EXILED HOPE – Unleashes “Forbidden Majesties” Video

Posted in Metal, metal music, Music, music news, news with tags , , , , , , on June 16, 2025 by Metal Odyssey

Critically acclaimed symphonic metal artist EXILED HOPE has unleashed a lyric video for her stunning track “Forbidden Majesties“. The song is taken from her album Apocrypha which released digitally on April 11th, 2025.

Sofia Frasz, the mastermind behind the project, commented, “I rerecorded the guitar parts for this song multiple times before I was finally happy with them. This was the first time I experimented with a more rhythmic playing style, and while it took some getting used to, it finally feels natural. β€œForbidden Majesties” is both atmospheric and intense, and briefly dips into a soft cinematic style reminiscent of β€œDeathslayer” during the bridge. It ties together all the different threads, from heavier styles to lighter styles, that I’ve woven throughout the album and feels like a natural conclusion, leaving the door open for further stylistic exploration.”

The track titled β€˜Beyond Horizons,’ which already celebrated its live premiere during the band’s most recent European tour, will be a part of their forthcoming record, and is their first sonic sign after regrouping themselves in late 2024, resulting in the addition of singer Gabriele Gozzi, guitarist Justus Sahlman and drummer Markus β€œMaks” Felber.

Also accompanied by a new music video, “Beyond Horizons” impressively shows the wide range of elements INDUCTION’s creative work is driven by: Forcing triplet drumming and riffing, backed by epically flourishing synths and choirs, build the ground of a track that is both profound and jubilant. Empowering melodies and rhythms make “Beyond Horizons” not only an anthem of the warm season and a perfect soundtrack to everyone’s next concert or festival trip. All aboard the INDUCTION train, metalheads, we’re just getting started!

Guitarist Tim Kanoa Hansen comments: β€œWith β€˜Beyond Horizons,’ we ring the bell for our long-awaited third album. And I believe it’s a mighty peek for what is to come: a story of love in twisted worlds and destiny. β€˜Beyond Horizons’ is the perfect kick-off to show you what we’ve been up to and what to expect. Dive in and enjoy: I’m sure this song will be stuck in your head for quite some time.”

POWERWOLF To Release Wildlive (Live At Olympiahalle) On March 6, 2026, via Napalm Records

Posted in Heavy Metal, Metal, metal bands, metal music, Music, music news, news with tags , , , , , , , , on June 9, 2025 by Metal Odyssey

From POWERWOLF Facebook:

β€œWe always knew that no words or short recap videos could truly capture what we experienced together during the “WolfsnΓ€chte 2024” tour. Every night was its own kind of magic – still, we wanted to find a way to hold on to those memories and share them in the most powerful way possible. That’s why we decided to record the full, massive, sold-out show at the Olympiahalle in Munich – to preserve just a piece of what we all felt on this tour.”

β€œWildlive (Live at Olympiahalle) will be released on March 6, 2026 on DVD/Blu-ray, in various beautiful audio formats and digitally. This is more than a live release. It’s a tribute and manifestation to the moments we created together.”

French Symphonic Metallers Fairyland Share New Single & Video β€œKarma”

Posted in Heavy Metal, Metal, metal bands, metal music, Music, music news, news with tags , , , , , , , , on May 12, 2025 by Metal Odyssey

FROM UPCOMING ALBUM
THE STORY REMAINS – OUT ON JUNE 13TH, 2025
VIA FRONTIERS MUSIC SRL

WATCH HERE

PRE-ORDER HERE

French symphonic power metal band Fairyland are pleased to share their new single and official video β€œKarma”, taken from their new studio album The Story Remains, scheduled for June 13th, 2025, via Frontiers Music Srl.

Bassist Willdric Lievin described the new single: β€œKarma is a song about the type of people who like using others. It’s a song about a selfish, egoistic, self-centered individual who only wants to please himself, without any consideration for other people. His hallmark: empty words, broken promises, words that are not followed by actions. He doesn’t know that by living like this, he hurts people around him. He doesn’t know that β€œwhat goes around comes around”. Musically it’s one of the most beautiful gems that Phil Giordana ever made. The majestic, epic, rich orchestrations make this song unique”.

