Vengeance Set New Album Release
. Goewie comments the worldwide collaboration with the German Hanover based label enthusiastically: "We are proud that we have signed with SPV/Steamhammer. We finally found our home and together we have many ways to make the fans rock!" The album's sensational all-star cast is just as spectacular as the new material: alongside original vocalist Leon Goewie, "Crystal Eye" features drummer Chris Slade (ex- AC/DC), guitarist Keri Kelli (ex- Alice Cooper), bassist Chris Glen (ex- Michael Schenker Group), and guest guitarist Timo Somers (son of Vengeance guitarist Jan Somers, who sadly passed away in January 2011). "More than ever before, this is a band which consists of friends," comments Goewie, whose excellent reputation as an exceptional vocalist made this impressive line-up possible: Goewie, Slade, Glen and Kelli also form the nucleus of AC/DC cover band Chris Slade`s Steel Circle who rock the popular clubs whenever their time allows it. "Crystal Eye" was produced by Michael Voss, who composed most of the songs in collaboration with Goewie. The title track was penned by former Vengeance guitarist Arjen Lucassen (Ayreon, Star One), and Tony Martin (ex- Black Sabbath) contributed 'Whole Lotta Metal' tailor-made for Goewie and Vengeance. The album closes with the instrumental 'Jan`s End Piece' which features the last guitar solos recorded by Jan Somers before his unexpected death. "I've listened to the new tracks a couple of times now and consider this the most professional album I've ever done," says Goewie proudly, adding: "The fun and humour which are typical of Vengeance are all there on "Crystal Eye", but in addition, the material is perceptibly more serious, which I feel really suits Vengeance mark 2012." Goewie & Co. will schedule a tour featuring their illustrious album line-up for March/April 2012.
