Black vinyl with insert. Limited 400 copies

Not only did the multi-talented multi-instrumentalist Chris TheProfessor Black release three solo albums he also managed to recordHigh Spirits fifth studio album Hard To Stop. The title could verywell refer to Chris Black himself as he seems unstoppable.Actually, I did slow down for a bit, laughs Chris Black. TheProfessor Black albums and recent Aktor album Placebo were recordedmostly in 2017 and early 2018. Then in 2019 I was recording withPharaoh and Mike Bushur´s new project Forbidden Cross. It felt likea quiet year. Aktor and Pharaoh are active bands, but only in thestudio. High Spirits and my solo act Professor Black are alsoperforming live. Dawnbringer and Superchrist are stone deadforever. And Forbidden Cross is up to Mike, I just play the drums.One thing which always strikes me personally when I listen to HighSpirits is the fact that the band´s music is so uplifting: nothappy, not cheesy, just uplifting. That is an forgotten art inheavy metal, isn´t it? Chris smiles: That is, I think, preciselywhat brings us together, what connects us with our fans, and wetake it very seriously. I think the record has a lot of variety,and it´s best to listen to the whole thing. Of course each listenerwill have her or his own favorites. Right now my favorite is AllNight Long. Hearts Will Burn is probably the closest High Spiritswill ever get to classic Euro Metal Helloween-style, right? Hmm…Not the opening track, Since You´ve Been Gone?, asks The Professor.But you´re right, German power metal is a big influence on HighSpirits, just not always so easy to notice. Hearts Will Burnreminds me more of a certain American band, or maybe a Swedish one,but that´s cool. Voice In The Wind, on the other hand, is quiteunusual for High Spirits, almost like pop punk meeting Crusaderperiod Saxon. The album also includes a re-working of Midnight Sun,why did the band decide to re-record this number? We came to findin the past couple of years that Midnight Sun is quite a popularsong, Chris answers, and meanwhile the only recording available wasthe demo version from 2013. That´s quite okay, but I think weshould have a more professional version as well, maybe now the songwill really blast into the top tier along with Another Night In TheCity and High Spirits etc.
