Pressrelase from Sensory Records:

THE DIABLO SWING ORCHESTRA To See North American Release Via Sensory Records

Since the release of their debut The Butcher’s Ballroom in 2007 Sweden's DIABLO SWING ORCHESTRA have gained a loyal fan base of their own. People have embraced their mind bending mix of metal, opera, swing jazz, and spaghetti-western soundtrack with open arms and they have been perceived as a fresh breath of air in a genre getting more and more stale and formulaic.

DSO’s sophomore effort titled Sing-Along Songs for the Damned & Delirious proves that they are no one hit wonder but are here to stay. The new album is a smörgåsbord of different levels of musical insanity building on the foundation laid down on their debut. The cover art was crafted by acclaimed Swedish illustrator Peter Bergting, most notable for his work with the graphic novel Gangkrig 145; a Swedish #1 bestseller. Touring will begin in September starting with Progpower USA and will continue in Europe later in the fall.

Licensed from Ascendance Records to Sensory Records for North American distribution, Sing-Along Songs for the Damned & Delirious shall be made available to North American fiends on September 22nd.

Read the press release from our record company below.

________________________________________________________

Here's the cover art for the upcoming Diablo Swing Orchestra album "Sing-Along Songs For the Damned and Delirious", out in Europe on the 21st September. It was made by the acclaimed Swedish illustrator Peter Bergting, most notable for his work with the graphic novel Gängkrig which is a #1 bestseller in Sweden right now.



The album will come in two editions for the stores. The "normal" edition will be a 4-panel digipac containing the CD and a 12 page booklet and a "special" edition, limited to just 2000 copies, in a gorgeous 8 panel digipac containing the CD, a 12 page booklet and a Bonus DVD featuring all sorts of goodies like live footage, behind the scenes, photo albums and whatever else can be crammed in!

A "very special" edition will be available directly from Ascendance by mail order only, with an individually numbered band logo Dog Tag pendant, a set of postcards and a vinyl sticker included with the CD/DVD version. This will be stricly limited to 300 copies and details for pre-order will be on the Ascendance Myspace soon (http://www.myspace.com/ascendancerecords).

Having now heard the full album we can assure you that old fans of the band will not be disappointed at all. It's got all the elements that made "The Butcher's Ballroom" such a success, but they've also built on those themes and taken the sound to new and uncharted territory. In short: You're going to love it!

As previously announced the band will be playing a launch party show in London on October 2nd at the Purple Turtle, Camden. The venue has a limited capacity and tickets are selling fast! I know it seems a long time away but I suggest you get your tickets sooner rather than later to avoid potential disappointment.

Tickets are available in advance from Seetickets . Alternatively you can avoid postage costs and booking fees by buying directly from us at http://ascendancerecords.com/site/ordering-albums . We won't be issuing physical tickets, but we'll keep your name(s) at the door for when you arrive.

Just a short update to let you all know that we’ll begin with the mixing today. During the last couple of weeks we have been working on post-production and effects.
The mix is scheduled to take two weeks and this upcoming weekend we’ll also have a photo shoot to get us some new news promo pics.
 
Not long until there will be a sample of the new record online now!
