Threshold’s 2021 reissue of the direct-to-fan CD ‘Concert In Paris’ is now in stock at www.thresh.net/store

Recorded live during the band’s Hypothetical tour in 2001, it was the second of seven direct-to-fan releases that were designed to sit alongside the band’s official studio albums, providing concert recordings, deep cuts and rarities that were not available on the studio releases.

‘Concert In Paris’ track listing: Freaks, Turn On Tune In, Long Way Home, Change, Devoted, Light And Space, The Ravages Of Time, Paradox.

We’re very happy to announce that we’re doing a limited run reissue of Threshold’s first ever direct-to-fan CD ‘Decadent’, originally released in 1999. It’s available to pre-order now from www.thresh.net/store while stocks last.

Thank you to everyone who voted for which direct-to-fan album we should reissue first. It was a close vote and you essentially wanted all of them, so we’re going to release them in chronological order. Although many of the tracks on ‘Decadent’ have since been released as bonus tracks on later albums, there are still some rarities on there which we hope you’ll enjoy.

Threshold’s direct-to-fan CDs were designed to sit alongside the band’s official studio albums, providing concert recordings, deep cuts and rarities that were not available on the studio releases.

The UK festival HRH Prog X has been the rescheduled to 4-5 September 2021. You can find a statement from the organisers here:

https://www.loudersound.com/news/hrh-prog-x-reschedules-for-2021

Threshold will perform at the festival on the following dates:

  • 4 September – 02 Shepherd’s Bush Empire, London, UK
  • 5 September – 02 Academy, Sheffield, UK

The organisers hope to have the same bill and all tickets and hotels have been transferred automatically and all booking references will be the same.

Threshold are excited to confirm that they’ve started work on a follow-up to their 2017 double album ‘Legends of the Shires’.

As with most bands, Threshold’s plans have been heavily disrupted during 2020 with tours to Europe and Australia cancelled due to coronavirus.

Guitarist Karl Groom commented: “It’s a good feeling to have something positive to say about music again. We’ve been writing for a new Threshold album for a while now and are starting to exchange demos. Following ‘Legends of the Shires’ is quite a thing, but we’ve always aimed to take a step forward each album and I’m very excited by what we have so far!”

Threshold’s new album is expected to be released in 2021.

We’re sorry to announce that our club shows in September have been cancelled due to COVID-19 capacity restrictions. This affects our shows in Weert, Zoetermeer, Rheine and Aschaffenburg and fans are advised to contact their ticket sellers for a refund. Another consequence of the virus is that one of our band members is the primary carer for a vulnerable parent and does not feel safe to travel while there is a risk of contracting the virus. The safety of our loved ones is our greatest priority so unfortunately this means we will not be able to attend Artrock Festival this year. We’re really sorry to not be able to do these shows and we look forward to getting back on the road as soon as it’s possible.

Threshold are sorry to have to announce the inevitable cancellation of their upcoming Australian tour as a result of the health and travel issues caused by coronavirus.

Guitarist Karl Groom commented “We have long wanted to play for our fans in Australia and although the current situation is disappointing, we will do everything we can to arrange new dates. I hope everyone is well and look forward to the day Threshold are back out playing shows”.

All ticket buyers should contact their ticket service for refunds.

We’ve added one more date to our rescheduled run of shows in the Netherlands and Germany in September 2020. Hopefully the world will recover soon and we’ll be back out to see you.
