Here's what the press raved about Circle Of Fate's 'Back To Life 'CD:
"As Circle Of Fate brings on their heavy repertoire, they may be one of the best bands blending classic hard rock sensibility with modern rock trends, and that in itself is quite an accomplishment. Recommended!" - Dangerdog Music Reviews
"Overall, the band is tight, seamlessly transitioning from hard, metallic riffing to melodic choruses and killer instrumental work. In particular, their ability to change tempo within a song keeps the listener anticipating their next move." - Hard Rock Haven
"Given a few spins, this one grows on you. It's good tradesmen like performance highlighting Caruso's vocal and Charatin's rather tasty guitar playing. Keep an eye on this outfit for sure!" - Glory Daze Music Magazine
"Circle Of Fate will be the biggest band out of Chicago since the Smashing Pumpkins!" - Rocktober Magazine
In recent news, Circle Of Fate has been asked to perform on Chicago's Late Night TV program 'Seven On Ridge'. Danny explains, "We recently were asked to play for the 'press release' for the show 'Seven On Ridge', which is a new late night show in Chicago. We were booked for a slot on the show and they had to change the date due to extra taping they needed to do for producers in China. We will post the date we will be on once it's announced. The host of the show is Michael Essany and he formerly had his own show on the E network." You can see more on the show at www.sevenridge.com
In the past year Circle of Fate has returned to the studio to record a new album, in which the new single "The Other Side Of Me" will be featured on "The new material we are recording will be our 5th CD for original members Danny and I," explains Michele "With two new members on this CD we are very excited that this will give COF a fresh 'edge' in the music scene while keeping our own unique style. This extra 'edge' will keep Circle of Fate in the public eye and our fans wondering, 'What will this band do next?' This new CD will cross new thresholds for our band and will take us to the next level." Adds Danny, "The new CD still contains much of Michele's catchy melodies and strong lyrics, but the music has reformed to having a different edge to it than in the past. We started off on a lighter note on past CDs such as 'Shades Of Gray' and 'Inner Sanctum', which were more melodic. 'Dawn Of A New Era' was much heavier. The new album being put together contains a couple of strong ballads along with heavier faster paced songs such as 'Too Much', 'What If' and our new single 'The Other Side Of Me'.
We believe when the album is finished it will be a great listen from beginning to end with a nice flow from song to song, so when the CD is finished playing you are wanting more." Producer extraordinaire Eric Greedy, who has worked with such music legends as Paul McCartney, George Harrison, Ringo Starr, Elton John, Steven Tyler, Brian Wilson, Rage Against The Machine, Guns & Roses (the list goes on and on), produced two songs on the new CD. Also, formerly from Slash's Snakepit, Matt Laug played drums on the two tracks. Both cuts wre mastered by industry legend Big Bass Brian, who's impressive list of clients include the likes of Alice Cooper, Black Eyed Peas, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Eric Clapton, George Harrison, Grateful Dead, Hall & Oates and Kiss, just to name a few.
In closing the band has this to impart to their fans and listeners, "We have been together for over 15 years now and truly appreciate all of the support of our fans and listeners. You mean everything to us. We work very hard to not only put out great studio albums but to put on great live performances as well. As always, please spread the word and Step into the Circle... You'll be glad you did!"
