Official statement from Johan Dereborn about the future
April 17th, 2003 - by NetRoam
Just yesterday we have received the official word from Johan Dereborn what the plans are for E-type for the next 1½ years or so. Ever since the end of the Euro Metal Tour in March of 2003 there has been a lot of speculation going on as to what the future for E-type will be.
During the last few months a lot of discussing has been going on at our message boards as to the statement posted at our site last fall about Martin and Johan going Euro-country - and people were also sceptical about the Euro Metal Tour this winter. BUT we are now proud to be the first people to confirm - first of all - that Martin has decided to extend his cooperation with Stockholm records and that he right now has started the work with the next "traditional" E-type album. This means - NO euro-country or metal album, but a traditional E-type album.
Because of Martin's decision to start writing the new album he has dropped the prior plans of performing at some festivals this summer, so he can focus all his energy on the writing.
So to sum it all up ... Martin has started the work on the new traditional E-type album which will be released somewhere around winter. If everything goes well a few traditional promotion gigs will take place next spring and a BIG summer tour in summer 2004. This is what has been planned so far. Nothing has been arranged yet though, but we will be hoping for the best and for this plan to work out!