Talking about the new record, Lievin stated: β€œAfter the passing of the Fairyland’s founder and mastermind Phil Giordana, we faced the challenge to finish the fifth album. Phil left plenty of material, but it required a lot of further work. It wasn’t easy but in the face of adversity we excelled and managed to complete the album. This, along with a new lineup, starts a new chapter in the history of Fairyland. It continues the symphonic, power metal quality that Fairyland is known for, but we decided to add some new elements to this musical landscape”.

β€œThe Story Remains is richer and more versatile than previous albums, and we are exploring new musical and lyrical territory for the band. We are happy and proud of this new album, and we hope that listening to it will give you a lot of delight. Welcome back to Fairyland”, he continued.

The Story Remains perfectly incarnates the band’s trademark sound, and songs like β€œA New Dawn” or β€œKarma” are a perfect example of the amazing album that will make every symphonic metal freak’s heart beat with excitement!

The Story Remains – Track-list:
1.    Downfall
2.    To Stars And Beyond
3.    Karma
4.    A New Dawn
5.    We Shall Hunt The Sun
6.    Hopeless Still
7.    Samsara
8.    Unity
9.    Council Of The Gods
10.    The Chosen Ones
11.    Unbreakable
12.    Postscript
13.    Suffering Ages (Feat. Elisa C. Martin)

Posted in Heavy Metal, Metal, metal bands, metal music, Music, music news, news with tags , , , , , , on May 5, 2025 by Metal Odyssey

Rockshots Records and Secret Rule are thrilled to announce the release of the band’s brand new single called “Just A Sacrifice” available on all digital platforms starting today, May 2nd, 2025, and accompanied by a music video. The track offers the first glimpse into the band’s highly anticipated tenth studio album, due for release later this year.

β€œJust A Sacrifice” is a powerful anthem about the cost of staying true to oneself in a world that demands conformity. Blending heavy guitars, intense vocals, and a bold, wide-open chorus, the song captures both the emotional toll and the inner strength that come with resisting societal pressure.

β€œThis song is about the price we pay for thinking freely, speaking our truth, and refusing to follow the crowd,” the band comments. β€œIt’s deeply personal but also a quiet political statement.”

Listen to the single (Spotify): https://lnk.to/H61jMl

Music Video: https://youtu.be/8yyd_1TLZAA

In recent weeks, Secret Rule completed an intense 15-date European tour alongside Temperance and Induction, showcasing their renewed energy and connection with audiences across the continent. The band is now preparing to take part in prestigious summer festivals including Masters of Rock (Czech Republic), Rock Imperium Festival (Spain), and Laurus Nobilis (Portugal).

Entering 2025 with a refreshed lineup and a renewed artistic vision, Secret Rule is ready to push their sound even further. The upcoming album promises a dynamic and immersive experience fusing the cinematic edge of Within Temptation’s recent work with the raw energy of Falling In Reverse.

β€œJust A Sacrifice” marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for Secret Rule, one built on resilience, individuality and a sound more powerful than ever.

ANGELA DI VINCENZO: Vocals

LEAVES’ EYES Signs To RPM & Embarks On β€œMyths Of Fate” European Tour | New EP To Be Released In 2025

Posted in Heavy Metal, Metal, metal bands, metal music, Music, music news, news with tags , , , , , on March 9, 2025 by Metal Odyssey

Coinciding with their ongoing β€œMyths Of Fate” European tour, symphonic Viking horde LEAVES’ EYES are pleased to announce that their ship has landed at the shores of Reigning Phoenix Music. Making a pact with the subversive metal label, the leading German metallers have found a welcoming new home for their future musical endeavours.

LEAVES’ EYES founder/vocalist Alex Krull states: β€œWe’re really happy to share such fantastic news: LEAVES’ EYES have signed a long-term record deal with Reigning Phoenix Music! Being united with many companions and friends makes working with RPM very special to me! We’re looking forward to entering the next level with Sven, Jochen, Gerardo and the whole RPM family, we couldn’t be more excited! The Southern German metal empire strikes back!”

