| Wednesday, January 24, 2007 - Metal Heaven sign Chris Caffery | Press release from Metal Heaven:
CHRIS CAFFERY truly is one of the most respected and versatile guitarists in the Metal world of today. Starting in 1984 with the band HEAVEN, he first met producer Paul O'Neill who introduced Chris to US Metal legends SAVATAGE in 1987 and in 1996 Savatage's song "Christmas Eve Sarajevo" led to the formation of the extra-ordinary US Platinum act Trans-Siberian Orchestra. The latest TSO tour, in which Chris was the frontman as well as lead guitarist, sold one million tickets.
After numerous tours and recordings with these bands and other projects the time was finally right for CAFFERY's first solo album entitled "Faces" (2004) which was right away followed by the CD "W.A.R.P.E.D." in 2005. These releases for the first time saw CAFFERY also taking over the lead vocals duties. His band consists of Paul Morris (RAINBOW, DORO) on keyboards, Nick Douglas (DORO) on bass guitar, Jeff Plate (SAVATAGE, METAL CHURCH) and Yael (MY RUIN, FIREBALL MINISTRY) on drums as well as Dave Z on bass guitars.
"Pins And Needles" exactly continues here. The songs definitely are deadringers for any SAVATAGE fan once again. However, there is a more powerful, aggressive, experimental and focused attack that is sure to catch the ears of any metal fan. The album was produced by CAFFERY together with Nik Chinboukas at Nik's Hot Tracks Studio, Spin Studios and Happy Beaver Studios, Astoria, NY.
The ltd. edition first pressing of this release will be a digi-pack incl. the bonus track "Once Upon A Time".
