| LEVERAGE - Blind Fire Artwork, Tracklisting Revealed; Audio Samples Available  Frontiers Records will release LEVERAGE's second album, Blind Fire, on January 25th, 2008. Says the label, "Leverage is a top level melodic metal band which came out of nowhere in 2006, causing a stir with the release of their debut album Tides. Their blend of modern metal sound and old school melody-based songwriting earned rave reviews from the media and created a fanbase both in Finland and throughout the rock community in many countries. One highlight of the ratings was melodicrock.com naming Tides as the best Metal/Prog album of 2006, with two songs at the top of their heavy rock song listing. The band’s frontman Pekka Heino (also singer for BROTHER FIRETRIBE) was also named the Vocalist Of The Year! “The warm welcome for Tides was a pleasant surprise for us” says the band’s guitar player and main composer Tuomas Heikkinen. “We got good radio airplay in Finland, even climbed to the charts, all before our very first gig with our own material! Since then, we’ve played throughout Finland at clubs and festivals. Our music has been described as melodic metal or melodic heavy rock, which is fine by us”. Rock and Metal lovers will easily recognize influences from RAINBOW, MAGNUM, STRATOVARIUS and MASTERPLAN with a light progressive metal edge. “We wanted to plan the second album and the second step of our career carefully” continues Heikkinen. “As a big part of that, we were happy to sign with Frontiers. The songs were all written between the release of Tides and entering the studio in July 07. Right from the first demos we knew that the second album will be a great step forward for Leverage. Here’s why: we’re tighter as a band, we know what our own style is and what we might be capable of, and we’re busting our butts to make as solid music as we ever can. We recorded and mixed (Torsti Spoof and Jari Mikkola) the album at Studio Audio, Jyväskylä, Finland between the beginning of July and halfway of September. It was mastered at Chartmakers, Helsinki.” Blind Fire tracklisting: 'Shadow In The Rain' ( mp3), 'King Of The Night', 'Stormchild' ( mp3), 'Sentenced' ( mp3), 'Hellhorn', 'Mr. Universe', 'Don’t Touch The Sun', 'Run Down', 'Heart Of Darkness', 'Learn To Live'. “All in all, we are really proud of Blind Fire” concludes Tuomas Heikkinen. “We worked hard to make the most of the relatively short time between ‘Tides’ and the new one, and we feel we accomplished what we set out to do.” Frontiers will also release at the same time as the new album, a new edition of Tides which will also include two exclusive bonus tracks: 'Superstition' (live) and 'Twilight Symphony' (live).
