Band Bio: EDEN´S CURSE make an unexpected yet triumphant return with their sophomore release “The Second Coming”.
Once again production duties are handled by Pink Cream 69 bassist and much sought-after Producer Dennis Ward (Krokus, Silent Force, Debauchery, Angra) as the band have truly "upped the ante" in terms of song writing, performance and production. This is simply going to be a monster of a release that will build upon the success of the self titled debut album. Many in the industry feel this album alone by itself will now cement the arrival of EDEN´S CURSE as truly a name to be reckoned with!
Assisting Michael Eden (Vocals), Thorsten Koehne (Guitar), Paul Logue (Bass), Pete Newdeck (Drums) and Ferdy Doernberg (Keys) in creating this huge wall of sound is none other than the voice of TNT, Starbreaker, Westworld and now a solo artist - Tony Harnell who sings backing vocals on the entire record.
Doogie White (Rainbow, Yngwie Malmsteen, Cornerstone, Empire) once again returns to the aid the “Curse Choir” along with the ever present Carsten Schulz (Evidence One, Midnite Club, Roger Staffelbach’s Angel Of Eden).
Also featured is vocalist Pamela Moore best known for her performance as Sister Mary on Queensrÿche's 1988 epic release "Operation: Mindcrime" and 2006's sequel "Operation: Mindcrime II", who duets with Michael Eden on the incredible Power Metal Anthem "Angels & Demons".
Frontman Michael Eden comments "With the assistance of Dennis Ward, the “Curse Choir” and our personal graphic artist Thomas Ewerhard (Asia, Edguy, Avantasia, Jorn, Masterplan) and the amazing talent of his photographer of choice Steffi Veenstra (Doro, Tankard, Vanden Plas) I believe EDEN´S CURSE are ready to ignite even the biggest melodic naysayer. My boys and I will deliver an ass kicking few have seen in a decade or more for our type of music, and that I'll lay our reputation on. Trust me when I say ... EDEN´S CURSE will deliver the goods like very few can in 2008. There is good, there is great and then there is freaking amazing! You be the judge. The music will do the talkin' in October!!".
Bassist Paul Logue adds “I always said that the success of EDEN`S CURSE would be judged on whether we deliver a second album or not and here we are a mere 14 months later with a brand studio record! Now it’s time to take this to the STAGE! Promoters take note!”
In late August 2007 the Rock and Metal world witnessed the birth of EDEN`S CURSE, a multi-national Melodic Metal group with its members spanning four countries and two continents. Formed in January 2006 by chief songwriter and Bassist and Scotsman Paul Logue and United States born and bred Vocalist Michael Eden, these two musicians hatched a plan to form a group utilizing the wonders of modern technology and in particular the world wide web. Armed with nothing but passion, spirit and an uncompromising batch of hyper rock songs they found Guitar virtuoso Thorsten Koehne and Drummer Pete Newdeck, before experienced Keyboard player Ferdy Doernberg completed the lineup in June 2006.
With heavy weights such as Dennis Ward and band colleague David Readman of Pink Cream 69, as well as Doogie White and Carsten Schulz in their corner, the group signed to AFM Records and their album not only burst but more like exploded onto the scene in late August 2007 to critical acclaim.
The group faired extremely well in the 2007 end of year votes throughout the global Rock & Metal press with the highlights being voted Best Newcomer of 2007 by RockUnited.Com readers, Best Metal/Prog Album 2007 by MelodicRock.com and Thorsten Koehne being awarded Guitarist Of The Year 2007, also by MelodicRock.com.
If 2007 was the birth then 2008 is the baptism and we aren’t talking about a glass of bubbly, a slice of cake and a cuddle of the baby here folks! This bombastic volume alone will cause wimps to scatter like cockroaches under a spotlight!
