| First of all: thank you all, fans! Lost in Midwinter's Neverland has sold over 100 000 copies worldwide since its releasing in August! The second thing is that I've made a little improvements to the site (index, header pic, contents etc.) and now it should satisfy everyone's needs! The third news is that I'll enter the studio during winter, probably in January! Reason for that is, as if you couldn't have guessed, that I've already started to work on compositions for my next exaggeratedly sumptuous and maginificiently brilliant studioalbum which'll be probably released during next spring or summer. I've improved my style a little more to progressive direction but still haven't forgotten my brand: symphonic elements. The album will again include an extremely solid concept and also some nuggets about the theme, hidden in compositions. You'll realize what I mean about the theme when you listen to my new creation carefully enough. I've also planned to start to release music under my personal nick Chimera or some other bandname (a couple alternatives were "Cryptica" or "Mystica", clichy enough, huh?) but let's see what I'll decide. To make music with no any limits caused by genre-describtions or band name is much easier but it'll cause a slight problem when you start to make name with your music. :) |

| The releasing date of my new magnum opus is finally decided - and it is tomorrow! I can assure you that you won't be dissappointed towards this new masterpiece of progressive symphonic epic metal. The abovementioned bonusalbum will include all of our majestic epics (+10min long rhapsodic songs) and it'll be first released with an edition of 5000 copies of Lost in Midwinter's Neverland, so it'll be a double-CD. Also a lot larger print of only the studioalbum will be released for them who're not interested of the bonus album and an edition of only the bonus album will also be released after a short while. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| I'm planning to release a single from my new forthcoming album Lost in Midwinter's Neverland. It will carry a title "When the Godresses of Netherworld Confront" and it is a bit exceptional single because it contains no other songs than a 11-minute-long epic. It'll thus fill quite an optimal length for a single record and the same rhapsodic song will also be found from the new forthcoming album. The single will be a magnificient prelude which'll lead you to mystic cold midwinter's vortex and the dead garden of the north...Releasing date of that single is 20.5.2005, so, what are you waiting for? Let's form some queues! Releasing date of the main album is still unknown. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| My (yes, I'll create it all by myself) new album has been under construction since the releasing of "VII - Dreams of The Shrouded Past" but I'm not going to announce the releasing date because I'm just not sure at all! And I'm not willing to create any schedules which'll do nothing but cause more pressure and stress. :| But are you ready to confront the name of the forthcoming release? It's Lost in Midwinter's Neverland. I guess that I don't even have to mention that this will be the most monumental and bombastic creation of mine this far. Every sound and instrument will be played and mixed as majestically and perfectly as ever possible. Nearly in impossibly magnificient way! The theme which has yet been unveiled will lure you in the unbelievable sonic landscapes of enchanted nordic wastelands where the main events of the theme will take place. Stay tuned! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
