The Corroseum forum (new design under construction)

You snuffed your Greatest Hit, i.e. "Don't Look Down"?! Harsh..
Was the gig recorded? Audio or video, it would be sweet to check out for us 'continentally impaired' fans. Guess I'll ask Olof for a live review at next opportunity...

We may add that one and/or "Midnight Lady" for next time.

Someone recorded the Enforcer set but not ours. Next time I'll make sure someone is shooting.

Great Demo-LP, i actually enjoyed every single song on it. It's been a while since i said that about a new released record.

So, please try to keep it that way and don't sign to Earache Records .

ah cheers, that's really nice to hear! thanks!

earache, haha... no way.

Some news...

Shirts here now -- white shirt with black logo, very simple. $10 plus postage.

Next gig is Nov 7th in Chicago.

LP is [edit: oops, ALMOST] sold out [< 10 copies], new pressing via High Roller in early 2010

Got the cd. Only listened to it once- but I really like it so far. I'll pick up the less bleak looking version of the lp when High Roller put it out.

It's absolute amazing, congratulations, very simple but effective traditional heavy metal!!!!

Hello Chris. I've been hearing these CDRs of High Spirits in the last months and they sound pretty good. Still some places to improve but thats what time's for right?

Just a curiosity, while hearing them I couldn't avoid getting an "Superchrist vibe" going on with several riffs and music structures, and even the voice, how it's located in the music is similar too except not a rough one this time, I guess I can call High Spirits a more traditional Heavy Metal version of Superchrist . Do you agree with me?

And a question, have you started making more songs for an album, can we wait for an High Spirits album next year?

Some similarities can't be avoided. I am only one person! But it's more of a case that the same things are influencing both bands, not so much that one band influences another.

You'll get an album as soon as a label offers the necessary funds for a proper studio recording. Studios in Chicago are expensive and we cannot pay for an album session ourselves.

In the meantime... yes. You can listen to a new song called "Let's Rock" right now! In demo form, of course.

We are also planning a short tour (Midwestern USA) for June.

Anyway, glad you enjoy the CDs, and thanks for sharing your comments here!

chris i will choke you to death if you don't let me book high spirits in st. louis!

It would be great if there is a release this year, the demo lp is awesome.

Eurodates, bitte schön? Since our festivals over here have a tendency to book bands 8 years in advance I'm crossing my fingers for HOA 2023!

we want nothing more than to play in Europe.

Jared - I will be in touch next week re. June 24th
