Aeon Zen last month introduced new guitarist Alistair Bell, who joined the ranks after Matt Shepherd bowed out amicably. Bell said: "I've been extremely busy writing solos for the upcoming record. The new material is significantly heavier than any of the previous albums - it's fantastic. We'll see you out on the road!"

Gallego is currently touring the UK in support of recent The Algorithm album Octopus4, with accompaniment by Uneven Structure drummer Jean Ferry.
