A new dawn has come for Winterland. As you probably know, the band will soon come up to the Wildpath Studio to record its first album.

For this occasion, the band will change its name to Silent Fall. This announcement may certainly surprise a lot of you, but you have to reckon that this decision was hard to take because we are using this name since 2005. In fact, another Winterland, coming from Germany, exists, and has already released two albums. This band owns the rights on the name, and that's why we can't continue to use it. In brief, our music will stay the same and we'll continue to play the songs that you already know, but when the album is released, you have to look for us at the S letter instead of the W letter.

This change goes hand in hand with the arrival of a new guitar player, Pierre Cabannes. Olivier and I have known him for more than a year, and he owns all the technical and scenic abilities required. Here is the line-up of Silent Fall during the recording:

Adrien Eyraud - Vocals
Guillaume Tertis - Keyboards
Olivier Caron - Guitars
Pierre Cabannes - Guitars
Sylvain Rousselle - Bass Guitar
Fabio Carnielli - Drums

The album's name will be "Otherwise" and will include about ten tracks along with "Kill For Life", "I Wish", "World of Secrets" and "Forever and Ever". This album will be kind of traditional speed melodic metal, blended with some progressive and death melodic parts. Don't expect to find as before the tracks that you already know. They have all been revisited to give a unity to this album. Furthermore, three guests may appear on this album. We can't announce their names at the moment, but there should be a female singer, a keyboard player and a guitar player.

We'll give you more news as soon as possible. At the moment, just know that we'll be back on the road at the end of the year and that we'll try to release the album at
the same time. Finally, a new website will appear soon.
