THUNDERSTONE: 13-Minute 'Rockumentary' Available For Download
July 24, 2008Finnish metallers THUNDERSTONE have posted a 13-minute "rockumentary" featuring behind-the-scenes footage from the songwriting/demo sessions for the band's fifth studio album. The clip features "lovely Finnish countryside, drunk (and very intelligent) Swedes and Finns, and a whole lotta riffs!" according to the band. Download it at this location (Quicktime file, 59 MB).
THUNDERSTONE recently announced the addition of singer Rick Altzi from Sweden to the group's ranks. Rick has contributed his wonderful voice to many metal albums, most recently with German group AT VANCE (a band which he is still a member of).
Last August saw THUNDERSTONE part ways with vocalist Pasi Rantanen and keyboard player Kari Tornack, leaving fans wondering about the future of the band. The group, however, did not rest on its heels and did a full European tour in October-December, recruiting vocalist Tommi "Tuple" Salmela from TAROT and keyboardist Jukka Karinen. The temporary lineup created a flood of speculation, which has been put to rest with the announcement of the band's new formation.
On the keyboards the band enlisted Jukka Karinen, who already handled the keyboard duties on the European tour.
