Background information
[edit]In an interview with Australian underground magazine Death Before Dishonour, Jamie Hope revealed that at the time of lead singer Damien Morris' death the band was working on their debut album, as a result the album will feature three tracks with Damien on vocals and the rest with Jamie Hope. He also revealed that the album will feature a slew of guest vocals from Brandan Schieppati of Bleeding Through, Hernan Hermida of All Shall Perish, Karl Schubach of Misery Signals and Dan Weyandt of Zao.[3]
In the same interview, Hope also revealed Damien Morris' concept for the album: "...an epic tale of the forces of heaven and hell battling for the supremacy on the battleground of planet earth".[3]
