Posted on Monday, June 06 @ 22:00:00 UTC by nightowl

Coming off the release of their debut album, The 26 Letters Of Your Universe, Gothenburg styled melodic metal two piece The Neologist have been hard at work on new material.

The band is currently working on their next album tentatively titled The Promise of Eternal Separation which is set to be released in the fall of 2011.

The Neologist is simultaneously recording the first of several In Flames cover albums which they will be titling In Flames We Trust: Volume 1. Thus far they have recorded and released "Jotun," "Jester Script Transfigured," and "Ordinary Story." The band is taking requests from fans via their Facebook, YouTube, and their homepage on which In Flames songs should be covered on the album. They also released 2 comical music videos for "Jotun" and "Jester Script Transfigured" which can be viewed on their YouTube account.

An official website has been launched for The Neologist where fans can get up to date information and free music. The new website is www.theneologist.net. Fans can also leave the band messages via their website for which In Flames songs should be covered next.

Most importantly, the band is giving away their music for FREE and encourage people to download their entire album and share the music. The entire The 26 Letters Of Your Universe album along with the 3 released In Flames covers can all be downloaded for free via the bands BandCamp profile.

Bio: "The Neologist is a musical endeavor created by James Lewis and Devin Walsh in 2009. Our mission is simple: to create and play the music we are fans of and what we want to hear for ourselves. We played in the band SeVeR for a few years, and when the band went its separate ways, we decided to create The Neologist as a musical outlet with no rules, boundaries, or limitations. As a two-man band we are able to make decisions in 2.3 seconds, have full creative control, and basically do what we want. We do everything ourselves, or with the help of a few friends, from the music, lyrics, artwork, videos, recording, etc…

"To sum it up: We love metal. Some of our favorite bands are In Flames, Soilwork, Disarmonia Mundi, and Dark Tranquility to name a few. We write our music to sound like the music we love, and as I’m sure you can tell, those bands are some that we are clearly influenced by. We are not trying to be 'ground-breaking' or 'the next big thing.' We write and play metal we enjoy. Hopefully you will enjoy it too. If not, then maybe next album.

"We both also might be part vampire. We have very pale skin, tend to enjoy darkness and the night more. The sun is not fond of our skin. We have pretty sweet human fangs. We have not tried someone else’s blood, so we won’t know for sure until we do that.

We give away all of our music for free. Just ask for it, and we’ll give it to you!"
