Claims Shaw: \"Style-wise is very much in the vein of Candlemass, Memento Mori, King Diamond and Notre Dame.\"
In the autumn of 2006 Snowy Shaw did lead and backing vocals for several tracks on the album \"Opera Diabolicus\". This cd will be mixed in June by King Diamond guitarist Andy La Rocque at Andy\'s Los Angered Recordings.
Shaw / Helgesson was named Therion\'s new singer in October 2006. The group\'s new album, \"Gothic Kabbalah\", was released in January 2007 via Nuclear Blast Records. Snowy shares the vocal duties on the album with Mats Levén (Yngwie Malmsteen, Krux, At Vance) and two female singers.
