Phoenix, Arizona – 01/05/2018 – Images of Eden is releasing their first single, “Shield Me” on January 5, 2018 as an unsigned band while they shop record labels for a 2018 release of their full length CD, titled “Soulrise”, the long-awaited follow up to the 2011 release of “Rebuilding The Ruins” on Nightmare Records. The brand new album “Soulrise” was just recently completed December 2018 and was Produced by the legendary Bill Metoyer at Skull-Seven Studios in Hollywood, Ca. and is ready for pressing. When asked why there was such a delay between releases, vocalist Gordon Tittsworth replied, “There were so many changes within Images of Eden, lineup and beyond, that it took some time to reform and regain our bearings. But, I can assure our fans that this is the strongest, most solid lineup ever and there will no longer be long delays in between releases. We even have the follow up album to ‘Soulrise’ well on its way.” The music video is set to be unveiled at the same time of the track's release which will feature a new, fine-tuned lineup of Images of Eden with a huge video production as well as a more modern, updated sound. Tittsworth also states, “Our songwriting has evolved far beyond where I felt we were in 2011 and before. The earlier Images of Eden releases were primarily progressive hard rock/ metal, but our natural vibe/ feel has much more of a heavier, modern edge to it now, but still with our classic hard rock/ metal roots. We feel our sound is more accessible now to new fans and also to our current fan base. You will still know it is Images of Eden right away.” Manager Steve Dorssom promises this latest news is only the tip of the iceberg with a new record label search underway, and that the band has already completed the writing for the 5th release, tentatively titled, “Angel Born” and will be recording the album over the course of 2018 alongside the release of “Soulrise” and 2018 supporting tour. Fans should expect to hear even bigger news from Images of Eden in the very near future, and should check in at the band's official website and social media for the latest announcements.
