Stygia is a world class progressive power metal project/band led by guitarist Todd Seitz. The project will capture the epic brutality of several dark fantasy themes. By utilizing a line up of world class musicians, Stygia offers an over the top musical experience. The band's initial demo was released in November of 2007. At the moment, Stygia is recording a full length album containing nine brand new tracks. Musicians for the project were carefully selected for the recording of its newest venture. Stygia's debut album 'Divine Allegiance' will feature Vocalist Michael Vescera (OBSESSION, Ex. YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, LOUDNESS), Bassist Michael LePond (SYMPHONY X), Guitarist Todd Seitz (STYGIA), Keyboardist Kevin Codfert (ADAGIO) and Drummer John Macaluso (Ex. YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, ARK, TNT). A guest solo will also be contributed by Hank Shermann (MERCYFUL FATE & DEMONICA) and Jens Johansson (STRATOVARIUS).
Stygia's 2007 demo features Drummer Mike Mangini (STEVE VAI, EXTREME, ANNIHILATOR, JAMES LABRIE), Vocalist Michael Vescera, Bassist Chris McCarvill (OBSESSION, HOUSE OF LORDS, DOKKEN) and Keyboardist Vitalij Kuprij (ARTENSION, Ex.

I’ve been a music journalist for more than 10 years. Over the years, many artists and managers have asked me what the best way to break into the European music market is.
Here are some things you can do:
Publish artist press releases, news, and tour dates to the CountryHome Forum on MySpace, http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazine , CountryHome Forum is part of CountryHome, http://www.CountryHome.de , Germany's Premier Country Music Online Magazine. Everything you publish to the CountryHome Forum will be published in my weekly Newsletter which has over 80,000 readers.
Send me CDs and DVDs for review and set up an artist interview with me. All reviews and interviews will be submitted to the magazines I'm writing for. More information for which magazines I'm writing can be found at http://www.MySpace.com/ChristianLamitschka
Upload artist videos to http://www.MyVideo.de and http://www.ClipFish.de . Both websites are like http://www.YouTube.com and uploading videos is free. The websites are completely in German. If you don’t speak German and need assistance, I will help you open an account and upload a video for 25 Euro. Each additional video upload for the same artist name and at the same video website is 10 Euro.
If you have more questions about the European music market or about any of the information I send to you today, please contact me at Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de too.
