I Walk Amoung YouICED EARTH ANNOUNCE NEW SINGLE, REVEAL ARTWORK
With the framework for the Armageddon of Man firmly laid with the band’s
2007 full-length release, “Framing Armageddon – Something Wicked Part I”,
ICED EARTH are set to launch the next installment of Jon Schaffer’s
“Something Wicked” saga with the release of their new single, “I Walk Among
You”, in June of 2008. The full-length studio follow-up to “Something Wicked
Part I” is due for release in Fall of 2008.
The new single and proceeding full-length studio album mark the return of
longtime frontman, Matt Barlow to the band who’s dark and sinister tones are
the perfect fit to narrate the intense and viscous annihilation of mankind
set in motion with the birth of the story’s main character, “Set Abominae”, in
“Something Wicked Part II.” The single will allow fans to get a glimpse of
the bright future for the band, and the perhaps not-so-bright future for
humanity as we now know it.
The single will feature 3 songs, an exclusive version of the song "I Walk
Alone" and a few tracks from Framing Armageddon (Something Wicked Part 1) with new vocal performances by Matt Barlow. Due to the re-tracking of the lead
vocals these tracks have been remixed and remastered. There will be an iTunes
exclusive version of the single "I Walk Among You" that features "A Charge To
Keep" which has also been re-sung by Matt, remixed and re-mastered.
The video for "I Walk Alone" is being filmed in early April.
All tracks were recorded at Jon Schaffer’s studio, Soaring Eagle Sound, and
mixed and mastered at Morrisound. The single, and following full-length
platter will be released by Steamhammer/SPV.
"I Walk Among You" Tracklisting:
1. I Walk Alone
2. Setian Massacre
3. The Clouding
4. A Charge to Keep (exclusive iTunes track)
I for 1 hope jon says "aw fuck it put the whole thing on the cd."
Fuck Itunes. give me a cd that will go in my stereo without hackage!

[4. A Charge to Keep (exclusive iTunes track)] - What does that mean?

as in it won't be on the hard copy.
hence my comment on the bottom of my post

The Wicked One

I can't wait for this. I'll have to get "A Charge to Keep", I think it sucks that it's an exclusive Itunes track.

Like everyone else I will just buy the Itunes bonus track only from Itunes and then buy the real cd copy of the cd at a store. I too would rather have the physical copy than a recorded copy (unless of course it's like a billion dollars on ebay and really rare where I couldn't afford to get a physical copy, than an mp3 is good enough for me)

For me its a little bit confusing:Is I Walk Alone the same song with I Walk Among You,or is IWA an alt version of IWAY?OR are they totally different???Than its a little bit stupid,because the single is named "I Walk Among You" but the only new song ist I Walk Alone and not IWAY

I don't think anyone knows except for Schaffer... I guess that we have to wait for the release (Pt. 2).

noo,
im very sure its different.
makes no sense to make it the same song with a different name.
|
Shorty

Yeah but its no-sense to release a single named I Walk Among You and then is nowhere a song with this name

you know, there are times when titles are made from a section of the lyrics. Usually a considered "hook" in the song.
for example Scorpions: Face The Heat
the "face the heat" is last part of a time change leading into the guitar solo of Alien Nation.
Im willing to bet there is only one song. Go to the main site and fish a bit for the old news about the tracks for parts 1 and 2. there have been and probably will have more changes in the titles but it is a good reference.

Tainted Innocence

it may also be the same story just written a different way.
|
Stormrider

I think they are the same song, but the one on the single is a different version hence the different name. I could be wrong though.

Tainted Innocence

im still sticking with what i said :p
