Yes, a Cirith Ungol song was played live by Dexter Ward at the Up The Hammers Festival in Greece last week. Dexter Ward is a quite new band formed last year that features two former members of Battleroar. The cover they played was Go It Alone from the Paradise Lost album. It was performed at the warmup show 04 Mar 2010.

Its one of our favourite band of all times. I speak with Greg and Robert from time to time trying to convice them to play at Up the Hammers festival something that can't work. We chosen the song for many reasons. One of them  and the most important is that we love the song as every Cirith Ungol song ever written. The song has also a lyrical theme that is what me and Marco wanted to express after our departure from battleroar. We were born with a 6 string in our hands and we'll go it alone hehe.

Because of multiple spam attacks the recent days, ip logging and captcha has been added to the registerform and commentfields. It's no big deal, it only means you have to enter a security code before submitting.

Well, the song is not exactly new. It was written already in 1976 by Greg Lindstrom and is actually a unreleased Cirith Ungol-song! Falcon re-recorded this in 2004, but it remained unreleased until today. Read more about the original Cirith Ungol song here and Falcon's re-recording here.

The song is called Bad Scene and is available on the Falcon fanpage on facebook, but you don't need a facebook account to hear it. Flash required though.

Rest in peace.

It was announced that Falcon would possibly do a special night on Headbangers Open Air-festival, Germany in Summer 2010. This will unfortunately not happen. Read the whole case here.

As the official website is currently down, and who knows when and if it will return, a new webpage is now up. I've always wanted to do one, so finally I took the step to actually realize it. Any comments, corrections and additions are welcomed. In opposite to other Cirith Ungol webpages, this site will not only cover Cirith Ungol, but also related stuff.

Enjoy!

Webmaster.
