ITALIANO:
Nonostante sia stato mandato un bullettin svariate volte a tempo debito e rimossa la data dal MySpace della band, gira ancora la voce che FT suonerà con Esoteric questa Domenica a Milano, al Music Drome. Nonostante l'annunciata defezione di FT, Il flyer pubblicitario del concerto non è stato modificato e questa è probabilmente la causa principale del disguido. Come già spiegato precedentemente, la band non ha raggiunto un accordo soddisfacente con l' organizzazione riguardo a svariati punti, e quindi non ha confermato la propria partecipazione all' evento. Questa notizia è già stata diffusa da almeno 2 o 3 settimane. Di conseguenza, la line-up definitiva della serata sarà:

ESOTERIC (UK)
DARKSPACE (CH)
HIEMS (ITA) - Progetto solista di Algol dei Forgotten Tomb!
MALASANGRE (ITA)

Grazie per l'attenzione,
FT CREW

ENGLISH:
As announced 2 or 3 weeks ago already through several bullettins, directly sent from the Official FT MySpace, FT is NOT going to take part to the concert of Sunday in Milan, at Music Drome club. Regardless of the already announced absence of the band from the final bill of the concert, the concert-flyer wasn't modified and this situation probably led to the misunderstanding. As already explained before, the band didn't reach a satisfying deal with the organization regarding several points, then it decided to not confirm its presence for this event. As a consequence, the definitive bill for Sunday will be:

ESOTERIC (UK)
DARKSPACE (CH)
HIEMS (ITA) - Solo Project of Forgotten Tomb' bass-player Algol !
MALASANGRE (ITA)

Thanx for your attention,
FT CREW


Also, we take the chance to confirm the next show in Tivoli Terme, ROMA, at Dissesto Musicale club, on December 22. Here's the flyer of the event:

Satan Lives Fest II
Exclusive news today: Herr Morbid entered the german Dark Metal legends BETHLEHEM as the new guitar player!! This is the announcement, directly from the Official Bethlehem MySpace: "
We proudly present our new guitarist known as "Herr Morbid" of Forgotten Tomb. Bartsch and Morbid soon will start writing a new Bethlehem longplayer for 2008 which more will follow the dark path again, containing some more sick and disturbing ideas like once done on the 90s albums. All other informations who else will play on this record are given to a later date and arent relevant yet. First we have to collect some song ideas, so please dont bother bout possible vocal rumours or other useless things spred around in the underground at the moment. Thank you." Be prepared!!! §

NEWS - 12th, August 2007

There has been some confusion about the upcoming Belgium-gigs. For some still unknown reason, someone believed that FT was going to play in a Belgium city called Oostrozebeke, together with the bands Esoteric and Serpent Cult, on November the 3rd 2007. This news was spread on some forums and such, but it's completely untrue. Being myself the organizer of all the upcoming FT Tour, I can easily say that I never discussed a gig in that place with anyone, so I can't understand why people was going around saying that. Plus, on November 3rd the band is already booked to play Ellrich, Germany. So, to clear up the whole thing once and for all: 1- The band will play in Belgium ONLY for 1 gig on November 17th, at JH Kadee in Bornem, as headliners. This gig is already confirmed. 2- The band was NEVER meant to play with Esoteric and Serpent Cult in Oostrozebeke, Belgium, on November 3rd, so every rumour has to be considered totally unreliable. 3- For those interested in seeing FT and Esoteric playing on the same bill, a concert including both the bands is already confirmed for November 2nd in Arnhem, Holland, at The Goudvishal. For every news concerning new gigs, always check this website or our Official MySpace page at: www.myspace.com/darknessinstereo . §

Metal Shock AdGood morning bastards! Here a bunch of news for you.
First of all, for italian fans: an interview to Herr Morbid (done some months ago) was published on the new issue of Metal Shock magazine, available since July the 3rd 2007. Check it out!! § Pictures of the band taken in 2007 have been uploaded on the website in the "SEE" section. Additional pictures from the past years will be uploaded in the coming days! § After the successful gig at Festung Open Air 2007, the band will be soon invading Finland with 3 gigs as headliners!! All the gigs are confirmed, visit the "Worship" section to know more. The band is also announcing some tentative new gigs in Spain, Germany, The Netherlands and France for this Autumn, so stay tuned and be sure to get the chance to experience the true darkness in stereo Live, on the band's "Megalomania Across Europe Tour 2007"!! § The Official Merchandise of the band is being sold like hell recently, so we only have a few items left in stock. If you still don't own a FT T-Shirt/ LongSleeve/ Girlie-Shirt, be sure to visit the band' shop HERE and place your order!! Brand new merchandise with exclusive new designs will be printed soon too - both from Avantgarde Music and from the band itself - during July, then available since August. § Songwriting for the new album finally started to go towards the right direction, and it really looks like the new album is finally taking its malevolent shape. Expect tradition + innovation, and a lot of eerie, negative atmospheres. A tentative title has already been set, so the new album won't be self-titled as it was announced before. As predictable, also the other news spread some time ago are not to be considered reliable, since there are constant changes and evolutions in the songwriting every week. All we can say is that the fans won't be disappointed!! The official title of the new album will be announced this Autumn. §
