Blazon Stone - New Album Update


After saying the band was on hold, Blazon Stone'a mastermind Ced has posted several updates on the band's new album.

He said: "Lead vocals are finished. If anybody wonders, Erik Forsberg (Down In The Dark/War Of The Roses) has been hired to record studio vocals once more. He's a fantastic vocalist, but he's not back in the back for real. We don't need to go into details about why. I keep looking for somebody who can vigorously front Blazon Stone in the future.

"Today I will put fresh strings on the bass and record all songs. Next couple of days/weeks I will spend on recording drums. That does NOT mean I will change my live position to play drums live. Blazon Stone needs a high-grade drummer to play live. I can handle drums in my own studio where I can do as many takes as I want per song, but I don't practice drums enough to be proficient enough for live shows, I have too high demands for that. I keep looking for a suitable drummer..-

"I previously mentioned 'album and EP' but after revaluating all the songs, some of them just wasn't good enough so I scrapped them, and instead merged all the remaining material into a longer album, possibly the longest Blazon album so far! So personally I think it's a good decision. This goes for the 'Greece handout', I will handout the album. So please don't ask 'but if you make another EP in the future, will I get that?' no, that will not happen. This is not a 'cheap out' decision, it's a decision to make sure you get the best possible songs I can give at the moment. No point in cranking out all songs I can when I noticed some just doesn't cut it, right?

"I will announce it when it's available. The recordings aren't even finished yet, so hold your horses!"

"All my solos for upcoming Blazon Stone album finished! This is first time having another guitarist on a Blazon Stone album, shred master Emil Westin Skogh (you know him from Rocka Rollas) will record some solos too!"

Suppose he meant that only the band's live playing activity is on hold and studio activity isn't.

Hi, Cederick from Blazon Stone here, I wanna clarify something. I undertsand it's confusing for outsiders.

Yes, the band is on hold from playing live.
I'm looking for a singer, drummer and bass player.

During the summers gig I hired Twilight Force/Bloodbound drummer, and singer from Antham. And after that the bass player left after a misundertanding from his part, but I explained to him (he thought he was kicked out because of a "thank you list" after the summers gigs, but that was a thank you list to all involved in Blazon so far, there was nothing saying he was kicked out, but he seemed to take it that way) oh well everything is fine between us, but he still left the band. I wish he was still with but I guess he has plenty to do with his other bands as it is already, so all is good.

The album right now is being recorded by Erik Forsberg (Down In The Dark / War Of The Roses) but I have no intentions on bringing him back into the band for good, it just wouldn't work in the long run.

So yeah I understand this is confusing for fans.
But I do make updates, and explain things on my FB page, so all information is there, but I understand if somebody misses one thing, they can completely misunderstand the situation completely. While it's frustrating that I have to keep explaining the situation over and over to people, I know they cannot spend their entire days analyzing the current situation of Blazon Stone or whatever other band I have.


But things like when reviewers said that Erik Forsberg is my brother (just because we have the same names) thats really fucking anoying because that spreads and I've seen it in live reviews and other places after that... I NEVER KNEW ERIK before War Of The Roses.

If anybody has any questions about anything to make anything about the situation more clear (I'm surprised people is actually interested and talking about this on the internet hahaha!) I will happily answer it
