Watch the lyric video for the second single ‘D.N.A. (Demon And Angel)’, which features guest vocals by AMARANTHE vocalist Elize Ryd, over on YouTube here. Purchase the song now.
Singer Fabio Lione says, “While our first single ‘Phoenix Rising’ mainly represented a bridge connecting our artistic past and future, with ‘D.N.A. (Demon And Angel)’ we intend to show the modern side of our new band, presenting a song based on heavy guitars, electronic synths and featuring as special guest Elize Ryd of AMARANTHE. We all love Elize’s wonderful voice and we immediately thought of her for the duet of this song!”
Guitarist/keyboardist/pianist Luca Turilli adds, “Lyrically, ‘D.N.A. (Demon And Angel)’ investigates the deepest inner nature of the human being in accordance with some of the most revolutionary studies related with psychoanalysis, focusing on the ‘shadow archetype’ and its relation with the ‘psychological projection’ based on which we tend to see in the other people that dark side we are not able to accept as being part of ourselves. The ‘mirror’ of Carl Gustav Jung doesn’t reflect any illusion and it simply reveals the only way for someone to evolve is based on the fundamental acceptance of his dark side, first step to become conscious of the own shadow, being able to control it and finally transform it into a sparkle of light.”
Swedish symphonic power metallers MAJESTICA, formerly known as REINXEED, are releasing their debut album »Above The Sky«, via Nuclear Blast today. To celebrate, the trio fronted by SABATON guitarist Tommy Johansson has unveiled a brand new music video for the album’s title track.
Watch and listen to the fast-paced anthem here.
Tommy states, “After working for almost 5 years on this album, we’re so happy to announce that it’s finally released now on Friday, the 7th of June. We have been waiting a long time to show this album to you all! The music video for ‘Above The Sky’ was filmed, directed and edited by Ronny Hemlin. We’ve been working with him on previous REINXEED videos so it felt like the right choice to contact him again. The video takes place on an airport in Southern Sweden, where no green screen was needed to create such cool video.”
Last week, Swedish-American power metal supergroup NORTHTALE announced the release of their debut album titled »Welcome To Paradise«, for August 2, 2019 through Nuclear Blast. Today, their loyal and consistently growing fanbase’s patience pays off as the band unveil the first single, ‘Higher’.
The supporting lyric video can be viewed here.
Founding members Bill Hudson (guitars) & Christian Eriksson (vocals) state, “This is a special song for all of us. It was the first time we collaborated as writers. Lyrically it’s about reflecting on daily life and how we should together work for a better tomorrow. It’s a very good combination of everything we want to do: catchy melodies, ripping solo, keyboard/guitar duels and the uplifting lyrics.”
The new opus of Swedish adventure metallers TWILIGHT FORCE, »Dawn Of The Dragonstar«, will see the light of day on August 16, 2019 through Nuclear Blast. After solving the mystical riddle leading us to its release date, a few days ago, the group has now unveiled the first musical glimpse of their third creation, ‘Night Of Winterlight’.
The glorious lyrical portrayal for the song can be witnessed here.
Keyboard summoner Blackwald states, “Mighty wizards and warriors of the human realms! We proudly present to you the first song from our third creation: ‘Night Of Winterlight’. This is an ancient tale of a primordial and endlessly mighty mage with the power to control life and light itself. The unmaker of darkness and the healer of stars. He returns on the Night of Winterlight to bring order and a new dawn to the world of the living. The third album »Dawn Of The Dragonstar«, consists of 10 musical journeys throughout the Twilight Kingdoms, traversing both time and space, bringing you all closer to the stories, legends, and prophecies permeating the mythical world of the TWILIGHT FORCE. We tell tales of heroes, queens and kings, magical artifacts, legendary places, and ancient beasts; all engulfed by a fast paced and sparkling soundscape teeming with vivid content for the keen eared adventurer. So join us, partake in the adventure once again, and may the Power of the Dragon guide you!”