β€œI’m enormously pleased to welcome Viking metal pioneers LEAVES’ EYES at RPM. The musical roots of Alex and me go back to Ludwigsburg’s Rockfabrik, a place where many bands and rock/metal projects kick-started their careers. Collaborating with friends is always special, and that’s definitely the case here,” comments label owner Sven Bogner.

RPM managing director Jochen Richert adds: β€œI’ve known Alex for almost 40 years since we’ve already been meeting regularly at local youth centres back in the day. Our work relationship also lasts for about 35 years now. That’s why I’m very happy that LEAVES’ EYES and Reigning Phoenix Music are walking a common path now. It’s a classic example of β€˜What belongs together, comes together’!”

L-R:
Alexander Krull (LEAVES’ EYES; vocals), Jochen Richert (RPM; managing director)

After their foundation in 2003, LEAVES’ EYES took the scene by storm: the group undeniably hit a nerve of the metal world with their refreshing mixture of symphonic metal and historic Norse elements. Over the course of nine studio albums, the band extended their ever-growing fan base, performed on five continents, played many own headline tours and entered the stages of some of the most prestigious metal festivals around the globe.

But there’s more: To bridge the gaps between their studio albums, LEAVES’ EYES mostly continue writing material and thereby released multiple EP’s with some of them showing rare musical sides, for example acoustic recordings, of the sextet. And the current time is now exception: following their current success album Myths Of Fate, which hit no. 17 of the official German well as no. 66 of the official Swiss album chart among others, they’re preparing a brand new EP, which is set for release later this year via Reigning Phoenix Music. What it contains shall remain a secret for now, but you can be sure that LEAVES’ EYES next output will be nothing but another exciting addition to their musical journey through the Nordic saga world. Pre-save it here: https://leaveseyes.rpm.link/ep2025PR

LEAVES’ EYES are:
Elina Siirala | vocals
Alexander Krull | vocals
Florian Ewert | guitars
Luc Gebhardt | guitars
Dominik Prykiel | bass
Nils Kreul | drums

As mentioned, the group have kicked off their 2025 European tour in Aalborg, Denmark, to gather symphonic and Viking fanatics once again. Also performing under the β€œMyths Of Fate” banner are promising support acts: NYTT LAND (Mar 6-21), ATER (Mar 6-21), PROJECT RENEGADE (Mar 6-13), VERDERBNIS (Mar 6-13) and HALLS OF OBLIVION (Mar 14-21).

This song encapsulates the cinematic intensity of Serpentyne’s evolved sound, pulling listeners into a desperate chase for survival.

CARMERIA – Release New Video For “A Thousand Winter Rains”, New Album Out Now

Posted in Heavy Metal, Metal, metal bands, metal music, Music, music news with tags , , , , on August 23, 2024 by Metal Odyssey

From the eerie mists of the Blue Mountains, Australia, CARMERIA combine the haunting sounds of dark symphonic metal with the lovelorn energy of gothic rock. Today marks the release of their highly anticipated sophomore LP, TragΓ©die D’amour, and to celebrate, CARMERIA unveil the stunning new video for their latest single, “A Thousand Winter Rains”.

This atmospheric and intense track delves into themes of longing and sorrow, perfectly complemented by the evocative visuals in the video, showcasing the band’s dedication to exploring the more melancholic aspects of the human experience. Watch the video HERE. 

Singer/songwriter Jordan von Grae shares: “The past 3 years have been a monumental journey through the peaks of love, and the valleys of loss, and reflecting on these experiences in the writing and production process for this album was both haunting and beautiful. As a writer, TragΓ©die D’amour took me out of my comfort zone, and the result was a series of wonderful lessons in songcrafting and production, and a newfound appreciation for the vast range of emotions and experiences held in the dichotomy of love and grief. It is my hope that those who listen to our record find solace in the fact that they are not alone in their experiences – the good, and the bad.” 

Members:
Jordan von Grae – Vocals | Principal Lyricist & Songwriter | Producer
Jerry Zahija – Guitars
Mishka Bobrov – Keys | Additional Backing Vocals
Emma Louise Nagy – Bass | Secondary Vocals | Acoustic Guitars
Lachlan Blackwood – Drums | Producer

Track Listing:

  1. Call Forth My Sorrow
  2. A Thousand Winter Rains
  3. Thorns

Since reforming with a new line-up in 2018, the band has been on a momentous warpath through the Australian music scene. CARMERIA’s debut album Advenae (2021) saw the 5-piece garner international acclaim. In the summer of 2021/2022, the group embarked on their first nation-wide tour, culminating in a sold out show in their hometown capital, Sydney.

