TRANS-SIBERIAN ORCHESTRA WELCOMES YOU TO “NIGHT CASTLE,” DECEMBER 9, 2009 - WITH TWO SHOWS AT 4:00 PM AND 8:00 PM - AT THE NMSU PAN AMERICAN CENTER
Atlantic recording group Trans-Siberian Orchestra has announced the upcoming release of its hugely anticipated new album. “NIGHT CASTLE” will arrive in stores and all digital retailers on October 27th.
Years in the making, “NIGHT CASTLE” is without question TSO’s most ambitious and adventurous work to date. Founder Paul O’Neill and crew have given the fans 26 songs that run the gamut from hard rock to classical, this rock opera takes you through different points of history detailing the triumphs and follies of man but ultimately this is an epic story of transformation and love. The two-CD set will be released at an unbelievably low price, and will include a unique 68-page booklet, featuring story, lyrics and full-color illustrations by legendary artist Greg Hildebrandt.
“Obviously our fans have been unbelievably patient,” O’Neill says. “This was supposed to come out a few years ago. But we were dedicated to making something really special, and the longer it took, the more pressure we felt to give people the best possible piece of art we could.
“These are hard times,” he adds, explaining the lower price, “and we’re trying to do what we can to make them better. We believe in value with Trans-Siberian Orchestra; everything we do - the shows, the albums, the souvenirs - are over-the-top productions with a lot of stuff for people to see and hear and feel, and we do that for as inexpensive a price as we can.”
“NIGHT CASTLE” will be preceded by the first single, “Nutrocker,” which ships to multi-format radio outlets nationwide later this month. The track sees TSO paying homage to one of their greatest influences, Emerson, Lake & Palmer and features rock icon Greg Lake on bass.
One of the most successful live acts in music history, Trans-Siberian Orchestra has slated a major North American tour to bring “NIGHT CASTLE” to its legions of loyal fans in the Southwest for two shows (4:00 & 8:00) at the NMSU Pan American Center, December 9, 2009.
