FREEDOM CALL: 'DIMENSIONS' COVER ART REVEALED

German melodic metallers FREEDOM CALL have posted the cover artwork for their new album, 'Dimensions', at this location.

Due in Europe on April 23 (except Germany, where it will arrive on April 20) via SPV Records, 'Dimensions' is a 'successful liaison of the group's basic strengths and new, contemporary influences,' according to a press release. Or, as drummer Daniel Zimmermann puts it, 'Even if the two predecessors, 'Eternity' and 'The Circle Of Life', took very different directions, both albums had a number of strong moments. 'Dimensions' combines the most successful elements from both albums, in other words: we included our penchant for fast and very melodic numbers from 'Eternity' with the more contemporary, bombastic components of 'The Circle Of Life'.'

Four of the 11 songs on 'Dimensions' were penned by the band's latest additions, Lars Rettkowitz (guitar) and Armin Donderer (bass); the other seven were written and composed, as usual, by Chris Bay and Daniel Zimmermann.

Most of 'Dimensions' was recorded at the FC studios in Nuremberg. The drum parts were cut at the Area 51 in Celle by Daniel Zimmermann with the help of Tommy Newton (HELLOWEEN, KAMELOT, VICTORY), who also mixed and mastered 'Dimensions'. The cover artwork was designed by Paul Raymond Gregory (SAXON, MOLLY HATCHET, BLIND GUARDIAN).

'Dimensions' track listing:

01. Demons Dance
02. Innocent World
03. United Alliance
04. Mr. Evil
05. Queen Of My World
06. Light Up The Sky
07. Words Of Endeavour
08. Blackened Sun
09. Dimensions
10. My Dying Paradise
11. Magic Moments
12. Far Away

FREEDOM CALL will support DRAGONFORCE on a short U.K. tour in April.
