ROYAL HUNT: Video Footage From 'Collision Course' Recording Sessions Posted Online

April 15, 2009

Denmark-based hard rockers ROYAL HUNT have posted video footage (see below) from the recording sessions for their last album, "Collision Course - Paradox II", which was released in March 2008. The CD, which is said to be the conceptual follow-up to the 1997 release "Paradox", marked the recorded debut with the band of new vocalist Mark Boals, who has previously played with YNGWIE MALMSTEEN'S RISING FORCE, BILLIONAIRE BOYS CLUB and RING OF FIRE, among others. Guest singers on the album included Doogie White (RAINBOW, YNGWIE MALMSTEEN),Ian Parry (ELEGY, CONSORTIUM PROJECT),Kenny Lubcke (NARITA) and Henrik Brockmann (ex-ROYAL HUNT, EVIL MASQUERADE).

ROYAL HUNT is entering the very final stages of pre-production for its tenth studio album (the actual recordings will start by the end of this month). This time the band decided to revisit its roots and incorporate some of the musical values of the '70s into its songwriting as well as — in order to reinforce that particular atmosphere — employing mostly "retro" means of production (recording in analog format exclusively being one of them). The music has been described as "an interesting mix of what's been tagged as classic rock nowadays (established by KANSAS, GENESIS, ELP's earlier works and DEEP PURPLE, URIAH HEEP's classics from the same era) and ROYAL HUNT's trademark composition/delivery." The album is expected to be mixed/mastered sometime during the summer.
