New ENCHANT !!! Official !!!

ebass · February 20th, 2012, 03:46 PM

It's official! Enchant is making a new album!

Contracts have just been signed with Inside Out Music and Century Media for a new Enchant album to be released later this year or early 2013 at the latest. The band is very excited and is currently working on new music as we speak! The band starts recording all new material within the upcoming months, so check back here for updates and progress reports on what will be Enchant's ninth album! There's also talk of video footage of the making of the new album, so keep your eyes and ears open for a behind-the-scenes look into the band's recording process.

Thanks to all the fans for your support!

Thanks, Ed, for the update!

It took a while to remember my password. Heck, I haven't used this account in years. That's great news Ed! Looking forward to number nine!

Doing the "Happy Dance" as I type this

. Can't tell you how big the smile was across my face as I read the thread title. As was noted earlier - BEST NEWS SO FAR THIS YEAR!

xelasarg · February 28th, 2012, 02:27 AM

Whooooooooooooooooooowhooooooooooooooooooooooooooo !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(...sorry, got carried away

)

Awesome! In case you decide to release a special edition, I'll pre-order it right away

DiscoDave · March 3rd, 2012, 06:14 PM

My day has significantly improved upon hearing this!

Aikara · March 6th, 2012, 03:49 AM

, talking to the band after the gig...
I keep repeating myself for decades now (literally!): it's a terrible shame that a band so talented as Enchant don't get the attention and commercial success they deserve. Goddamn crap on the radio all day

BotW is one of only a handful of albums I'm still listening to after almost twenty years. Time for another masterpiece

MelbCro · March 14th, 2012, 04:20 AM

am so excited for this, been way too long

JOSENCHANT · March 21st, 2012, 07:39 PM

I'm usually a sneaky spectator at these forums.. however, I had to register just to be able to say that this is the most exciting news I've heard in a long time! Really looking forward to it

My favorite band since I first heard you ten years ago.

mgirishfan · July 15th, 2012, 05:04 PM

Yeah, I'm a little late on the YEAH MAN that this is official now. You guys have no idea how much I'm looking forward to the new disc.

You also have no idea how much Enchant chatter there will be a little later this evening...I hope I get to work on time tomorrow!

Cheers guys! And to all the other Enchant fans out there!

DocProg · July 18th, 2012, 03:39 PM

You rock...

Thank you for some good news... I somehow felt it would be worth waiting...

I still have a special place for the DVD you signed in Oberhausen when you visited last time.

here's to you

would love to hear more about how the new album may sound, will there be a teaser???
