SINISTHRA Featuring AMORPHIS Frontman: Demo Completed; Band Seek New Label Home

March 6, 2006

SINISTHRA (formerly NEVERGREEN),the Finnish band featuring current AMORPHIS frontman Tomi Joutsen, have issued the following update via their official web site:

"Isn't it just bloody irritating when bands can't be bothered to update their webpages? Our excuse for not updating is.. err.. well, there just isn't that much to report at the moment. We are currently unsigned and have just recorded four new songs for demonstrational purposes. We'll start sending out the demos to record labels shortly with a message saying 'sign us or your family gets it' so in a perfect world it's only a matter of time before we land a satisfying deal.

"We're not planning on doing gigs for the time being. Tomi Joutsen is very busy touring with AMORPHIS for the next months so we'll concentrate on finishing the music for our planned second album. A few of us are also involved in a new band and will release a record before summer. More details of this band later on, or possibly not.

"We've received messages where people have expressed their concern regarding the future of SINISTHRA so here's the official statement, officially stated by the officials themselves: No need to worry. We've always been slow movers when it comes to putting together new music and although 50% of us are now committed to other bands as well it doesn't diminish our commitment to SINISTHRA in the slightest. There will be another SINISTHRA album, eventually, no matter what."

SINISTHRA's full-length debut, "Last of the Stories of Long Past Glories", was released in May 2005 via Arise Records. The CD was recorded in the summer of 2004 at Sonic Pump studios and features a sound best described as "metal with all the most common metal clichés removed," according to the group's official web site. A "teaser" MP3 containing audio samples from the CD can be downloaded at this location.
