Straight off the heels of releasing his critically acclaimed solo album, “Death in the Family”, ARCTIC FLAME drummer, Mike Paradine has begun recording his second effort.

With new co-writer Allen Carrescia, the album will again bring forward some personal experiences from Mikes past. Where his first CD explored the styles from rock to heavy metal, these new set of songs get trimmed down to the hard rock genre. 10 to 12 songs are planned for the album, including a cover of THIN LIZZY’s “Little Darling”.

Completion for the album is scheduled for the end of November but as Mike put it, “There’s always a dark cloud over me so I’m not expecting it”. Tentative title for the upcoming album is “Life Isn’t Fair, Too Fuckin’ Bad”.

Stay tuned for more news!
