A band that has enjoyed as much worldwide success and acclaim as EPICA should have every right to rest on their laurels and stick to the proverbial "winning formula". And yet, as their fans across the globe are well aware, EPICA has never been a band to play it safe, and they've never made the same album twice. EPICA has earned its reputation as one of the foremost symphonic metal bands by repeatedly shattering expectations and pushing the very limits in the genre.

What you cannot say is that in its existence Winger has been a prolific band. Between 1988 and now they’ve released only six studio albums. Nevertheless they had their fair share of fans, which might not sound as a wonder, since musically these guys have always stood their ground. OK, not all albums were that good, but they do have a few memorable songs.

LOST SOCIETY, one of the most promising Finnish newcomers of our times, are back with a vengeance in 2014. Founded in early 2010 in Jyväskylä by Thrash/Speed Metal enthusiast Samy Elbanna, the frontman gathered an ensemble of passionate allies to establish a band that would soon be known as Scandinavia’s most energetic start-up export. Members are: Samy Elbanna (vocals, guitar), Arttu Lesonen (guitar), Mirko Lehtinen (bass) and Ossi Paananen (drums).
Edguy was born in the early nineties, and since have gone on to having sold more than two million discs. This now ‘Space Police’, is their tenth studio album. And once again this album will surely be a success. With the writing talents of Edguy’s leading man mister Tobia Sammett this is almost a must. Of course the crisp and clean production of Sascha Paeth is also always a good help in this.
Devil You Know is the intersection of three undeniable talents from the world of heavy music.
