PRETTY MAIDS New Album, Single Releases

PRETTY MAIDS Announce New Album, Single Releases; Audio Samples Available








PRETTY MAIDS' new studio album, Pandemonium, will be released on May 14th in Europe, and June 8th in North America via Frontiers.

A 90 second preview of the single 'Little Drops of Heaven', which will precede the album, is now available for streaming at this location.

Produced by Jacob Hansen (who has also worked with VOLBEAT, ROB ROCK, BEYOND TWILIGHT), Pandemonium with its melodic approach is a definite return to the Future World / Red Hot And Heavy era of the eighties, but with an updated sound and freshness that consolidates that Pretty Maids are as strong as ever.

“I think this new record shows the band in it's finest moment”, says singer Ronnie Atkins. “That’s definitely our best effort in many years and the spirit in the band is higher than ever”.

This album also introduces keyboard player Morten Sandager as a permanent member of the band and his impact is evident on the tracks of the CD, particularly on the hauntingly melodic new single 'Little Drops of Heaven' which will be released – only as a digital download, as an exclusive teaser leading to the album’s release, on April 13th worldwide.








Written in the fall 2009 and recorded in the winter 2010, Pandemonium will be supported by several festival appearances during the summer of 2010 and then followed by a full scale European tour in October/November 2010.

As previously reported, Pretty Maids have enlisted former KING DIAMOND bassist Hal Patino.

Says the band: "Hal Patino has been a friend of the band since the eighties, and is familiar with the sound, style and history of the band, and was therefore a natural choice to take the spot as the new bass player.

Hal Patino will play his first gig with Pretty Maids on Saturday, May 8th of in Aalborg, Denmark, and we welcome Hal onboard, and hope you all will give him a good reception on the upcoming Pandemonium tour. And, oh yeah... 10 days!"

Pretty Maids recently finished shooting the video for the single 'Little Drops Of Heaven', under the direction of Thomas Tjader (SAINT DEAMON), taken from the forthcoming Pandemonium album. Check out the clip below.
