ZERO HOUR ANNOUNCEMENT!

Effective immediately, ZERO HOUR has parted ways with vocalist, Erik Rosvold. The other members of ZERO HOUR have not seen or directly talked to Erik since we got back from our European tour in April 2003. Since that time our only method of communication with Erik has been by email (with little response from him). Jasun, Mike and I felt we'd lost control of ZERO HOUR and even thought about discontinuing ZERO HOUR. Erik would make sporadic ventures into the studio to work on the new album but progress was slow and has ground to a halt for months now. Frankly we were all concerned and at the same time a bit unsure of how to proceed. We loved what Erik's vocals brought to the band and always felt that he was an integral part of the band…but we also knew that if the band was going to continue he would have to be replaced. Finding a replacement for Erik would not be easy.

We are pleased to announce that Fred Marshall is the new vocalist in ZERO HOUR! Jasun and I have been fans of Fred's vocals ever since we heard his prior band's demo, "Reigning Thoughts" by Destiny's Void. Through the assistance of Doug Ott of Enchant we were able to get in contact with Fred. We called Fred and sent him Towers of Avarice and now we are working together on the next disc!

Fred will start tracking in November and all vocals will be tracked in December. Zero Hour will have our next CD released in early 2005!

We would like to take this opportunity to thank our fans for their patience, without you we are nothing. ZERO HOUR will always give you our best and one thanks is never enough. We know the wait has been long but we will not let you down. We would also like to thank Ken Golden/Sensory Records for their constant support.

I asked Ken at PP what was up with Zero Hour and he kinda smirked and I asked him if it was the vocalist and he just kinda gave me the nod. He said an announcement was forthcoming and here it is. Thank God. The Tipton's have two albums worth of material and no vocals to go on them due to Erik's malingering. Good to see them back on track.
 
Well, I liked his vocals on Tower of Avarice but I don't blame them for finding somebody else given the circumstances, that's gotta be really frustrating. Looking forward very much to the new album.

Who are Zero Hour? RUN do not walk..do not pass go and check out Zero Hour at: http://www.zerohourweb.com and check out samples. These guys are freaking brilliant! Altho I do like what Erik's vocals brought to the musical table in their first 2 cds I for one knowing the Tipton brother's talent can't wait to see the next amazing musical masterpiece they pull out of their hats! BRING ON ZERO HOUR!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hopefully this is one of those scenarios where everything will work out in the end. I loved Erik's vocals and lyrics, but obviously he just wasn't driven to contribute anymore. Thanks to the rest of the band for keeping Zero Hour alive.
