Candlelight Records has premiered “Shadow Fear” from VADER’s forthcoming album, Impressions in Blood, at the label’s official Myspace page. Bring your browser to www.myspace.com/candlelightrecordsusa to have your first listen.

Following the success of The Art of War, the band’s masterful EP released earlier this year, Impressions in Blood showcases why the world has long praised this highly regarded band’s now signature sound and style. Realized at Hertz Studios with the production team of Wojtek and Slawek Wieslawscy, the album features artwork by rising artist Seth (PARADISE LOST, ROTTING CHRIST). Its blazing speed (faster than fan favorite Litany!) is a turbulent metal ride that fans have long asked for and now finally receive. It is a corrosive and addictive metal offering.

Together since 1986, VADER have become one of metal’s most respected and prolific bands. Their extensive discography, now spanning eighteen individual recordings plus servearl videos and dvds, has sold nearly one million records worldwide. And till this day the band remain true road warriors, performing over 200 shows each year to a loyal and continually growing audience; the band most recently headlined the successful Metal Crusaders Tour (also featuring KATAKLYSM, labelmates DESTRUCTION, GRAVEWORM and more).