The following years saw the ensemble write and record music for their 2nd opus, titled TragΓ©die D’amour, which consists of 10 new songs and sees the band’s sound taking on a more energetic gothic rock approach than its predecessor.

RHAPSODY OF FIRE Unleashes Colossal, New Video Single “Diamond Claws” – From Forthcoming Album Challenge The Wind

Posted in Heavy Metal, Metal, metal bands, metal music, Music, music news, music videos with tags , , , , , on May 3, 2024 by Metal Odyssey

Challenge The Wind Due Out This May On AFM Records!

May 31, 2024 will see symphonic melodic metal overlords Rhapsody Of Fire release their hotly-anticipated, new studio epos β€˜Challenge The Wind’ via AFM Records. A new music video for their latest colossal single, “Diamond Claws” (now available on https://rhapsodyoffire.bfan.link/diamond-claws), is premiering today! Watch the band’s new clip below, and pre-order your album copy now at https://rhapsodyoffire.bfan.link/challenge-the-wind

Watch HERE

For more than thirty years, Rhapsody Of Fire have been able to rely on one thing: there’s nothing half-hearted about this band. The Italian masters of their craft can look back at an impressive catalogue of 14 studio albums, three EPs and two live recordings to date, all marked by lots of heart and soul, passion and a virtually inexhaustible wealth of ideas. Since 1993, mastermind and founder Alex Staropoli has been hailed as the creator of the film score metal genre and his band as one of the most charismatic acts worldwide.

In addition, Staropoli has enlisted a highly creative first-rate guitarist in Roby De Micheli, who joined the fold in 2011, contributing lots of gritty metal riffs and virtuoso solos to contrast the band’s symphonic orchestral style. 

Challenge The Wind will mark Rhapsody Of Fire‘s most fast-paced rager to date, as the composer and keybordist Staropoli recently revealed: β€œCompared to all previous Rhapsody Of Fire releases, the current album consists exclusively of up-tempo numbers, not a single ballad in sight. None of our other records have featured as much pure, unadulterated metal as β€˜Challenge The Wind’!” 

In support of their forthcoming album, the band is gearing up for a busy touring schedule in 2024, with many more shows to follow soon. Find all upcoming Rhapsody Of Fire dates listed below!

Challenge The Wind was produced by Alex Staropoli and mixed by Seeb Levermann (Orden Ogan), who is responsible for the homogeneous sound of the ten songs’ elaborate arrangements. As all of the band’s first single releases prove, one can be sure: Rhapsody Of Fire’s fast-paced adventure is set to continue with undiminished intensity! Pre-order Challenge The Wind HERE!

  1. Challenge the Wind
  2. Whispers of Doom
  3. The Bloody Pariah

Helsinki-Based Melodic Metal Band AVERLANCHE’s New Album Is Now Released

Posted in Heavy Metal, melodic metal, Metal, metal bands, metal music, Music, music news, news with tags , , , , , , , , , , , on May 12, 2023 by Metal Odyssey

Photo: Vin Valentino / Framenoir

releases their long-awaited second album ”Arctic Atlas” today 12th of May.

After a few years of composing and producing, β€œArctic Atlas” is finally available as a physical album or digital version. Averlanche is more than ready to introduce themselves as a newborn Symphonic Metal band from Finland with modern sounds and a completely new style.

The album will be released through JVR MUSIC GROUP record label. INVERSE RECORDS handles the digital promotion worldwide.

Arctic Atlas is an interesting album full of surprises. It starts in the freezing cold and then jumps straight into a burning theater. It is something you never expected from Averlanche.

Averlanche’s debut album β€œLife’s Phenomonen” was produced, recorded & mixed by the famous Finnish producer Hiili Hiilesmaa, best known for collaborating with bands like HIM, Sentenced, Apocalyptica and others. After a long collaboration, this time the band’s manager Joonas Rinne was chosen to be the producer. The album was recorded in different sessions during 2022-2023.

