Wassup!
After a couple of turbulent weeks we have now finally mastered our album.
When we listened to the finished product for the first time we all agreed that we were beyond satisfied with the result and can’t wait for you to hear it! We have also decided to post video teasers for you to enjoy, there will be a new “trailer” every month up until we release the damn thing and oh, the title for it is “ T O R N ” !
Complete tracklisting will be presented here as soon as we have decided what songs will end up on special editions and / or bonus tracks for singles etc.
Other than that I am glad to read that all of you seem to love our new Evergrey “EY” logo. It will look pretty cool on a shirt that’s for sure.
Tomorrow we play a show in Mariestad with our friends from All Ends so those of you who have the chance please stop by.
Summer festivals and tours for the fall are being booked as I write so be sure to check this area for all official confirmations. We will start rehearsing songs from TORN next week so MAYBE, and I mean maybe, we will play some of them in Finland in two weeks. Playing Finland is always a blast and it’s nice to be with people that can keep up with us on the booze . Both me and Jari have lot’s of relatives and friends coming out to the shows so that should be fun.
Tampere on the 19th and Helsinki on the 20th be sure to join in if you have the chance.
So enjoy the music combined with the fantastic photos courtesy of our friend René Asmussen http://www.reneasmussen.com/ - an award-winning Danish photgrapher who have graced us with his work which will be used in the booklet for ” TORN ” . That alone will be worth the money .
please let us know your feelings, ideas expectations after hearing what you now will hear.
Later

Hi again!!
I’ve been waiting long for these new message and video, and.. what can I say? There are no suitable words to describe such a fantastic work!!! All I can say is I totally agree one of the sentences of the vid: so breath taking…! Great sound, guys, and those photos…they’re simply amazing. Congratulations again!
The new logo? Awesome!! I’ll make sure to get one of those t-shirts with it =)
I can’t wait for it to be released, and for you to come on tour!!! See you in Madrid

You’re the best guys! Hail from ITALY!!!
March 1st, 2008 at 6:15 pm
Opppss…too excited: fastastic -> fantastic!
March 1st, 2008 at 7:01 pm
Wow. Congratulations guys - judging from what I’ve heard today you all have crafted another masterpiece. I’m also very excited to hear that you have a special edition with bonus tracks because I want all the Evergrey music I can get! Thanks for the teaser and if you’ll excuse me I think I’ll go spin the trailer a few more times.
March 1st, 2008 at 7:53 pm
Can’t wait for the concert in Portugal!
Javi is right … a monster has been created!
You’re making history!
March 1st, 2008 at 8:21 pm
Guys, I feel this album so great!!! you did a very good work, but much more metal than in the others albums … But I won’t repeat again what everyone is thinking of this album: AMAZING!!!!!
And I’m really happy cause I heard a keyboard solo!!! Dear Rikard, you’re really one of my idol!!
See you!
March 1st, 2008 at 8:43 pm
Truly a great piece of art! The songs and the feeling they created together with the imagery reminded me of the horror game Silent Hill. Amazing stuff that gets under your skin and doesn’t let go. Summer can’t come soon enough!
March 2nd, 2008 at 6:14 am
I can’t wait for this album. An excellent prog sound with some melo death thrown in. The new logo is great and summer seems too far away to get my hands on Torn. I hope to see you guys on tour here.
Staying Grey in Chicago, IL.

I didn’t want to watch it bcos I like to hear albums from start to finish in good quality b4 i hear mp3’s but i had too. It was AWESOME
March 2nd, 2008 at 8:09 pm
Oh. My. God.
I am at a loss for words.. words?! God, I can’t even move my arms to type here.. I’m shocked, I’m amazed and convinced of the fact that this is going to be the best Evergrey album ever.. and the album of the year.. what am I talking about?! One of the best albums ever written under the aegis of music history.. and now I need to find someone to hibernate me for the upcoming months, because I can’t wait to hear this masterpiece and spend long, neverending years with listening to it (without even stopping for a sec) and finally be buried with every single edition it is going to be released in.. ahh.. I’m done. I’m engaged to longing with this album as the ring:0)
Oh, and please come back to Hungary, because I just can’t die without seeing you at least once and I’m not planning to live forever, so.. please:0)
March 2nd, 2008 at 9:12 pm
Oh my GOD!!!!Fuckin’ unbelievable awesome shit!!!! Especially the first riff!!!!! And especially everything else…
It was worth waiting this month or two for this report!!!! I hope it will be the beginnig of the summer!!!
And I hope to see you in Germany, or maybe even in Berlin…
March 3rd, 2008 at 5:21 am
Just…speechless…..
I wasn’t sure if you would be able to trespass the perfectionism that Evergrey itself created but, I was wrong!!!
THIS ALBUM WILL BE ONE OF THE BEST ALBUMS EVER IN THE HISTORY OF HEAVY METAL!!!
Waitin for you in Brazil!!
March 3rd, 2008 at 5:52 pm
And old song was right about me : Words mean nothing… (for that TORN… It’s like building a wonder in Age of Empires… After it’ll built, the others are going to loose the game. EG will last forever!)
March 3rd, 2008 at 9:35 pm
It’s honestly hard to fathom the positive feelings about this one when I hear the samples (especially These Scars). Dunno, but to me it feels more like the old Evergrey, which I find amazing. Kind of In Search of Truth, but I’ve only had a few listens yet so we’ll see if I feel the same at midnight. I actually just registered to be able to provide feedback. It feels so good now!
March 4th, 2008 at 8:00 pm
OMG! It kick asses! I’ve addicted for TORN!
Another message “WAITING FOR GIG”
Warsaw is waiting! But see you at Czech Masters of Rock will be quite nice
March 5th, 2008 at 6:04 pm

Thanks guys it sounds really fantastic
Oops that’s more then 2, but what the hack I’m so excited

Cheers Muppie

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa,i can’t waiiiiiiit ;),I believe that will be the best Evergrey album eveeeeeeeeer,IT SOUND AWESOME
March 6th, 2008 at 7:51 pm
I’m just like all the ones who posted before me. But it’s so beautiful that i must say it again : it sounds so fucking good! For some days i just keep listening to it every time that i can. Thank you so much this is a gorgeous gift!
Of course i’ll buy the tee shirt with the logo. The logo is so excellent. It reflects so good the evergrey spirit.
See you somewhere in Alsace!
Hail! \m/

Can’t wait for the new album to drop in the states. If you can fit coming to Upstate NY. in your tour itinerary, the Armory in Albany would be really cool. We have had a lot of metal bands play there (i.e. Lamb of God, Avenged Sevenfold, etc…)
March 9th, 2008 at 5:56 pm
Sounds awesome! Can’t wait to hear more!
March 13th, 2008 at 10:27 pm
Awesome, these new songs have so much more depth to them. The melodies are gripping and the vocals don’t feel over done or out of place. The production quality seems great too! What can I say, I’m sold
March 14th, 2008 at 6:53 pm
That was AMAZING!! i am want your new album so bad!
After in flames you are my favorite band, but i think that after this album you will be in the first place with them.
From what i heard the album will be awesome! congratulation great work! I hope you make a tour in greece some day in the near future! Keep ROCKing!
