of "Pilot in the Sky of Dreams". The 24-page booklet will include a new biography written by Trevor Raggatt.

The band plans to record a new live DVD soon and recently recorded a concert during its European tour for possible release.

Fan-filmed video footage of THRESHOLD's September 1, 2007 concert at Plato in Helmond, the Netherlands has been posted below.
