Posted on Saturday, May 24 @ 23:53:42 UTC by nightowl

Nightmare Records is proud to announce the release of the new Cloudscape CD Global Drama on August 19th, 2008.

Cloudscape have inked a new deal with record label Golden Gore/Roastinghouse Records (ZYX) to release the new (third) album entitled Global Drama in Europe during mid August, as well. Global Drama will also be released in the U.S and Canada through Nightmare Records in August.

An 8 minute sample containing parts from all songs from Global Drama has been uploaded at www.myspace.com/cloudscapemetal. Take a moment and check out what the band has in store for you this time.

A new promotional video will also be filmed within the next coming months directed by Rainer Holmgren.



In the summer of 1998, three long time friends from Middletown, Ohio set out to perpetuate a musical style pioneered by such bands as Rush, Yes, and Porcupine Tree, and other inspirational progressive rock artists under the moniker of Perspective.

Combining the great classic synth sounds, and complex songs yet memorable melodies with more current production, Perspective X IV (featuring Rod Middleton on guitars, midi pedals, and vocals; Chris Matthews on bass, keyboards, midi pedals, moog taurus pedals, and vocals; and Ben Burton on drums, percussion, and vocals) is sure to please old school progressive rock-fans in the highest order.

Writing began shortly thereafter on the band's first album entitled Coming Into Focus. This was recorded in 1999 at On-Line Studio in Cincinnati, and was praised highly, garnering 14 out of 16 stars in the spring/summer 2000 issue of Progression Magazine (issue 35). The disc also received countless downloads over the then extremely popular mp3.com. The follow up release Progressions combined remastered tracks from Coming Into Focus in addition to new tracks. This disk was also received very well. The band then recorded an entire CD of new material in hopes of drawing label interest, exciting Lance King owner of Nightmare Records, bringing back the nostalgia for the bands he loved in his 70?s youth of prog like Rush, Kansas, and Yes.

Now being released on Nightmare on June 24th, 2008, Shadow Of Doubt is sure to garner a large smile from all fans of 70?s & 80?s Prog Rock.
