EMPIRES OF EDEN: Stu Marshall discusses new releases and studio work

Australian guitar master STU MARSHALL (EMPIRES OF EDEN, Ex-Dungeon) discusses his project EMPIRE OF EDEN and the collaboration with RONNY MUNROE for the album Lords of the Edge and some of the updates on Dragonsclaw's latest work at his Frontier Studios in Sydney, on this video of ArmyOfOneTV.

Compared to other collaborative projects of this kind, Empires of Eden is unique in the extent to which the guest vocalists are involved with the writing of the songs themselves. According to Marshall, although he tailors the instrumental backing to each singer's individual style and preferred range, "They are completely at liberty to write any lyrics they want, and they pen the vocal melodies themselves, too." Having so much artistic freedom not only increases the vocalists' enthusiasm for the project, but also enables them to deliver their best possible performances, unbounded by the usual constraints of the 'guest musician' format.

Although the details of which world-wrecking stars will be featured on the third album are shrouded in contractual secrecy, one name has been revealed so far: Ronny Munroe of Metal Church fame. Considering that Munroe has enlisted Marshall's cooperation in writing and producing his own forthcoming record, there really wasn't any way to keep this one quiet.

With lush, picturesque orchestral arrangements, bone-crushing riffs, kaleidoscopic soloing and spectacular vocal performances, Empires of Eden has developed a trademark sound that redefines the concept of epic.
