Dear fans,

as you might have noticed, After Forever experienced a lot in 2007. A new deal with Nuclear Blast and The Entertainment Group, the release of a new album, gigs in Europe and the U.S.A./Canada, all thanks to your support. Unfortunately, 2007 also had a negative side. Sander experienced the symptoms of a burn-out and had to stop playing with After Forever for a few months.

After Forever did a good job doing the scheduled gigs with mainly George (ex- Orphanage) as grunter, making possible the album could still be promoted. After that, a European and an American/Canadian tour followed, with Sander this time, and his condition seemed to be ok. Unfortunately, just recently, Sander fell victim to a seizure attack in an airplane, and after research that attack seemed to be stress related. The doctors think this is a very serious matter, and they strongly advised him to not be involved with any After Forever activity for at least a year, to prevent a worse health situation.

Just like the season, these concerts will be light and lively, brought to you in a slightly finer line up than those opulent festival shows in summer. Contrabass, viola, violin, guitars and vocals shall bring the same emotion and power as known for Chamber, but more basic, a little less complex. Just like a flower about to bloom, these concerts may remind you on Chamber's early days...

Those who have seen the successful slasher sequel SAW know that it is not only the claustrophobic and metal pounding film score by Ex-NINE-INCH-NAILS’-keyboarder CHARLIE CLOUSER which supports this Tour de Force. SAW also stands for a number of top-class song compilations which abound in electronic beats, desperate vocals and tearing guitar riffs. SAW IV will doubtlessly follow that tradition with advanced Goth rock and industrial metal: among well-known top acts of the underground scene such as EMILIE AUTUMN and SKINNY PUPPY the opener, EBM-legend NITZER EBB, beats the records with "Payroll", an exclusive track that will definitely go down in cult club hit history with its harsh and brutal floor-filling beats! But there's more to it than that. This brute force soundtrack also includes and exquisite and exclusive track of MINISTRY and SKINNY PUPPY have updated a classic song by "Spasmolytic" and DOPE STARS INC., SAOSIN, DROWNING POOL, OXYGEN, SUBMERSED and a few other great underground bands offer rock-hard stuff until CHARLIE CLOUSER himself provides for a dismal finale.
