Following the release of their acclaimed new album "Coal" via InsideOut Music, Norwegian Progsters LEPROUS are currently playing some summer festival shows (next up: India!) but also getting ready to embark on their so far most comprehensive tour this fall, which will be taking them through 24 European countries and also hit Japan.

 

Here is a list of all upcoming tourdates of LEPROUS.

 

LEPROUS - Festivals 2013:

UK death thrashers Arceye have posted part 1 of a 2 part studio blog which takes the viewer behind the scenes of “At First Light”, the bands upcoming new album.

 

Zarthas, the electrorockers from Oulu, Finland are back with their second album entitled “Spit/Ignite”. The album will be released via Violent Journey Records on June 7th 2013.

 

Finland's ODDLAND has just launched a guitar play-through for the track "Lines Of Silver Blood".

 

The band comments: "We decided to do the guitar play-through on this song because it probably has some of the most technical guitar parts of the album. We figured people might be interested to see how they´re played. The live guitar tracks were recorded on top of the album version, and Ville (our drummer) was in charge of shooting and editing the whole thing. Have a look, won't you"!

 

The Green Violinist start their debut album “More Thrill & Never Ending Blessings” dreamy, playfully, enchanting... From there, the music proceeds quietly flowing and full of wonderful harmonies. The songs will catch your attention. Vincent Defresne, leader and songwriter of the band, admits he was inspired by the painting by famous artist Marc Chagall 'The Green Violinist'. He managed to capture the spirit of the picture in an incredible way and to transfer it into music. The result is a wonderful collection of Neoprog-songs containing its fair share of acoustic moments (guitar, piano and violins). But the range goes further including electronic, almost trance-like songs that take you into another world.
