Falconer - New Album In The Works
The following update has been posted on the official Falconer website:
"Hi folks!
Now we have all the new songs for the next album written. There's just the finishing touches left to do. We will start recording around christmas this year and then mix it in May 2008. Faster and more complex than the last album is a quite good description I would say.
The 3rd birth has happened within Falconer in a year as Magnus got a little son.
All shirts are sold out now and we're looking for companies to handle the printing and selling of the official merchandise in the future. As long as it is a fair deal it's interesting. We'll see what happens.
Until then, take care!
Stefan / 12th of October '07"
