Hi, everyone! Happy Halloween, for those young enough to beg for candy
- or old enough to give it out. Promised Land should be
pretty universally available by now. I’d especially like to find out
whether it’s available as a domestic release or import in countries where
there are few Screaming in Digital readers - Austria, The Bahamas,

Hi, everyone! Sorry this is a few hours later than usual, the new

along with quite a bit of other material.

In other news, the digest has finally passed the 1,500
subscriber mark. Thanks, everyone, for making this so successful
for all these months! It seems like it’s been a long time, but
to put it in perspective, the digest started one year after the
release of Empire.

Two more weeks! I’ve heard reports that The Promised
Land was actually recorded between 1992 and 1994. If that’s the
case, the guys certainly can’t be accused of rushing the project.
It was reportedly produced by Queensryche and James Barton.
A few very lucky people are actually getting to hear
all or part of the album already, and from their reports below,
it sounds like this one’s a winner.
