Whilst Ned Doheny was under contract to Polystar Records in Japan in early 90's, this obligated him to deliver an album. The tunes Ned wrote during that period were some of the most personal of his life, but the pressure to complete the album and the transformation he was undergoing obliged himself to release a body of work that was more demo than finished product. Ned mentioned about this on his official webiste, "I loved the tunes, but I hadn’t the time nor heart to take them to the next level. In the years following my divorce I had an opportunity to explore the underlying causes for my misadventures and these songs took on new meaning for me. I felt compelled to record them as I had always imagined them." Thus, Ned revisted his 90's tune and re-recorded those. The result is this album“The Darkness Beyond the Fire” in 2010. The album became available in Japan when Ned came to perform live in October 2010, sold at Billboard Live Tokyo and Osaka and limited number of copies has been distributed via several Japanese CD retailers including Amazon and HMV in Japan. As regards other territories including USA / Europe, the official site shows "Coming Soon". Hope everyone over the world will be able to get this great album easily soon.....
