TEN Reveal Cover Artwork For New Album; Release Date Confirmed For May
UK rockers Ten have checked in with the following update:
"We are delighted to announce that our 12th studio album entitled Isla De Muerta will be released on May 20th through Rocktopia Records. The album is named after the mythical Island Of The Dead from pirate legend. It opens with the instrumental track 'Buccaneers' and segues into the cinematic 'Dead Men Tell No Tales'. The album cover was illustrated by Gaetano Di Falco.
On July 2010, it was announced that Gary Hughes and the rest of the band had been working on a new Ten album named 'Stormwarning', due to be released in early 2011 marking the band's return after 4 years of silence. The album featured members Hughes, John Halliwell, Paul Hodson, Neil Fraser and Mark Zonder (Fates Warning) and was produced by Dennis Ward. A month later, an unreleased song from the Babylon sessions named "Dawn Star" appeared, as part of the AhORa Rock podcast of the Rocktopia music site. Originally, "Dawn Star" was meant to be the eleventh song on the Babylon album, but was removed from it three weeks prior to its final release.
On 21 January 2011, it was announced that the band would also be filming a video for the new album, with Devin Dehaven as the director. "Endless Symphony" was the highest budget video to date for the band and it was released just a month after. 'Stormwarning' on the other hand, was released in January and once again, proved to be a successful comeback for the band and its frontman Hughes after four years of absence from the music scene.
On September 2011, Paul Hodson announced his departure from the band through a Ten group on Facebook. Soon after, guitarist Neil Fraser and bassist Mark Sumner followed. On 5 November 2011, on their Fleetwoodstock charity gig, their very first live appearance since the band's return, the band featured for the first time on a live setting, new lead guitarist Dan Mitchell and keyboardist Darrel Treece-Birch, alongside bassist Steve Mckenna, who, since August of the same year, had returned to the band.
In May 2012, the band did a UK tour, supported by the bands Serpentine and White Widdow, for the first time after their re-emergence. The band also appeared for the first time, on Firefest on 19 October of the same year.
The band's latest studio album, entitled 'Heresy And Creed', was released on 26 September 2012 in Japan, 19 October in Europe and the 22nd in North America. The leading single off the album was the song "Gunrunning", the video clip of which was again directed by Devin Dehaven. The album's success culminated into its entry to the UK rock album charts on the 30th position for October 2012.
In March 2013, the band performed in Athens, Greece for the first time, while in August of the same year, a day after the band's appearance on Vasby Rock Festival (on which Serpentine lead guitarist Chris Gould filled in for him), the band announced that lead guitarist Dan Mitchell left the band due to health problems related to his wrist and arm.
For years Gary Hughes has toyed with the idea of bringing even more power and width into the Ten live sound. To this end, Ten are proud to announce the arrival of two new members in the shape of guitar players Dann Rosingana and Steve Grocott.
They are two highly skilled individuals and the aim is to bring twin lead guitar back into play whilst not detracting from the solid and powerful backdrop which is trademark Ten.
Gary commented "The arrival of Dann and Steve will enable the band to play more of the layers in Ten's studio sound live on stage."
