I was very excited to start working on the NEW CREATION album. I have all the songs written, however God has been placing some changes in my direction. While I still plan on recording NEW CREATION, it will now be the final installment in my TRILOGY. I am proceeding with SEASON OF THE DYING as the second installment. Many factors have played a role in this decision, but I am very confident that it's the right one.
I, like many others, have been coping with a lot of mental health complications, and have been suffering in the process. The road with Christ is not always an easy one, and there are forces always trying to divert us from that path. I have experienced a lot of these diversions, and felt it was time to document some of the things I have been dealing with through my music.
Since I was a young boy I fell in love with the music of THE CURE. "Disintegration" is probably the most important artistic creation that has guided my musical journey. I have always wanted to record an album that takes me back to my Gothic roots, and this will be that album.
My first single off the record, ENTITY, will debut on May 1st, 2020, the first day of Mental Health Awareness month. This is the cause closest to my heart, as I have lived with OCD and Bipolar Disorder my entire life. Of course we didn't know what these things were in the 80's, but it's wonderful to finally have these classifications in order to receive the proper medication and treatment. But that doesnt always ensure full control of our minds.
ENTITY is my prayer to God pleading with him to understand just how real the struggle is in maintaining control of a vessel that is flawed as the human mind. At the song's crescendo, God sends me an Angel who comforts me. That angel is performed by my dear friend and brilliant musical artist CHELSEA LYN MEYER. It's always been a dream of mine to work with her and I cannot express how grateful I am that she agreed and gave such passionate performance.
The full album "DAIMON PRICE II: Season of the Dying" has a target release date of October 1st, 2020! I am so thrilled to be working alongside my friend and producer KEVIN SOFFERA at Hybrid Studios, along with my beloved son Jareth at my side on the Bass Guitar! This should be a very exciting year!
