Jason States: The new version of the song "Queen of the Galaxy" (2015) is a re-recording from the band's EP of the same name and will once again feature Unleash the Archers vocalist Brittney Slayes. "I always knew I would want to redo a song from one of the first Dire Peril EP's as the production was never quite there in terms of what I wanted for the band. When the time came to choose a song, I felt this one fit the theme of the album perfectly."
"The theme behind the album is that each song is based off a different sci-fi related film: Predator, The Day the Earth Stood Still, Enemy Mine, K-PAX, Forbidden Planet, Total Recall, Barbarella, Starship Troopers, The Thing, The Riddick Series and 2001: A Space Odyssey".
"I can't wait to get this album out. It has been a long time coming for Dire Peril to release a full length and honestly something that should have happened long ago. We are hard at work right now getting this album recorded and more news will follow to include the album release date".
