Deadly Circus Fire are facing a race against time to secure crowdfunding for their second album.
The follow-up to acclaimed debut The King And The Bishop has been recorded and it’s in the process of being mixed – and they’ve released a video for lead track House Of Plagues by way of a taster.
The London four-piece need to raise £10,000 to pay for the project. Their campaign runs for another 22 days, and they’re £8000 short – and due to the terms of their Pledge campaign, no money will be collected unless the full amount is promised by fans.
Guitarist Save Addario tells Prog: “It’s all or nothing and time is running out. If we make it, the album will be released to pledgers around November 24. The public released has been scheduled for early 2015. And if we exceed the target, 10% of any money after that will be donated to the Teenage Cancer Trust.
“So you can help make our second album a reality – and help a very worthy cause at the same time.”
Pledge points start at £8 and include signed CDs, DJ sets, VIP tickets and other items. Find out more.

Not only is one-time online news editor Martin an established rock journalist and drummer, but he’s also penned several books on music history, including SAHB Story: The Tale of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, a band he once managed, and the best-selling Apollo Memories about the history of the legendary and infamous Glasgow Apollo. Martin has written for Classic Rock and Prog and at one time had written more articles for Louder than anyone else (we think he's second now). He’s appeared on TV and when not delving intro all things music, can be found travelling along the UK’s vast canal network.
