Secrets Of The Moon Announces Full-Time Guitarist
Secrets of the Moon vocalist sG has issued the following update about their live guitarist Ar becoming a full member of the band:
"After nearly 60 shows with this guy we can assure that he's the right person for this job. We always wanted the band to be complete again but we were careful. He went through a lot of highs and lows, through darkness and light with us. He succeeded and became a grand fellow. The time has come to offer him a permanent position within our circle. welcome!
"I started working on on the follow-up of 'Privilegivm' (working title: seven bells). We are going to enter the studio in summer 2010. I feel it will become a very special album for the band. Much is going to change, much is getting even deeper and disruptive. We are alive. Moreover I worked on some special releases with Stefan Belda (Prophecy Productions). People might not believe in the releases of 'Antithesis' and 'The Ambience of a dead star' on our all-beloved format any longer but it's going to happen soon. And there's even one more oddity to be released. Everything occurs at the right time..."

Secrets Of The Moon Issues Tour Recap
German black metallers Secrets of the Moon have issued the following recap of their recent tour dates alongside Moonspell:
"Friends & foes,
"After nearly 50 shows we played across this planet I am back home, feeling utterly dead in the most positive sense. the past two months have been an amazing, yet really raw experience for the band. Ups and downs, sickness, storm, no calmness. we spent the last month touring North America and Canada with Moonspell and Divine Heresy. Both bands are truly professional and cool guys. We salute them and our fantastic crew (cartel - tourmanager, phil - stagehand, ringo - busdriver and most important: the amazing jorge pina for his massive technical support!).
"Moreover we want to thank all the fans (present and future) that we met out there, that believe in what we are doing. It's been groundbreaking experience to meet people on the other side of planet earth so familiar with and dedicated to our music... an excuse to the people in kansas city and denver, whose i couldn't bring forth 100% due to the flu that hit me. Actually i don't have any memories from these shows besides for lying dead in my bunk.
"What is to come until the end of the year? nothing but creating music. a new album is already in the making, too many ideas storm our minds these days... We'll be back with another european tour in spring 2010, heading out to some countries we've never brought our sickness before. watch out!"

Divine Heresy Comments On Tour With Moonspell
As was previously announced, Samael have dropped off the upcoming North American tour with Moonspell and have been replaced by Divine Heresy. Also appearing on the bill are Book of Black Earth and Secrets of the Moon.
Commented Divine Heresy guitarist Dino Cazares: "We have been waiting patiently for the perfect touring opportunity to present itself and we couldn't possibly be more pleased to be direct support to the mighty MOONSPELL this fall. This North American tour is exactly what we were looking for as we wanted a chance to perform in front of a lot of new faces that might not have been exposed to our band. This tour marks the kick-off of a massive worldwide touring campaign to support the new 'Bringer of Plagues' album. DIVINE HERESY is better than ever and we are embarking on this tour with only one, simple goal in mind: to annihilate everything in our path. Expect an unrelenting set and if your jaw isn't on the floor when we finish, then we haven't done our job, but that won't be the case. Be sure to come by the merch booth each night to say hello to us all and we look forward to seeing everyone soon. It's certainly been way too long."

There is one more song added to the prior posted list and its name is "sulphur pulse". we will record a cover song of a well-known band as well, so there is plenty of material to be recorded with a running time of approx. 80 minutes.
Moreover there are some festival shows to be confirmed and new websites will be launched sooner or later. So there is a lot to come.
