Steve Price from
ARFM
will be talking to Nick on his radio show on Saturday
July 12th. The show starts at 6pm so tune in to hear about
the new album, Oblivion, and whats coming up in the world of
Eden!
Nick has
also taken the time to explain the new album track by
track;
This album is quite different from the first. It’s more
melodic and it’s heavier, but hasn’t lost any of the
grooves that we had first time around. Lyrically it has
light and shade. Some tracks have a more serious “what’s
going on in the world today” content while others are
just…well…..lyrics…..about whatever! The important thing
for us was to write and record an album of catchy melodic
rock tracks that mixed up the 70s, 80s and 90s and had a
sprinkling of modern rock for flavour. Just put in the CD,
turn the fucker up and enjoy!
OBLIVION
I guess with all that’s going on around us at the moment,
it’s hard not feel the desire to put it into song! This has
an eastern flavour to it and is very anthemic. We decided
to put it as the opening track as it’s such a big song. One
line pretty much sums up the message of the song…”when we
bleed, we bleed the same”.
NOTHING
A great riff from Vince! All about how some people are
ignorant about other people. The way they stare at someone
because they dress different, how they look through someone
because they aren’t “normal”. What’s normal anyway?
KHARMA COMING
Vince doing his best Zakk Wylde. A monster riff and groove
in a track that is soooo good to play live. The song is a
no brainer really… “What goes around will come around”
HIGHER
A very “up” song and went down a treat on the recent House
of Lords tour.
AS GOOD AS IT GETS
One of my favourite tracks and the last one written for the
album. Very catchy and loads of groove. Another track that
went down a storm on the House of Lords tour.
THE LAST GOODBYE
Dedicated to Ray Gillan who is one of my greatest heroes
and inspirations. R.I.P. Ray.
I DON’T DO THE BLUES
An anti-love song. No crying over lost love, more like
“fuck you and on to the next”!
NEW TATTOO
This song came from a great grooving riff that was chopped
out of a song from the first album because it didn’t fit.
It was too good to waste though, so it was used in the
first song we wrote for this album.
FOR CRYING OUT LOUD
We went for an Audioslave mixed up with Lenny Kravitz vibe
on this track. A pretty unrelenting song!
SAY THAT YOU WILL
This was going to be a bonus track but Steve Newman said it
was one of his favourites and he would chuck his dolly out
of the pram if it didn’t make it to the album…. so here it
is. Written at the same time as “for crying out loud” and
in that Audioslave riffing vibe.
CAN’T SLOW DOWN
All about Extreme Sports fanatics, who are complete nutters!!
The heaviest track on the album.

Monday 10th March 2008
Z Rock Records are extremely proud to be able to
announce the signing of EDEN to a worldwide deal.
The UK outfit which features Nick Workman [Kick] and
Vince O'Regan [Bob Catley] have produced a solid melodic
hard rock album which bears no resemblance to the bands
previous outing “Open Minds”. Eden have progressed and
produced an album which features influences from
Whitesnake, Led Zeppelin and Queensryche to name but a
few. Oblivion could seriously be one of the best English
melodic hard rock albums of the last decade and that is
not said lightly.
Oblivion will be released on May 12th
There are live dates in the UK to support their eagerly
awaited new album, Oblivion. The band have acquired the
support slot for most of the House Of Lords May UK tour.
In addition the band have also been added to the Z Rock
08 line up on May 17th.
Tour Dates:
May 13th - London, Camden Underworld with House of Lords
