Detroit's
WALLS OF JERICHO is wrapping up work on its new EP, to be released in March 2008 on
Trustkill. Produced by
SLIPKNOT/
STONE SOUR frontman
Corey Taylor at his Iowa home studio, the CD will be included with
WALLS OF JERICHO's
"Live in South America" DVD, which was filmed this past August. In addition to frontwoman
Candace Kucsulain's singing voice, heretofore only glimpsed in rare moments on
WALLS OF JERICHO's albums, the upcoming release will feature acoustic instruments, fleshed out arrangements, and
Taylor's voice on several songs.
Taylor met
WALLS OF JERICHO when the band shared the stage with
STONE SOUR on
The Family Values Tour. He previously said in a statement, "I love this band, and the fact that their trust in me makes me incredibly grateful. I'm so excited to do this — it's going to be amazing!!! I've never produced anything like this before, so I'm going a little crazy. I can't wait."
WALLS OF JERICHO is fronted by
Candace Kucsulain, who defines the word "intense," whether melodically singing or delivering earth-shattering screams. Rounded out by
Chris Rawson (guitar),
Mike Hasty (guitar) and
Aaron Ruby (bass) the band has been touring relentlessly in support of its third album,
"With Devils Amongst Us All".
