Founder Bob “BB” Ballinger has announced the CD will be titled “Driven by Fear” and the band is recording at a new studio with Matt DiFabio (Single Bullet Theory, Hard Attack Entertainment) as Engineer and Associate Producer and Peter Baltes (Accept) overseeing the project as Executive Producer.

The new cover art work has been completed by Timo Wuerz (www.timowuerz.de) from Germany who has worked with Halloween and Steel Assassin.

“We are 5 songs in with guitars and Matt has helped us create some amazing guitar tones, as we are pushing for this album to be much heavier sounding without losing our traditional metal sound and dynamics. That’s where Peter’s experience and excellence will be present by making sure we maintain the integrity of our style and stay true to the metal.”

Ballinger also noted that the band welcomes Drew Foster as their new bassist. Drew has been involved with Power Theory for 4 years now with photography, video, web design, and cd layouts, and has been along for every step of the way so far. Drew is a rock solid bassist.

"Steve is a great friend and supporter of the band, and has been a regular at our local shows; in fact he replaced me as the Colossus guitarist and played with Jay Pekala prior to his first Sleepy Hollow tenure. We would always jokingly added Steve as our top candidate when we discussed it, but knew he was very busy with Sleepy Hollow and there was no chance, so we moved on to other names" added BB. "Steve informed us he had become available  in mid July and was interested in jamming to see if there was chemistry and it was evident from the first few minutes itwas a great fit for both Power Theory and Steve."
