SikTh’s long awaited new studio album The Future In Whose Eyes?, released on Millennium Night on 2^nd June has garnered praise across media in the UK and from further afield;

The vocals for The Future In Whose Eyes? were recorded by Mikee & and new co-vocalist and former member of Aliases, Joe Rosser at Mikee’s own studio & at Adrian Smith’s (Iron Maiden) R&R Studios, the guitars and drums at the renowned Monkey Puzzle House studios, produced by the band’s own Dan Weller , alongside Adam “Nolly” Getgood (Periphery) on mixing duties.

The Future In Whose Eyes? is also the first Sikth album to feature a guest vocalist – Spencer Sotelo from Periphery joins Mikee on the track “Cracks Of Light”, and to return the favour, Mikee recently joined Periphery on stage during their London headline show at The Forum in May.
