It's been 4 years in the making but finally epic rockers *shels new album "Plains Of The Purple Buffalo" is available for pre-orders on their own label home website www.shelsmusic.com.
The album is set for worldwide release through Shelsmusic on June 27th, 2011.

Front man Mehdi Safa says: "it's been a tough 4 years- hard, but rewarding... juggling various different projects along with the label, and our day jobs too- we've been through some of the greatest personal highs and lows ever and our lives have changed so much during the writing and recording of this album... we've learned so much and we've tried to put everything in these tracks"
