Shadows Fall drummer Jason Bittner has issued an update about his first-ever drum book: \"Out of the Shadows - The Drumming of Jason Bittner and Shadows Fall\".\"This book will include full transcription charts for the whole \"War Within\" record, three songs off \"Art of Balance\" (Thoughts, Destroyer, Idiot Box), plus three songs from \"Fallout\" (In Effigy, Will to Rebuild, and Going, Going, Gone). Also included will be a play-along cd of the entire \"War Within\" album without drum tracks so the listener can play along as well, as well as my three-part \'double-bass crash course\' that was printed this year in Modern Drummer, plus interviews, pics, etc.\"
In related news: Drum! magazine will be featuring a piece on the making of the new Shadows Fall record sometime in early 2007... as well as a new double bass column that Bittner wrote for the February 2007 issue.
Shadows Fall have set \"Threads of Life\" as the title of their new album, tentatively due in the spring via Atlantic Records. The Grammy-nominated band\'s follow-up to 2004\'s critically acclaimed \"The War Within\", and its companion release, 2006\'s \"Fallout from the War\" (both released on Century Media Records) was recorded at Studio 606 in Northridge, CA with producer Nick Raskulinecz (Foo Fighters, Stone Sour, Rush).
