October 3rd, 2006 | Comments are closed Hey everyone, Today is a special day because it is the release date of our 4th album “The Scattering Of Ashes”. We are so proud of this album. It’s full of high energy songs with lots of crazy singing and fast playing! We hope you all enjoy the new record! I’m sad to say that this amazing tour is almost over. Things have never been better in the Into Eternity camp. All the fans have been showing tons of support for us and for that we are really thankful. The shows have been going great and we have met a ton of really nice people along the way. Tonight in Portsmouth, VA is a special show for us. The lineup looks like this… Tomorrow will be a historical show for us. We are direct support to Megadeth! Here are the show details for OCTOBER 4/06: 2390 W AVIATION AVE The whole band is blown away by this chance to play a one off show with the masters themselves!! Hopefully we’ll see everyone tomorrow and don’t forget to pick up the new record! Keep it metal TIM September 28th, 2006 | One comment - (Comments are closed) Century Media: Currently performing on Megadeth’s Gigantour 2006, Canada’s technically aggressive metal band Into Eternity, have posted their third YouTube guitar lesson here. The new lesson, a guide to playing the rhythm guitar parts from their new song “Nothing”, is as entertaining as it is instructional. The song is taken from their Oct. 3rd release, “The Scattering Of Ashes”, which has already been called “a landmark triumph” by Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles. Additionally, listen to Tim talk about the new album, the band’s performance, album artwork and more on the downloadable Podcast interview at The Metal Observer here.

Being on the road with Megadeth, this band has had multiple highs and spiraling lows as well. My best friend Dave Stephenson died, out of nowhere of cancer. Today is his funeral and I am away from home and won’t be there for him one final last time. For this I am truly sorry! I feel terrible for this. Dave would have been out here with us selling our merch for us. Every night I am dedicating a song to his memory. The shows have been a dream come true for us. I cannot believe how nice the staff and the other bands have been to us. Having Lamb of God give us props on stage to 7,000 people was a highlight for us. Megadeth has been very good to us. It is great to hang everyday with the Drover brothers. I have total respect for every band on this package. Everybody works hard day in and day out. We have had a few setbacks on this tour. Our bus broke down in Texas a week ago and we missed 2 shows. I’m sorry to everyone who traveled to us on those dates. We will be back!! Yesterday our session guitar player bailed on us in Toronto, giving us no notice. He WAS a great friend of ours and we are really shocked by this.The road can really scare some people. Who in the hell would leave an arena tour with Megadeth??? The shows have been going on as planned. We are doing all future gigs on this tour without adding a second guitar player. When we get back home, then we can start a new search…again. Our next Gigantour show is at the Bell Center in Montréal. We hope to see everyone there!! keep it metal!! TIM September 20th, 2006 | Comments are closed So our little bus broke down the other day. We were told it was going to be done this morning, but looks like it’s going to be another day. We’re really sorry and want to invite all our fans from Milwaukee to make the drive down to Chicago to see us. Thanks also to everyone who’s been checking out our YouTube lessons, we’ve been sitting around our hotel room reading all your comments, great stuff. Take care and sorry again.

Canada’s Into Eternity spent Monday Sept. 11, a Gigantour 2006 off-day, filming the video for “Severe Emotional Distress”, the first single from their Oct. 3rd release, “The Scattering Of Ashes”. The video follows the song’s theme, “cutters” (people who cut themselves), and was shot by Kevin Wildt (The Warriors, Set Your Goals). Reportedly Wildt has captured the band’s vision perfectly and click the link below to check out photos from the shoot. Look for the video late next month on MTV2 and all online outlets. http://blog.myspace.com/centurymedia Thanks to fans who watched Into Eternity‘s YouTube guitar lesson #1, viewing the lesson was enough to win four awards from YouTube, including awards for being in the Top 40 Daily Most Viewed and Top 75 Daily Top Favorites.

Get ready for school… guitar school that is, the first in an ongoing weekly series, Century Media has posted the first of eight guitar lessons with Into Eternity‘s guitarist Tim Roth at their YouTube webpage. Choosing a passage from “Timeless Winter”, Roth shows you how to play like a six-string super demon. “It was cool to film my riffs and teach them the only way I know how, I’m not a real ‘trained’ teacher. Hopefully it will be helpful for anyone wanting to learn some of the new album. It was a lot fun creating those videos”, commented Roth. Clocking in with supersonic soloing speeds while remaining melodically song-oriented, Roth‘s playing has been described as “tearing up his guitar neck with clarity and precision” (Guitar One). Catch Into Eternity live on Megadeth’s Gigantour 2006 which kicks off today Sept. 6 in Boise, Idaho. Additional information can be found at the Gigantour website.

It’s official! Canada’s progressive metal band Into Eternity will perform on this year’s Gigantour. Announced Monday at the Gigantour site, Into Eternity guitarist Tim Roth said of the honor, “we are extremely blown away at the chance to tour with this great festival. When Into Eternity was formed, a tour with Megadeth was always a goal of mine. I didn’t actually think 9 years later we would be playing arenas with them. Into Eternity would like to give extra thanks to Megadeth drummer Shawn Drover for going to bat and putting in some good words for us. See you out there!” Set for release on Oct. 3, “The Scattering Of Ashes”, the band’s new album, has already been described as “a landmark triumph” by Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles, and more colorfully by vocalist Stu Block as “over the top Metal Madness.” Mixed and mastered by Andy Sneap (Killswitch Engage, Arch Enemy) the new album’s clear production brings forward their ingenious multi-leveled musical dynamics and fearless experimentation with style and genre. More information about the band, photos, mp3s and album artwork can be found here. June 20th, 2006 | Comments are closed Things are going well these days in the Into Eternity camp. The recording of our 4th album was recently completed at the end of May. Now we are looking forward to Andy Sneap putting all of his talent into mixing the new disc. That will take place around June 23/06. The band is excited for everyone to hear the new material. Right now Mattias Norén is working on the CD packaging. I’ve seen the cover and it looks really amazing. Mattias always does a great job. Last week we finished a photo shoot with Cortney Bodnar. The pics turned out well and now it’s up to Mattias to bring every thing to life. We’ve been listening to a rough mix of the songs that the studio gave us. So far, I think it is a mix between Dead Or Dreaming and Buried In Oblivion. For this album we kept some things a bit more stripped down. Now we won’t have 5 vocal harmonies going at once. The band decided that we want to sound more like we do live, so we stuck to 2 part vocal harmonies. It still sounds killer though and I’m sure people will dig the new melodies. Stu did a great job singing on this album. He has 5 different voices that he can change back and forth from. Wait to you hear some of the notes he hits! That is all for now….. keep it metal! TIM |
