The CD, which was once again mixed and mastered by Dennis Ward (PINK CREAM 69, KROKUS), is described in a press release as "a huge step forward and shows the band's boundless musical possibilities." Commented the group: "The album title is a very personal statement. 2009 has been a difficult year for many of us. Also for [VOODOO CIRCLE] mastermind Alex Beyrodt who hit a personal rock bottom in early 2009. After an eventful year, he is now dusting himself off." Alex is well known throughout the rock and metal scene as the mastermind of SILENT FORCE, former guitarist of SINNER and touring guitarist of PRIMAL FEAR. His exceptional compositions and instrumental skills secured him highest respect from other musicians and a strong worldwide fan base. In Japan, where quality is still the most important aspect when it comes to music, he is hailed as a "guitar hero" and fills the venues. According to a press release, "Alex chose to walk in huge footsteps with VOODOO CIRCLE, because the immense impact and influence that bands like RAINBOW and DEEP PURPLE had are undeniable. But if there is just one German musician who can fill this big boots and arouse with new energy, we definitely talk about Alex Beyrodt."
