Fairwood Studios has announced today the planned release of the full "Blood Saga" album from Cornish black metal band Morgawr for the Rock Band Network. The announcement comes after an earlier agreement for Fairwood Studios to produce "Herlathing", one track from the album. Morgawr is the fourth band to officially announce a full-album project for the Network.

"Morgawr has been a very enthusiastic group for this project," said Rob Witko, owner of Fairwood Studios. "We constantly aim to bring small artists to the spotlight, and we think this project will give Morgawr the exposure they deserve."

The full list of tracks Fairwood Studios will be producing is:

• "Heathen Battlecry"
• "Lindisfarne"
• "Raise the Shieldwall"
• "Bifrost (Incarnation of Fire)"
• "Dawn (Blood Saga I)/Through the Maelstrom"
• "Bloodlust (Blood Saga II)"
• "Herlathing"
• "Frost (Blood Saga III)"

All tracks will be released for $0.99, £0.59 UK, €0.79 EU (80 Microsoft Points for Xbox 360) per track. Tracks will be released starting this summer.
