Swedish cult act Master Massive is finally going to release a new studio album, called "White Shadows", to be released on July 10th through Fireflash Records (Wolf, Ruthless a.o.). The album is a pure and epic heavy metal gem, and unites traditional metal with progressive and doom elements. Master Massive was originally founded in the early 90s by guitar wizard Jan Strandh, who created the band out of the ashes of his predecessors ZANITY and ACT. With this new album, the band also decided to move forward with the three-vocalist concept, including Tony Niva (ex-LION'S SHARE, ZANITY), Viktor Gustafsson (LETHAL STEEL), and Marcus "Masken" Karlsson, who sang on the previous release "Black Feathers On Their Graves". On top, Anders Ericson (ex-BEYOND TWILIGHT) will continue as their live guitarist. "When the album was fully composed, I came to realize that it had become very dynamic and that it would be extremely demanding for a singer to deliver all the different falsettos I had in mind", explains Jan Strandh. "Masken was already on board, and we met regularly to go through the vocal parts. It was actually him, who mentioned that Tony would suit certain sections. I contacted Tony, and it turned out he was eager to give it a try. Max then played me the singer Viktor Gustafsson, who had just moved to Skövde. I thought he had an interesting timbre and a powerful, beefy vibrato. We got in touch with him, and he said yes. Now we had three singers who could do different things: Tony, who always gets the most difficult and highest parts - immensely musical and virtuosic. Masken, with his convincing, powerful, and massive distorto - extremely good with lyrics. And Viktor, who turned out to be a total dark horse, able to sing in a witchy, almost ugly way and then switch to singing beautifully and emotionally. All three singers have agreed to join the band. We're from different generations, we have different preferences, but what we share is a pounding heart for heavy metal."
