BETOKEN "Venom empire"
-"Venom Empire" is the new and fourth album for these italian Power-metallers and it will feature 13 powerful tracks, influenced by the Classic US Power Metal and by bands like Queensryche (Operation Mindcrime/Empire – era) and Vicious Rumors with some harmonies and technical guitar-parts that might recall mighty Megadeth.
-All lead and backing vocals on the album have been recorded by Antonio Pecere (ex Sigma, Rapid Fire) and the album has been mixed and mastered by Giulio Capone (Bejelit).
-Another jewel of pure unadulterated Power Metal coming from Italy!
Heart Of Steel Records is very excited to announce the signing a two-albums deal with Arthur Falcone, acclaimed as “one of the BEST guitarists coming out of Italy” by Japanese, U.S. and German press.
His previous musical experiences feature Hard-Rock bands like HALLOWEEN, DEVILS CLAWS, FOXY LADY and LAROXX.
The new cooperation will bring the first fruits with the release of Falcone’s brand new studio-album called “The Genesis Of The Prophecy”.
The album has been recorded with Falcone’s own band STARGAZER and the helping hand of some special-guests like first class-singers Goran Edman (Yngwie Malmsteen, etc) and Titta Tani (DGM, Daemonia, etc), plus well-known musicians like Mystheria ..boards and Manuel Staropoli (Rhapsody of Fire) on flute.
“The Genesis Of The Prophecy” is a great Melodic Power/Neo-Classic Metal album, with a style that might be described as a mix among early Yngwie Malmsteen’s Rising Force, Symphony X and Stratovarius, and it will contain 11 songs (including 3 instrumentals).
As usual for all of our releases, the Cd will have a full-color 16 pages booklet.
Licenses in countries like Japan, USA and Far East are actually in negotiations.
An official release-date will be set up really soon.
Fans of Yngwie Malmsteen’s Rising Force, Symphony X and everybody into Neo-Classic Melodic Metal have every reason to raise their metal fists high into the air!!!
Heart Of Steel Records proudly announces the signing of Aussie rockers FALLEN SILVER for the release of their debut-album in late January/early February 2009.
The Sydney, Australia-natives five guys play Classic Hard-Rock full of kick-arse riffs, a fat rhythm section and some dirty still very melodic vocals, not too far from the “classics” Ac/Dc, Rose Tattoo and Black Crowes, with the energy of their country-mates Airbourne.
The result is 11 raw & loud Rock bluesy songs that make “Blood In Blue Eyes” one of the most exciting debut albums of these last months!
HEART OF STEEL RECORDS is very proud to announce the signing of NWOBHM legendary
band BURNER for the release on CD of their very first album in 28 years!!!
The group formed back in 1980 and they released up to now two 7” singles (“Savage Killer”/”Lay Down Your Arms”, and “Hammer Of The Gods”/”Time Is On My Side”/”Old Enough To Know Better”), that will be also included in our CD Version as bonus-tracks!
The album, called “Resurrection”, has been recorded between 2006 and 2008 and it contains songs written in a time-period spanning from 1984 to 2007, but sounding in a pure traditional ‘80s NWOBHM style (with a sound that might recall bands like BLITZKRIEG and DIAMOND HEAD).
The Cd will contain 15 songs (10 songs + the 5 bonus-tracks taken from the above-mentioned singles) for a total running-time of about 65 minutes, and will feature a full colour 16 pages booklet with pics, liner notes, all the lyrics and more.
Release-date : late January 2009.
-X-HERO .: Great evening spent with some friends in Erto (PN) during the UpErto Festival. Great music, good feeling...enjoy our Cosmo Saint!
-X-HERO .: "Dont stop the game"kick ass, Up to the italian rock!
