Visions Of Atlantis Prepares To Hit The Recording Studio

Austrian metallers Visions of Atlantis have issued the following statement about recording a new album:

"Hey Guys and Girls!

"After 2 months without any message from the Band here are some News wich may interest you

"FIRST the most important thing: Our bassist Mike and his Girlfriend will become parents very soon and we all want to wish them the best with their little rocker. But that leads directly to some bad news: Mike will leave the band and will take a baby-break from music so that he can focus on his new role as father a 100%. We all understand his decison completely and so we had a last big party last weekend where we played a little gig with a handful of invited close friends to release Mike in his Baby-Break. If and when he will return to the band is completely unsure at the moment which is also clear and we (the whole Voa-Family) hope that you out there will understand Mike and also wish him the best!!!

"This will have NO AFFECT on the recording process for our forthcoming album, which leads me to the next hot news: Maxi Nil does a great job in singing in the stuff for pre-production and except some very little stuff and some last guitar details finally everything is recorded now and in November we..ll enter the studio to record our fourth album finally. Very soon we will announce the studio for our new recording and we also got a name for our fourth album, but this is still secret and just no secret within the band ;-)

"As soon as there are news and details about Studio in November and all other things concering the band and what..s going on with VoA we..ll be back with a new blog... So stay tuned, because when we..re in studio we..ll keep you informed by every possible ways (video, studio-diary, pics, etc.) directly from the band ;-) Best wishes, and as promised...2010 will be THE year for VoA as everything seems to turn out good finally!!!!!"
