HEAVY METAL XMAS! You can now download the just recently recorded song Avenged for free at the media page, where you can also find the lyrics.

Avenged was written by Johan in the very beginning of Winter Dawn, if not even back when the band was called Eternity and had a more straight-forward heavy metal sound. The song is to be considered a bonus track and isn't totally representative of our sound these days, but we still play it every once in a while to get the crowd going.

Thanks to everyone who attended the gig in Hova, and horns up for the great performance by Sideburn! The release of the new songs have been a bit delayed due to Simons struggle with illness, but we will hopefully enter the studio again next week. Some good news though, we can hardly believe how many t-shirts we've managed to sell already, big thanks for the support! New ones will be printed soon since we ran out of size L and need some other sizes as well.

Another gig is coming up, on the best day of the year (11/11/11, the release date of Skyrim, Sonata Arctica - Live in Finland, Nightwish - Storytime etc.) in Ungdomens hus in Tibro. We'll hit the stage at around 19, then head straight for the Pain + Raubtier gig in Mariestad. Hoping you all will follow, Winter Dawn (Anders)

There's a lot going on right now! Me and Adde have for example just finished creating the new design for the website. This week we also received a bunch of t-shirts which you can buy from members or at our gigs for 150 SEK. We are also in the process of moving to another place to rehearse which is a bit bigger and closer to most members.

On October 29. we will play a gig in Hova, where you can expect a guest assisting us in performing a new song! On top of this we're currently recording two songs which we hope to release in a few weeks, they're quite old songs that we've played live for a while but haven't recorded properly yet. For more updates make sure to follow us on Facebook, stay metal! /Anders
