THE ETERNAL To Work With THE TEA PARTY's JEFF MARTIN On New Album

November 4, 2009

Fresh from their 2009 world tour across Australia, Japan Europe, America, Canada and Mexico in support of their album "Kartika", Melbourne's dark rockers THE ETERNAL will enter 301 Studios in Byron Bay on December 4 with acclaimed producer and multi-platinum recording artist Jeff Martin (THE ARMADA, THE TEA PARTY) to record their fourth album.

Having returned from the tour with the band's strongest lineup to date, guitarist/vocalist Mark Kelson states that the new album has a clear vision that will evolve THE ETERNAL's sound to a new level with the collaboration of producer Jeff Martin. "We are really excited about this opportunity to work with Jeff Martin who has been a big influence on me over the years and I can't think of any one better to bring the best out of us and our sound," he said. "This is truly a highlight for me as far as THE ETERNAL is concerned."

Jeff Martin adds: "Ladies and gentlemen, I proudly re-introduce THE ETERNAL... The type of band I've been waiting to produce. It's been a year now since Mark and I agreed to embark on a journey that begins this December. For THE ETERNAL this will not be a stepping stone but a launch pad. For me, a creative working relationship that allows me to realise an artist's vision and re-connect with past influences, all the while looking into the future...darkly. I envision an alchemical marriage, a musical landscape anchored by organic rock and roll and infested with industrial overtones. To put things lightly, you're not playing with kids here. THE ETERNAL are the real deal."

The as-yet-untitled album will be co-engineered by Paul Pilsneniks who has worked with such artists as THE LIVING END, THE MARS VOLTA, SILVERCHAIR, GRINSPOON and ALANIS MORISSETTE, and THE ETERNAL has also enlisted acclaimed Finnish keyboard player Maria Ilmoniemi (TARJA, HUSKY RESCUE) to contribute.

The CD will see the light of day in 2010.
