Persuaders’ fourth album is coming out in January 2014 and it’s a great new year’s present for the Powermetal fans.
Edward Box is a UK guitarist, whom you probably know from his work with Vendetta, who have so far released 3 albums on Lion Music. It’s clear that he’s a prolific guitar player, because you get to hear some parts which could as well have been played by Joe Satriani, whilst other parts remind you of George Lynch but the list goes on.
Psych 44 is a stoner/garage rock band with electronic influences from Antwerp, Belgium. After reaching the finals of HUMO’s Rock Rally in 2010, they released their first EP “Demon” in 2011.
Kayser funded in 2004 when Spice (ex-Spiritual Beggars), Mattias Svensson (also The Defaced), Bob Ruben (ex The Mushroom River Band) and Fredrik Finnander decided to join forces to create a pure metal band. The 100% Swedish pure metal band returned after their last album “Frame The World…Hang It On The Wall” (2006).
Mystic Prophecy is a power metal band that comes from Germany. The band was formed R.D. Liapakis and Martin Albrecht. Gus G. was also part of this outfit, he played all guitars on their three first albums, but left in 2005 to spend more time in his other band Firewind. But do to other line up changes, the band almost gave up. Luckily for the fans, they kept going and just got stronger and stronger.
Ektomorf Was founded in 1993 in Hungary. Line up Zoltan Farkas (vocals, guitar), Zsabolcs Murvai (bass), Tomi Schrottner (guitar) and Robert Jaska (drums) playing some groove metal – Neo – Trash metal. The Danish producer Tue Madsen (Antfarm Studio) produced their albums sinds 2003. Madsen helped the band to find their very own, super fat, modern and powerful sound that EKTOMORF evolved since “Destroy” (2004) steadily.
As many of you will know by now, Iron Mask is the more popular side-project of Belgian Neo-Classical Power Metal guitarist Dushan Petrossi (of Magic Kingdom), formed in 2002 (with MK bassist Vassili Moltchanov also joining in the band, Youri De Groote behind the keyboards, and Phil Letaw as lead singer) and for which Petrossi signed to Finnish label Lion Music.
Unbelievable...the event which millions of Die Krupps fans had been anticipating for a decade and a half has finally happened : their favourite band finally made a follow-up full-length for their great 1997 studio album Paradise Now!
My introduction to this German US Power Metal-styled act came through the release (and subsequent review) of their 2009 album Fire Angel (review posted may 24 of same year). The “Archive” section of our website (where you would normally be able to find said review for your fact-finding needs) not currently being available, I have no idea whom of my colleagues “did” the band's previous album, 2011's Ravenslord or, if indeed we gt to do that album at all.
Very little info to be found on this Columbo (Ohio) based Hardcore act, who come along with their debut album here...so I guess I'll start off this review by giving you already the info (adapted to ConcreteWeb standards) related to us with the download promo copy of the album...
