LIZZY BORDEN Shoots New Album Cover
April 10, 2007LIZZY BORDEN has shot the cover of its as-yet-untitled new album, due out the end of summer.
LIZZY is working with special-effects wizard and make-up artist Ralis Kahn. Although no details have been revealed, Ralis has designed the set and the look of the band based on the characters in the storyline of the new recording.
Famed metal photographer Alex Solca took well over a 1,000 shots in a two-day marathon, involving extras as well as the band (Lizzy, Joey Scott, Marten Andersson and Ira Black). At the end of the two-day shoot the set was literally set ablaze with flames shooting 30 feet into the air! And all captured on film.
"Because a lot of music is going straight to iTunes, we thought we would pay special attention to both the cover and the back cover and fill the inside of the CD booklet with tons of fun shots from this specialized photo shoot," commented the band's frontman and namesake Lizzy. "As we all know, very soon there will no longer be an actual CD to have a cool booklet for. Everything will go straight from the studio to your iPod, so we thought we would really do this one up right!"
Fifteen hours worth of video footage was also filmed during the two-day shoot.
In other news, LIZZY BORDEN has enlisted the services of SEVEN WITCHES/ex-SAVATAGE guitarist Jack Frost. Jack is coming on board to play the New England Metal and Hardcore Festival on April 28 as the second guitarist with Ira Black. Jack is also one of the "special guest" guitarists playing on the new LIZZY BORDEN record.
