LATEST NEWSMarch 16, 2025IMAGES OF EDEN ANNOUNCES SUMMER HEADLINING MINI-TOUR:We are very excited to be able to announce our first headlining tour! This August, we will be taking a break from recording our 7th album to hit the road for a short, “Hometown” tour. This will feature a couple of key cities, ending at Immortal Fest in Versailles, OH. Since this will be our first headlining tour, we wanted to start off with only a handful of dates to see how things go and to get an idea of what we can expect out on our own. Based on the success of this run, we will have a better gauge as to if we can draw enough to go on a full tour, or at least expand to more cities on our next outing. That said, we apologize if we cannot make it to your hometown this time. There are so many places we would still like to play that we have not been able to visit as of yet, but rest assured, we will make it happen! For dates, ticket information and showtimes, visit our TOUR page. We will see you on tour! Dates are as follows: August 23 - The 44 Sports Grill - Glendale, AZ (with Sectas & Empire of Dezire) August 26 - Red Brick Room - Wichita, KS (with Cymbiance & Love Like War) August 27 - Knuckleheads - Kansas City, MO (with Love Like War) August 29 - BMI Center - Versailles, OH (Immortal Fest 2025- Multi-Band Festival) (Click poster to enlarge) 
April 26, 2024IMAGES OF EDEN RELEASES NEW SINGLE- "HERE COMES THE SUN":The day has arrived! Today marks the worldwide release of our brand new single, a remake of the 1969 Beatles classic 'Here Comes the Sun'! We are also commemorating our one year anniversary from being dismissed from the 2023 European tour with WASP, which is the actual reason behind the recreation of this classic. This is our story of resilience from the pain, heartbreak and loss we suffered from that experience. We were all tested and yet we still found a way to come out with a positive swing. We are a brand new, stronger IOE that keeps growing and building while we prepare to record our new full-length album. We were not looking for a cover song to do by any means, but after returning home from Europe, we were searching for positivity and direction while sitting in the early morning darkness watching the sunrise. It was here where we were smacked in the face- 'Here Comes The Sun'! This tells the story of our resilience and provides a platform to explain what really happened on the 2023 WASP tour. Sometimes bad things need to happen in order for us to find a way to endure, learn and grow, and this provides a perfect opportunity to give the fans something meaningful and how we can all turn something negative into a bright positive light. You hope you enjoy our modern take on this well-known classic. Please support Images of Eden and this new single by downloading it today from any of the major platforms and shine some light back into your life! We love you ALL and here we come!

(Click album art to enlarge) 
Official statement from the band... "Weathered And Torn” is by far the heaviest, most aggressive Images of Eden release to date. It is our own personal ‘reaction’ to the events that took place over the last few years, specifically with regards to COVID and how it affected our world. We did our best during this time to remain positive and to look for silver linings, but that was not always possible, especially after seeing how many lives have been negatively impacted, leaving wounds and scars that will need to be dealt with for years to come. Many of us were pushed beyond our breaking points, forcing us to “react” adversely, lashing out at each other. Even with a more aggressive delivery, “Weathered And Torn” still retains the signature IOE sound and message. Elements of strength, perseverance and hope for better days are all still at the forefront, but this time there is also an added urgency that we must stay vigilant, bond together and lift each other through darker times. Now go and be somebody’s hero! Change a life! Begin today! August 19, 2022IMAGES OF EDEN Announces "WEATHERED AND TORN" EP Release:We are pleased to announce that our 6th studio release, “Weathered And Torn" (5 song EP) will be available worldwide on Friday, September 16, 2022.

"The video we did for this song is totally EPIC!! We wanted to show the life struggles as a musician- the thankless job it is, the hard road, tough times and the heart and dedication it takes just to make it to the stage. I think we caught a “REAL” glimpse of that." - Steve D. Dorssom (Director) "We sort of received a 'nudge' or 'message' to do this song as an afterthought to the new 'Angel Born' record. Once we started recording/ filming, everything seemed to fall right into place and come together in a magical way! Triumph were tremendous in their day and this song has not been touched before so we thought it was the perfect song to do in 'IOE style'. It was definitely tough to cover but the message is exactly what we are all about and “Fight The Good Fight” is the most perfect anthem for the times we are facing in the world right now!"

April 23, 2020NEW VIDEO SINGLE, "AUTUMN IS BURNING" (from upcoming "Angel Born" album):We are extremely pleased to announce the release of our new video single, “Autumn Is Burning” (taken from our upcoming 5th studio album, “Angel Born” to be released later this year). This was the very last song written for the upcoming ”Angel Born” album, and is about an increasingly volatile society that leads to an inevitable martial law/ police state. The idea for the song flooded out in September, 2019 as an “afterthought”, but due to the intensity of the concept, we decided to do a music video for it. In December, 2019, we laid out a full script (treatment) depicting one man’s “end times” apocalyptic journey and how his faith and repenting leads him to safety. We were going to hold off and release this along with the “Angel Born” album but decided to release the video now due to its almost “prophetic” and haunting relevancy of the current state of the world in shutdown/ quarantine.

