Times Of Grace, the new project featuring Jesse Leach of Seemless/ex-Killswitch Engage fame and Killswitch Engage guitarist Adam Dutkiewicz, has been shelved by the groups label for the time being. Leach himself had the following to offer on the situation:
“I have gotten more emails & messages than I can count about this project. First of all thank you so much for your interest! I am very happy to announce I just listened to the album for the first time in months the other day & it reduced me to tears. I couldn’t be more proud of it & happy that Adam & I finally made a record after years of talking about it.
So now on to the “bad news” for all of you anxious people. The “record label” that picked this album up has in fact shelved it for an unspecified amount of time. This has been done for strategic & political reasons… This is why you haven’t heard any updates from me etc. etc. I am trying my best to keep it out of my head. I feel like the masterpiece of my career is just sitting there. I of course can’t let anyone hear it or really give any more details. Lets just hope this record label know exactly what they are doing. So in reality I don’t think this album will see a release this year at all. Lets hope it makes it out in 2010.”
Jesse Leach has been busy as of late with another project emerging recently called The Empire Shall Fall. The band have recently finished up tracking the drums for their new effort and are continuing forward with the sessions for the outing. The band hope to have it all wrapped up by August.
