Poetry for the Poisoned by Kamelot : CD released on 9/14/2010

American/Norwegian Metal KAMELOT are back with their 9th studio album, "Poetry For The Poisoned". Initially written in the remote woods of Norway, and with final songwriting sessions completed in Germany, the dynamic compositions of "Poetry For The Poisoned" take the listener on an emotional journey that touches both the mind and soul with its mix of Progressive elements, dark arts, Modern Rock, and Power Metal!

"I think this album is by far our most diverse, fusing new ideas and elements along with the traditional KAMELOT sound and style that we have established over the years," states KAMELOT guitarist Thomas Youngblood. "It comes at a time where many people around the world are searching for something to grab on to spiritually, including myself. I recently lost my mother and to be honest it was very hard on me. So there are some melancholy moods reflected on this album."

"Poetry For The Poisoned" was recorded at Gate Studios, Germany with producers Sascha Paeth and Miro and featuring guests, Simone Simons (EPICA), Gus G. (OZZY OSBOURNE, FIREWIND), Björn "Speed" Strid (SOILWORK) and Jon Oliva (SAVATAGE, JON OLIVA'S PAIN).

Available in three versions (Regular CD edition, Digipak CD with bonus DVD and 2LP gatefold vinyl edition), "Poetry For The Poisoned" has proven to be KAMELOT's longest and toughest production to date and will surely please their legions of fans as well as attract new believers into the realm of KAMELOT!
