A few days ago I stumbled upon a NEW release by the GREAT UNHERALDED band, Shadow Circus, called FROM THE SHADOWS. Been a fan of SC since the band' debut album in 2006, WELCOME TO THE FREAKROOM! After their last GREAT album, ON A DARK & STORMY NIGHT, they just kind of disappeared. So, It really was a shock to stumble across the new album. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
https://shadowcircus.bandcamp.com/album/from-the-shadowsShadow Circus returns! The first release since 2012's On a Dark and Stormy Night, this album finds the band revitalized with an all-star lineup. Exploring themes of horror, mythology, fairy tales and inner thoughts explored through macabre story-telling.
released October 31, 2023

A macabre hard prog and metal band featuring former members of Pain of Salvation and Devin Townsend Project, this supergroup delves into themes inspired by horror and sci fi. Often melodic, sometimes beautiful, sometimes brutal, always entertaining.
