September 9, 2009

DARKOLOGY, the Texas-based band featuring guitarist Michael Harris (VITALIJ KUPRIJ),drummer Brian Harris (ex-FIREWIND),bassist Mike Neal and vocalist Kelly "Sundown" Carpenter (BEYOND TWILIGHT, OUTWORLD),has signed a worldwide deal with an as-yet-undisclosed record label. The group's forthcoming debut album, entitled "Altered Reflections", is described in a press release as "riffy metal with face-melting solos, thunderous drumming and howling vocals."

In related news, Carpenter has contributed vocals to the metal concept project "Samuel Arkan's Origins", which is nearing completion. The singer states, "It's a powerful album with a great story and features a host of well known artists from bands such AYREON, VIRUS IV, THUNDERSTONE, DIAL, PAIN OF SALVATION and more."

Carpenter is one of the guest singers who will perform with Florida melodic metallers CRIMSON GLORY during their headlining set at the ProgPower USA X festival on September 11, 2009 at the Center Stage in Atlanta, Georgia.

"This is truly exciting, as it is rare to be given such a unique opportunity to show respect and admiration for one of my favorite artists," says Kelly. "On this very special night, myself and many other vocalists from the metal community will pay tribute to the late and great Midnight [CRIMSON GLORY singer]!"

Midnight passed away on Wednesday, July 8 from "total kidney and liver failure." He was 47 years old.
