News : The Eternal touring for 'Under A New Sun'

By Mitch Booth on January 24, 2011

Press release:
“Melbourne Dark rockers The Eternal are happy to announce the ‘Under A New Sun’ tour to coincide with the release of their new album. The band will commence 20 dates kicking it all off at the East Brunswick Club with a string of Australian dates to follow. The tour will also see the band return to Japan to support the release of ‘Under A New Sun’ there with 6 dates, and for the first time the band will make their way to New Zealand for 3 dates.

The Eternal will release their 4th studio album ‘Under A New Sun’ on February 10th through Green Distribution in Australia & in Japan on SM Records, February 23rd. The band released the first single and video from the album in November for the title track of the album and have since received national airplay including Triple J.

‘Under A New Sun’ conceptually picks up where ‘Kartika’ left off with eastern influences, lashings of classic rock and an emotive lyrical approach. This album sees the band also experiment with new styles, combined with the colour, tone, textures and intricacies that have become the sound that defines The Eternal. In order to help them achieve their vision, The Eternal enlisted multi-instrumentalist, multi-platinum selling artist Jeff Martin (The Tea Party) to produce the album.

With a productive eight years as a band, three international tours, and three internationally acclaimed albums under their belt, 2011 is set to be a special year for the band with album number four proving to listeners and critics alike that The Eternal are a permanent, powerhouse fixture in the heavy rock scene.”
