In a recent interview with This Day In Metal, vocalist Stu Block revealed exciting news for Into Eternity fans: a new studio album is in the works. Block emphasized the band’s commitment to quality, stating, “We’re taking our own time… We don’t have a record label breathing down our neck, so we wanna release something that we’re very happy with.”
Block also teased a personal project, mentioning a solo album in the making. He kept the collaborating musicians under wraps, but promised they’re “a few amazing musicians that a lot of people know.”
Frank Hetzel has been a giant in the Seattle metal community for many years – so much so that it’s been said that any metal band who played in the city was booked through him. After securing national and international bands to grace the stages of Seattle, he started to create his own music through Beltfed Weapon, using the connections he had made to secure guest and session musicians to appear on the band’s EPs. The band’s latest single, “Tortured Within,” features Stu Block on lead vocals. Stu famously replaced Matt Barlow as the frontman of Iced Earth in 2011, before rejoining his original band Into Eternity in 2021. He also has collaborated and recently performed with Annihilator, the highest selling metal act ever from his native Canada, amongst many other projects that he’s involved in. Stu has one of the more impressive vocal ranges in metal today, consistently showcasing his ability to produce deep guttural death growls and octave defying air raid siren shrieks that are equal parts impressive. Ed had the opportunity to speak with Stu and Frank for about 50 minutes about a number of topics.
