TAROT — the Finnish group led by NIGHTWISH/ex-SINERGY bassist Marco Hietala — will release its ninth studio album, "Gravity Of Light", on April 23 via Nuclear Blast Records (excluding Finland). A tour will follow, including a stop in Moscow, Russia as well as a number of summer festival appearances.
Check out the "Gravity Of Light" artwork below.
TAROT has been confirmed for this year's ProgPower USA XI festival, set to take place September 8-11 in Atlanta, Georgia.
An e-card for "Undead Indeed", the latest DVD from TAROT, can be accessed at this location.
"Undead Indeed" topped the Music DVD chart in Finland in its first week of release.
The two-DVD and two-CD versions of "Undead Indeed" were made available in Finland on June 11, 2008.
"Undead Indeed" was filmed/recorded on August 17, 2007 at club Rupla in Kuopio, Finland with director Harri Mielonen.
A one-and-a-half-minute trailer for "Undead Indeed" can be viewed below.
TAROT released its latest album, entitled "Crows Fly Black", in continental Europe in January 2007. The CD was issued in Finland in October 2006.
TAROT's first single from "Crows Fly Black", "You", entered the national chart in Finland at position No. 1. The single contained two tracks: A straight-forward classic heavy metal song "You", taken from the CD, and a BLUE ÖYSTER CULT cover, "Veteran of the Psychic Wars".

It was about time, to post this MFF, you idlers.
I'm kidding, of course. ;-)
Cheers !

I hope they come to Croatia...

That is a seriously awesome cover! I'm just getting into Tarot now (I'm a little late, I know) and I'm looking forward to their new stuff.

@ Ena: I hear you! I hope they come to Canada!
CanuckFan wrote on 06.02.2010 at 18:34
They gotta come to America. And do an actual tour here, not just one stop!
TheVoiceInYourHead wrote on 06.02.2010 at 23:30
And they need to come to The Netherlands!
You know what, Janne should take a brake from EToS, Marco from his side projects, including NW (or just leave NW, would be even better in my opinion), and Zack, Tommi and Pecu from their regular work and music projects.
Then Tarot can do a full world tour!
Or if they'd only do a full festival tour around the world in would be so very nice!

I say we all make a motherfucking petition for TAROT to do a full world tour! And all chip in some to help with the costs. ;) If they do a stop in London I will gladly put them all up in a lovely warm house filled with plenty of booze and pander to their every need. xD

@ Jon
Good idea! I'll make everybody around me sign the petition too! and offourse I'll sign as well.
They can stay at my house when they are in The Netherlands. And since we have a second house not far from the German border, they can stay there for a gig in Germany (not whole Germany I think..)

The orange-blue contrast stikes again.

Sweet, can't wait for the release :) I hope they come to the US, thought that is probably a really long shot.

If they're going to ProgPower, they're probably going to tour here.
Jeremy wrote on 08.02.2010 at 23:03
@ Jeremy: I hope so, but I more fervently hope they come to somewhere accessible to me in Canada!

For those who want to see what Tarot looked like in 1987:

Yay! So excited for this. Just got into Tarot in the past few months and they are f'ing AMAZING. Marco has the golden touch. Haha. Everything he's involved with I like.
