From the Heart is the third and final album by American deathrock band Shadow Project, released in 1998 by Hollows Hill Records.

Production

[edit]

After Shadow Project's first split in 1993, Rozz Williams and Eva O divorced (but remained friendly) and Williams' heroin addiction increased. In 1997, they would once again reunite to record From the Heart. Nathan Van Hala of Christian metal group Saviour Machine was drafted to fill in the keyboard duties.[1]

Musical style

[edit]

Considered a departure from previous albums, From the Heart included band material from previous records stripped down to just acoustic guitar and vocal duets.[2]

Themes

[edit]

Released in 1994, Eva O's first solo debut shocked fans: she had converted to Christianity, and crafted a born-again concept album titled Demons Fall for an Angel's Kiss.[3]
