Majestica - Above The Sky

 

Swedish symphonic power metal band MAJESTICA recently signed a record deal with Nuclear Blast and will release their debut album »Above The Sky«, on June 7, 2019. Today the band has revealed the album’s tracklist as well as the cover artwork, which was crafted by SABATON guitarist Chris Rörland (FOLLOW THE CIPHER etc.). The album was recorded with guitarist Alex Oriz (Soundgarden Studio/Studio Oriz) and Ronny Milianowicz (Studio Seven), who also mixed the record and took care of the production alongside Tommy Johansson (guitars, vocals). Mastering duties were handled by Tony Lindgren (KATATONIA, ANGRA, ENSLAVED etc.) at Fascination Street Studios.

And as if that wasn’t enough, the group is also proud to present the first single from their new offering. Watch and listen to ‘Rising Tide’ over on YouTube.

The band comments, “‘Rising Tide’ is not only an epic power metal song in the vein of EDGUY, STRATOVARIUS and RUNNING WILD. It’s also very orchestral with a lot of Hans Zimmer influences. The lyrics are about some people hoping to find the fountain of youth, because they’re becoming old and wanna relive the good times of when they were younger. This song also represents the band as well as the direction and sound of the new record pretty well. Not only for the music but also that we show that we love doing what we do and can throw in some humour here and there.”

 

Of Virtue

WATCH THE LYRIC VIDEO FOR “NO CONTROL”

“’No Control’ was written from the perspective of someone who has never fit into any specific mold. Those nights we spend awake, wandering in our own thoughts considering what we can do to change the course of where we are headed and the realization that if we don’t do something, we are damned to repeat the same mistakes, staying in the same cycle of misery – only because we feel we have ‘No Control.’” – OF VIRTUE
