Jeff Loomis - To Release New Solo Material
Beyond the Dark Horizon recently spoke with guitar icon, Jeff Loomis of Seattle's long running Metal tyrants, Nevermore. Loomis spoke about Nevermore's latest release, The Obsidian Conspiracy, his solo endeavors, being a guitar icon and more. You can read the whole thing here.
When asked if Loomis is planning to release a follow-up to his solo album, he answered:
"Yes I do. I actually signed on for 2 more records and I'm working on the new one right now. There's still no title yet but I'm working on the music and hoping for a mid-winter release next year."
Loomis also had the following to say about the Sanctuary reunion:
"All I know at the moment is that Warrel wanted to get the band back together and do a couple of shows and I think we're going to do some festival shows. As far as a new record, I'm not quite sure if that's going to happen yet. That's actually still being talked about. But I can say that there will be a few Sanctuary festival shows over in Germany."

Exodus - New Video Online
"Downfall", the new video from San Francisco Bay Area metallers Exodus, can now be viewed below. The clip was helmed by SchneppZone director Jon Schnepp of Metalocalypse fame (y'know, the animated program about Dethklok on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim) and was shot on April 1 on the old set of the television sitcom "Night Court". In addition, it features animated sequences by Los Angeles-based traditional animator Jeremy Polgar.
About getting to work with Exodus again, Jon Schnepp stated: "I think their music is incredible and they always give me 100% at the video shoot. Working with these legends of thrash metal again has been a blast!"
"Downfall" is taken from the band's latest album Exhibit B: The Human Condition, released back in May.
(IMPORTANT: Viewers who are epileptic or prone to seizures are asked not to view this video due to its strobing effect!)

Pain Of Salvation - New Album In May, Samples Online
Original news, posted on 25.03.2010
Pain Of Salvation is tentatively scheduled to release its new album, Road Salt - Ivory, in Europe on May 19 via Insideout Music. Frontman Daniel Gildenlöw previously stated: "It is a 12-track album of sweaty grovel, asphalt butterflies, untreaded paths and brave decisions. It will be presented to the world in one standard edition and one limited director's cut, of which we, of course, recommend the latter one. See, as usual, we refuse to add some stuff haphazardly to put together a limited product ? we always see the larger version as the 'real' one; the one that makes us the proudest."
The cover artwork can be viewed here.
UPDATE (thanks to Arkaholic)
Pain Of Salvation has released five preview samples for the upcoming album Road Salt One. Click here to check them out.
Quoted the band: "For those who are curious about the album can listen to the unique preview tracks that have been uploaded to our website - already today, even though the album is not scheduled for release until mid-May!"

Nevermore - New Album In June
Original news, posted on 10.03.2010
Century Media Records has set a June 8 North American release date for The Obsidian Conspiracy, the long-awaited new album from Seattle metallers Nevermore.
The drum tracks for The Obsidian Conspiracy were completed in the group's hometown of Seattle with Soilwork guitarist Peter Wichers, who previously worked with Dane on the singer's solo debut, Praises To The War Machine. Longtime friend and collaborator Andy Sneap (Megadeth, Arch Enemy, Exodus, Machine Head) once again handled mixing duties.
The following songs (among others) were laid down during the recording sessions for the follow-up to 2005's This Godless Endeavor:
Emptiness Unobstructed
Without Morals
And The Maiden Spoke
Termination Proclamation
The Obsidian Conspiracy
The Blue Marble and the New Soul
She Comes in Colors
The Day You Built The Wall
Poison Throne
Beautiful Mistake
The Crystal Ship (The Doors cover)
Transmission (The Tea Party cover)
According to Dane, the song "And The Maiden Spoke" "is going to blow your minds; it's twisted, progressive lunatic fringe riffing with vicious hooklines." He added: "These songs are full of newfound rage, lyrically and musically. Jeff Loomis has come up with some amazing new riffs that will no doubt please old and new fans alike. Also, I think the combination of Peter and Andy will result in something very, very special."
UPDATE
Nevermore have revealed the cover artwork for their upcoming The Obsidian Conspiracy. The cover art was once again created by Travis Smith (Opeth, Katatonia, Amorphis), and can be viewed here.
Release dates:
Germany: May 28, 2010
Europe: May 31, 2010
North America: June 8, 2010
