Secret Chiefs 3 - very good news for fans...

i know there's at least one other SC3 fan here somewhere, and the rest of you would be if you knew what was good for you finally the next installment Book of Souls is underway, but i think i'm just as excited about the releases from the satellite bands! (for those who don't know, there are 7 planets [bands] in the one constellation [SC3])
Secret Chiefs 3. Yes, seemingly dormant for long periods, this dragon is about to begin to whip its tail like never before:
A slew of SC3 related 7" records slated for Fall. Anticipating the Secret Chiefs 3 "Book of Souls", this Fall we will be putting out several 7" recordings --- these will include offerings from SC3 satellite bands, the Electromagnetic Azoth. Ishraqiyun, UR (at least three, maybe four of them!) and Traditionalists. These recordings will NOT be on the upcoming SC3 album (except for an alternate version of one song, maybe a second), and will be limited to 1000 copies each! We'll try not to slay you too bad on the price just for the 'rarity'; but they'll be on good vinyl and printed extra nicely, so they won't exactly be cheap either. A lot of this shit will NEVER be available on CD. We seek to respect and promote the 7" medium as never before! So no, the material here is anything but "throwaway", as sometimes is the prevailing habit.
A SC3 retrospective CD with bonus rare tracks etc. gears us up for "Book of Souls". Gearing up for the "Book of Souls" release will be a retrospective CD of SC3 music over the years, called "Path of Most Resistance", which will feature selections from the previous albums and some rare tracks and video. Not neccesarily essential for hardcore fans (except for the bonus material), but it will definately be useful to introduce new listeners to the daunting output of the SC3 (finally an answer to "which one should I start with?"). It's also going to be a good promotion tool on the cusp of the SC3 next mega opus.
In all, around eight SC3 related releases slated for Fall, and it's just the beginning! Book of Souls, early 07. Also hitting ground in early 07 will be the new UR album. (It's actually closer to being bagged than the SC3!!!) An Ishraqiyun album is also getting close. Bang! A Masada release for Zorn from Secret Chiefs 3 is tentatively slated for May. That's right... And before anyone asks about Holy Vehm, and Electromagnetic Azoth full lengths, the answer is "yes" -- recording began on those last June. After completion of SC3 and UR, final work will commence in full on those in late Fall.