June 17, 2019IMAGES OF EDEN WELCOMES VICTOR MORELL ON LEAD GUITAR:We are very proud to announce that our brother, Victor Morell, has taken over the lead guitar duty for IMAGES OF EDEN so please take a moment to give Victor a big IOE welcome! Vic has a long history with us. Before joining IOE, he played guitar in Born Of Fire (where Gordon and Steve originally connected back in 2014). Before that, Steve had a 25 year band history with him in both Born of Fire and Psychic Pawn. We consider Victor a very close brother of many years and we cannot possibly be more proud to make this announcement. We are extremely excited to venture into this next chapter with him. Victor actually toured with Images of Eden this past spring to help us out on the road with equipment and (specifically) merchandise. Those of you who saw us on tour may have met him at the merchandise booth. He also shared the stage with us at 3 tour stops as a fill-in keyboard player when Dean Harris was unavailable. Not a cooler, more uplifting brother to have on the road. Welcome aboard, brother Vic!!!

December 12, 2017"Shield Me" Single to be released- 1/5/18"FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE- Images of Eden Announces New Single Release & Music Video- “Shield Me”. Phoenix, Arizona – 12/11/2017 – Images of Eden is releasing their first single, “Shield Me” on January 5, 2018 as an unsigned band while they shop record labels for a 2018 release of their full length CD, titled “Soulrise”, the long-awaited follow up to the 2011 release of “Rebuilding The Ruins” on Nightmare Records. The brand new album “Soulrise” was just recently completed December 2017 and was Produced by the legendary Bill Metoyer at Skull-Seven Studios in Hollywood, Ca. and is ready for pressing. When asked why there was such a delay between releases, vocalist Gordon Tittsworth replied, “There were so many changes within Images of Eden, lineup and beyond, that it took some time to reform and regain our bearings. But, I can assure our fans that this is the strongest, most solid lineup ever and there will no longer be long delays in between releases. We even have the follow up album to ‘Soulrise’ well on its way.” The music video is set to be unveiled at the same time of the track's release which will feature a new, fine-tuned lineup of Images of Eden with a huge video production as well as a more modern, updated sound. Tittsworth also states, “Our songwriting has evolved far beyond where I felt we were in 2011 and before. The earlier Images of Eden releases were primarily progressive hard rock/ metal, but our natural vibe/ feel has much more of a heavier, modern edge to it now, but still with our classic hard rock/ metal roots. We feel our sound is more accessible now to new fans and also to our current fan base. You will still know it is Images of Eden right away.” Manager Steve Dorssom promises this latest news is only the tip of the iceberg with a new record label search underway, and that the band has already completed the writing for the 5th release, tentatively titled, “Angel Born” and will be recording the album over the course of 2018 alongside the release of “Soulrise” and 2018 supporting tour. Fans should expect to hear even bigger news from Images of Eden in the very near future, and should check in at the band's official website and social media for the latest announcements."
November 27, 2017"Artists In Action" ArticleHere is a great article on Images of Eden in Artists In Action by Stephanie Sheffield. November 26, 2017Video Production/ "Soulrise" UpdateImages of Eden just completed filming the video for the upcoming single, "Shield Me" to be released in early 2018 while the band shops labels to officially release "Soulrise". At this time, the band also did a professional photo shoot and filmed interview (for later promotion). Also, Bill Metoyer is putting the final touches on the final mixes for "Soulrise". We will keep you posted. October 26, 2017Images of Eden CD #5While Bill Metoyer has been wrapping up the mixing/ mastering of "Soulrise", all of the material for the follow up CD (tentatively titled, "Angel Born") has been completed and Gordon has already began tracking rhythm guitar. The band will be working on recording all instruments/ vocals for "Angel Born" in Q1/Q2 of 2018 so that it will be ready to go when the time comes. June, 2017New Material (for the 5th Images of Eden CD)Writing has already begun on the 5th Images of Eden CD (follow up to "Soulrise"). The goal is to complete the writing of the follow up CD so that we are ready to "pull the trigger" in a timely manner after the release of Soulrise. There will no longer be any extensive delays in between Images of Eden releases as there had been in the past. The main reasons for any/all delays were due to a) the reforming of the Images of Eden lineup, and b) Gordon had taken time out to record a few side project releases (Born of Fire- "Dead Winter Sun", etc). From here on, there will be no more side projects and 100% of all focus will be on Images of Eden. April, 2017Legendary producer, Bill Metoyer, to mix SoulriseImages of Eden is extremely pleased to have teamed up with legendary producer, Bill Metoyer (Skull Seven Studios) to mix and master "Soulrise". Bill is a 30 year veteran producer and worked for Metal Blade records for many years. He has worked with many well-known bands (Slayer, Fates Warning, WASP, Flotsam And Jetsam, etc). We are thrilled to have him on board!! September 2,2016IMAGES OF EDEN is wraping up demos for SOULRISEIt has been a long time coming.
