CRYSTAL BALL Sign With AFM RECORDS, New Album Due In October AFM Records has issued the following update:
"After signing such great swiss bands like
KROKUS and
SHAKRA, we are proud to announce that we just signed another high – class hardrock act from Switzerland.
CRYSTAL BALL, the band around frontman Mark Sweeney, who just released his first solo album, is currently working on their sixth album with the working title Secrets. The album will be produced by
Michael Bormann (ex-
JADED HEART, BLOODBOUND) before it will be mixed by Achim Köhler (
PRIMAL FEAR, BRAINSTORM).
We are looking forward to get another great melodic hard rock album with lots of earwigs made in the Crystal Ball camp. The band is describing their new material as a mixture of melody and heaviness. Compared to the Timewalker album, the new material will go a bit more back to the roots. The new album will contain straight rockers and heavy tracks as well.
The release date of the new Crystal Ball album will be October 26th."
