Oh shit, I want that now, but they're only accepting North american orders. I have to wait for the I Hate version I guess, probably readily available around christmas.

It'll pop up on the website around Christmas, but you can probably already order it next month.

The Gates Of Slumber To Issue "The Ice Worm's Lair" Limited Collector's 12" EP

The Gates Of Slumber will issue a brand new 12" vinyl EP, The Ice Worm's Lair, on July 5, 2008. Limited to 500 copies (300 aqua, 150 purple and 50 white), the EP features the track "Ice Worm" from their new album, Conqueror (due this month on Profound Lore / I Hate Records), as well as three non-album tracks exclusive to this release.

The b-sides include a new original track, "Something You Can Never Know," along with covers of the Iron Maiden classic "Flight of Icarus" and Dio's "Egypt (The Chains Are On)."

The Ice Worm's Lair features brand new cover artwork by Dave Quiggle. The 12" will be released by the band's own Slumbering Souls imprint in association with Superhero Artist Management And Productions, LLC.
Holy cow! TGOS version of EGYPT! One of my alltime Dio favorites, can't wait to hear that one. Not to mention Flight Of Icarus...

"
When the world was milk and honey
And the magic was strong and true
The the strange ones came and the people knew

That the chains were on
That the chains were on

Cool - I saw that you had the Battleroar cd that I need as well. But - I couldn't find the TGOS cd in your webstore??

Conqueror is growing on me. While I don't care for the drawn-out closing song, most of the others seem pretty good so far

I've said it before, and I will say it again: This is a CRUSHING release for me, I've just finished my Conqueror review in my blog, for anyone interested! 8)

Simply a devastating album. Surely in my top 5 for this year so far.

Their best album so far, definitely! Karl Simon's vocals have greatly improved in comparison to their last album, in my opinion.
