LEVERAGE: New Album Title, Track Listing Revealed; First Song Posted Online - Oct. 8, 2009

 

Finnish melodic metal band LEVERAGE will release its third full-length album, "Circus Colossus", on November 4 via Spinefarm Records. A song from the CD, "Legions Of Invisible", is available for streaming on the group's MySpace page.

 

"Circus Colossus" track listing:

 

01. Rise

02. Wolf And The Moon

03. Movie Gods

LEVERAGE's second album, entitled "Blind Fire", was released in the U.S. on October 21, 2008 via Blistering Records USA, Inc. with Ryko distribution.

 

LEVERAGE came out of nowhere in 2006, causing a stir with the release of its debut album, "Tides". The group's blend of modern metal sound and old-school, melody-based songwriting earned rave reviews from the media and created a fanbase both in Finland and throughout the rock community in many countries.

 

"The warm welcome for 'Tides' was a pleasant surprise for us," the band's guitar player and main composer Tuomas Heikkinen previously said. "We got good radio airplay in Finland, even climbed to the charts, all before our very first gig with our own material! Since then, we’ve played throughout Finland at clubs and festivals. Our music has been described as melodic metal or melodic heavy rock, which is fine by us."

 

LEVERAGE is:

 

Pekka Heino - vocals

Tuomas Heikkinen - guitar

Torsti Spoof - guitar

Pekka Lampinen - bass

Marko Niskala - keyboards

Valtteri Revonkorpi - drums

Many thanks for the info

[heavyharmonies]

Am listening through this for the first time. Epic and melodic at the same time!

 

This just might be their best yest. Need to digest and replay it a bit.

 

Fans of previous Leverage and BFT will NOT be disappointed.

By epic do you mean they drag their songs out longer than they need to be? Or is it epic as in awesome?

No, I don't mean 11-minute-long self-indulgent instrumental noodling.

 

Maybe "bombastic" is a better word than "epic"?

Cool. I've enjoyed their other two albums... hoping this one flattens them, though, with some big exciting moments.

[KarpetRydOFunk]
