Artist News: Saidian Signs Worldwide Deal With Blistering Records
May 29 marks the Blistering Records debut, and 3rd release overall, of German Melodic Metalers, Saidian with their new album, Evercircle! Founded in 2004 things moved rapidly in the Saidian camp as the guys released their debut album, For Those Who Walked The Path Forlorn the following year. This record was promoted by a full European tour with Jon Oliva's Pain. The Savatage mastermind liked the band so much he contributed guest vocals on their following album Phoenix, which was released in September 2006. Hitting the club and festival circuit, Saidian's meteoric rise peaked with an earth shaking performance at the first Magic Circle Festival in summer 2007. [Documented on the Magic Circle Festival DVD Vol. 1].
Now with the strongest lineup to date the band cut its blazing new album Evercircle. The recording took place between March - September of 2008 with the talents of German producer Axel Heckert, (now also Saidian's live engineer). Evercircle showcases a broader musical spectrum for Saidian including a mix of headbanging anthems, melodic rockers, powerful ballads and the band's first cover song, the 1981 hit, "Tokyo" from the German hard rock band of the same name (later known as Craaft). One listen to songs like the mystic "Solomon?s Dance," the powerful "Pale Moon Rider" or the barnstorming opener "Out Of The Shadows" & you?ll hear what the European festival scene has been raising their ale horns to for half a decade. Prost!
Upcoming Shows:
May 23 - Rockfabrik (Club 2), Ludwigsburg, Baden-W?rttemberg (Germany)
May 31 - Kutival Open Air, Bretten/ G?lshausen, Baden-W?rttemberg (Germany)
