The support is most appreciated. We are getting ready to head back out on the road for the first time in a long time. The year\\'s Strhess tour is going to be sick and I for one can\\'t wait to get back onstage to rock out with all of our friends across the country. This is the ONLY tour we will be doing this year, so we want everyone to come out and throw it down with us before we have to lock ourselves back in the studio. We have been getting a setlist together and plan on adding some new songs from the new record into the set, as well as playing a few older songs that we have not busted out onstage for awhile. \\"Paul and I just were just up at the MTV studios with Jamey Jasta filming an interview piece for Headbangers Ball and they had the tribute to Dimebag Six String Masterpiece collection on the set. It was definitely an unreal sight to behold. They are all Dean guitars that different artists and musicians custom decorated as a memorial to the memory of the one and only Dimebag Darrell. You don\\'t want to miss this and our new video for \\"In Effigy\\" will also make its television debut, so keep an eye out. It is a great performance video that captures the vibe well by just focusing on the band and the pure intensity of the song.

Teasn\\', Pleasn\\' (Dangerous Toys) Brian Fair (vocals) spells out the details on the tracks from the new album: "Hello everyone! All of us in SHADOWS FALL are very excited to announce the release of *Fallout From The War* on Century Media. This album is meant to be a companion piece to our last full-length, *The War Within*, and it contains six originals songs written during the sessions for that very album. We returned home from an amazing summer on Ozzfest 2005 and decided to get together to record these songs as a perfect way to close out *The War Within* album cycle and give our fans a chance to hear some killer new material. The recording sessions themselves went incredibly well. We were able to realize the full potential of these songs and with the Zeuss' help we were able craft an amazing disc with a wide variety of styles and emotions. "These songs cover everything you have come to expect from us and it was also a chance to re-record a few tracks that had previously only been available as bonus tracks in Japan and Europe, including a new version of 'Deadworld' - a song that's one of the first-ever Shad tunes (dating back almost 10 years!). This version is also the first one featuring Jason on drums allowing him to add his signature sound to the track. We also re-worked 'This Is My Own,' a track from *The Art Of Balance* sessions, with some new vocal harmonies and a few twists and turns. "For the cover songs, we decided to dip back into our own history to shine some light on bands that were huge influences on us but never seemed to get the attention they deserved. For one, Only Living Witness was an amazing and highly underrated rock band from the Boston area and we covered their tune 'December' - and had a blast doing it! Next, we banged out a version of 'Mark Of The Squealer' by NYHC legends, Leeway. To me, Leeway was the ultimate metal/hardcore crossover band with sick thrash riffs and hard-as-nails lyrics. And finally, we recorded an updated version of Dangerous Toy\\'s party anthem 'Teasn\\', Pleasn\\'' that features original D. Toys' vocalist Jason McMaster singing along with myself. We went through a few thirty packs to make sure we got this one right! Good times indeed. "This will be our last release for Century Media, who as a label have helped us to grow into the band we are and allowed us to achieve things we never thought possible. We see this as the perfect finale to our Century Media legacy and we hope you enjoy it." Want to be the first to hear a track from the new SHADOWS FALL album?
