Recent press release quote from Chris Petersen for Ian at Pivotal Alliance:

“Our lineup at present is as cohesive as it has ever been, with a common vision equally adopted by all members. Assembled with a great deal of persistence and choosiness, this band has developed immensely into a highly efficient musical machine. Pristine personal circumstances have allowed for a fully collaborative, focused effort, with each member devoting the necessary time and energy to bring their parts to the highest standards yet.

Our current EP “Honor Forth” demonstrates this development, as well as the versatility of which CELLADOR can move, while retaining the unique energy level that stands out from bands in the melodic metal genres. There is a certain spice of aggression that we always strive for in the writing process that is not necessarily just speed, but drama of voice, potency of lyrics, groove, and dynamic. With Petersen having assumed the vocalist spot and helming more of the production effort, the vision of each song as it was composed is now better transmuted to the recordings, achieving an end product much more representative of what CELLADOR strives for.

The band is in full promotional cycle for “Honor Forth” and has established itself with a slew of shows already across the Colorado region. We anticipate touring offers for the band to continue to come in as we begin receiving more and more feedback on our live shows and our EP. We are also at the midpoint of preproduction for our next release which is expected to be recorded and mixed this Summer. We’re excited for the new friends we are making, and flattered at the devotion and enthusiasm of our international fanbase.” – Chris Petersen CELLADOR