β€œWorking with Averlanche has been an interesting journey through time. The album was being prepared for about a year, from the demo sessions to arrangement and production. The album was fun to mix and the collaboration with the band went well. Mika Jussila took care of the mastering process and a few days ago we received the finished product from Finnvox. The entire production team and the band are very satisfied with the results. I hope the listeners will take the album as their own from the first time listening.” – Joonas Rinne, producer

Tracklist:

  1. -273.16 Β°C
  2. In The Theater Of Fire
  3. Killing Floor
  4. Heartache Parade
  5. Island Across
  6. Polaris
  7. She & The Dark Winter
  8. Little Lotus
  9. Black ButterfliesΒ΄ Night
  10. Arctica
  11. Atlas Of Hearts

The recording process of ”Arctic Atlas” was a very different experience from recording the debut album. This album was recorded in different sessions and every session had its unique style.

β€œI enjoyed the recording process and I think we have all grown a lot during this past year. My favorite song on the album has been changing a lot. It really depends on my mood. At the moment I would say ”Island Across”! I love the atmosphere it creates. I would like to thank you so much for your patience and your support. Soon it will be rewarded. We hope to see you at the upcoming shows!” – Rebecca SpΓΆrl, vocals

Most of the songs on the album had already been composed before the release of debut album β€œLife’s Phenomenon”.

β€œThe oldest songs of the album, ”In The Theater of Fire” and ”She & the Dark Winter”, we have already been playing live for a while. I’m We put a lot of time and effort into the production phase of our songs and tested and discussed many different possible arrangements to find the best versions. This time we did the recordings in multiple sessions in Oulu, instead of all at once like last time. This way we had more time to work on the details.” – Antti Kopra, keyboards

Vocals: Rebecca SpΓΆrl
Keyboards: Antti Kopra
Guitars: Otto Haalahti
Drums: Henri Tenhunen

BLOOD OF INDIGO – “Dawn Of The Shaded World” Releases On August 26th

Posted in Heavy Metal, Metal, metal bands, metal music, Music, music news, music videos, news with tags , , , , , , , , on July 19, 2022 by Metal Odyssey

On August 26th, 2022 symphonic gothic metal band BLOOD OF INDIGO will unleash their debut album Dawn of the Shaded World.

The band comments:

“We poured every ounce of love and passion into this album. Each song is like a carefully crafted dish from a Dark Fantasy Metal buffet. Every song tells its own story and was inspired by our favourite video games. We gave our devoted attention to every little detail and we hope this album will inspire someone to create. Dawn of The Shaded World is everything we’ve dreamed of and more.”

Become immersed in the dark, fantastical world that surrounds BLOOD OF INDIGO. Legend has it that the dark, majestic project hail from Toronto, Canada, and seek to indulge in their passion for storytelling through epic music.

The dynamic trio’s creative influences spawn from metal bands including DIMMU BORGIR, NIGHTWISH and DREAM THEATER, along video games such as Dark Souls, Hollow Knight and Bloodborne. The origins of this mystic ensemble are all but lost, scrolls from the distant era of 2017 reveal that following advice from Lindsay Schoolcraft to pursue his dream of being a metal vocalist, Alex Centorame formed the band in that year with Mariusz Syposz. The third companion Nathan Gross joined forces with the line-up shortly after. Thriving in the realms of horror and fantasy, they sought a title that would live up to the bravery, majesty and wonder – and BLOOD OF INDIGO was born.

Watch the video for “Angelus The ‘Faceless’ Vampire: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZpVZ3vyBAU

BLOOD OF INDIGO is currently preparing to unveil lyric videos for β€œAngelus, the β€˜Faceless’ Vampire” and β€œSphynx, Collector of Eyes”, before unleashing their eagerly awaited debut album Dawn of The Shaded World. The album also features a guest appearance from Juno nominated singer/songwriter Lindsay Schoolcraft.

Band Members:
Alex Centorame (Sen-Tor-Ah- Mee) – Vocals/Lyrics
Nathan Gross (Grr-Oh-Ss) – Keyboards/Orchestrations
Mariusz Syposz (Suh-Pose) – Guitars/Drum Programming
