N ow that 2009 is coming to its end, we would like to wish you all the best for 2010. For us 2009 has been a great year with the release of Altitude and the shows following this release. We would like to thank all of you that supported us one way or another.

Next year will start pretty exciting with the European tour with The Gathering scheduled for January and February. Check the complete tour over here. we hope we will see you at one of these shows.

More news about the tour will follow soon, but what we can let you know is that once again, Rutger Vlek will join us on the road, since Jan is unable to do these live shows due to limited free time. Rutger is very familiar with the Autumn fibe, since he has filled in the synth-spot for Jan during many occasions in the past.

In the meantime, enjoy these pictures of our gig in Luxor, Arnhem. the pictures are made by Monica Duffels (Click on image to enlarge).

We’re delighted to announce that we’ll be teaming up with our esteemed colleagues The Gathering on their 'The West Pole' / 20th Anniversary European tour in January and February 2010.



It’s truly an honor for us to join forces with a band that rocked the cradle of contemporary female fronted heavy music and that has since then firmly set its own unique course into uncharted territory throughout its 20 year history. The Gathering have managed to create a trademark sound that sets them apart from the wealth of bands that followed in their footsteps and in this sense they have been a true inspiration for us.

Though our musical styles may differ slightly, we feel that Autumn and The Gathering share a very similar approach to music: persevering in the face of setbacks and rising to the challenge of creating music that expands our musical boundaries while remaining close to the hearts of both ourselves and our fans.

An evening with The Gathering and Autumn therefore holds the promise of being a varied, honest and intense musical experience. We hope to welcome you at one of these shows!

Our latest video, The Heart Demands, is featured on one of the largest online guitar magazines on the net! Below more info and the news item from Metal Blade, check it out!






Autumn “The Heart Demands” video featured on Ultimate-Guitar.com!
 
The Netherland’s Autumn has recently released a new video for their song, The Heart Demands, from their latest album, Altitude. Our friends over at Ultimate-Guitar.com posted the video this morning, so make sure to head over there and check it out. You can see the video HERE.
 
Altitude was released on March 3rd in the US and perpetuates the band’s vision of writing “albums” and not just putting together a collection of songs. Guitarist Mats van der Valk comments: “We’re pretty much an album band, having grown up in times when buying an album meant embarking on a musical journey, a thrilling adventure. Nowadays, you often end up with a collection of songs, some killers, some fillers. For us, every note on this album has a purpose. Every second counts, so to speak.”
 
Ultimate-Guitar.com is the fastest growing guitar community on the net - it's the only guitar website that has gear and cd reviews, music news, guest columns, guitar and bass lessons and tabs in one place! And don't forget about the coolest guitar community of guitarists on the planet, so make sure to register for an account and comment on The Heart Demands and other videos while you’re there.
 
“Welman’s performance is far more personal and engaging, reflecting the warmth of an Anette Olzon or Amy Lee…” Outburn Magazine
 
“…dreamy and otherworldly...brilliant and very inventive…” PureGrainAudio.com
 
“…beautiful harmonies combined with great songwriting and an avant-garde sensibility make Altitude a multi-layered and multi-dimensional CD that is a very enjoyable disc to listen to.” ThrashMag.com
 
“To say that Altitude is the bands best work to date is an understatement, for Altitude has blasted light years ahead of what the band crafted two years ago in My New Time.” SomethingPunk.com
 
“The MVP of the album is Welman, who takes the full reins of Autumn and never lets loose. Her vocals are soaring, passionate, and full of just the right amount of emotion to not lean into over-wrought territory.” About.com
 
“If you're looking for smartly penned melodic metal (which manages to sound unlike most of the other modern-day metal bands mining similar sonic terrain), Autumn's Altitude would be a wise purchase.” AllMusic.com

It's always a pleasure to rock the 013 and last night was no different! Thanks to all of you who showed up and made all three bands feel very welcome! Special thanks go out to Marijn of Koch Amps for bringing a back-up Powertone to the show when Mats' amp suffered some problems. Also thanks to Stream of Passion and Xenobia for great shows and easy cooperation behind the scenes.

We'll be teaming up with Stream Of Passion again for a couple of shows later this year. More info coming soon. Keep checking our tour section and we hope to see you at a show soon!
