METALITALIA Festival 2019 first bands announcement

The Metalitalia.com Festival team – Metalitalia.com, Vertigo and Eagle Booking Live Promotion – is very proud to reveal the dates and the first confirmed acts of the 2019 edition of the festival, which will take place once again at the Live Music Club in Trezzo sull’Adda (Milan), Italy.

This time the event will take place over two days in spring: on Saturday 1st June and Sunday 2nd June.

We're still working on various other things behind the scenes which we'll bring to you in due course, including the side programme and of course the full line-up and day schedules. In the meantime, we're extremely happy to be adding some cool bands to the festival with this announcement.

DAY 1 – Saturday, 1st June

The headlining act of the first day of the festival will be Sweden's ARCH ENEMY! The Michael Amott led band, recently brought to the apex of his success by the charismatic singer Alissa White-Gluz is without a doubt one of the leaders of the modern thrash-death metal scene. ARCH ENEMY will be joined by Italian symohonic death metal masters FLESHGOD APOCALYPSE, who are about to release a new and highly anticipated album. The band will perform with an impressive production in an exclusive show on Italian soil.
Never the most prolific of bands, nor the most well-known, nevertheless DARKANE have offered some of the most intelligent thrash-death metal throughout the years. For the occasion, the Swedish band will play their masterpiece "Rusted Angel" in its entirety!

DAY 2 – Sunday, 2nd June

The second day of the event will be fully dedicated to hard rock and classic metal. The bill will be topped by Swiss hard rockers GOTTHARD: the band boasts a big following in Italy and they will come down to Milan for a very special show. Co-headliners of this second day will be Sweden's HARDCORE SUPERSTAR, who are absolute masters at mixing sleaze, glam, metal and catchy choruses.
Finally, we are pround to announce another piece of metal and rock history: Phil Campbell, the legendary guitarist of MOTÖRHEAD, who shared the stage with Lemmy for 32 years, will join us for an an explosive show based on recent cuts from his new album under the PHIL CAMPBELL AND THE BASTARD SONS banner and many MOTÖRHEAD hits!

Once again, please stay tuned for more details and news!

Darkwater just released a brand new lyric video for their song A New Beginning

Darkwater revealed a new lyric video for the track "A New Beginning" which is a song from their new album "Human" soon to be released via Ulterium Records March 1st. Read more details below.

The promo states:
The Swedish melodic progressive metal band DARKWATER just released a lyric video for "A New Beginning", the second single from their new album "Human".

Link to the lyric video: This location

"Human" will be released on March 1st via Ulterium Records. The album will be available on CD, 2LP and digital.

Visit the band here

"Human" won't leave fans of melodic metal or progressive metal disappointed. The songs are heavier, more melodic and atmospheric than before and the band worked really hard on tweaking the ten songs and over 76 minutes of playing time into perfection. Jacob Hansen (Evergrey, Volbeat, Amaranthe) was chosen to mix and master the album and he did a fantastic job which resulted in the best sounding Darkwater album to date.

The lyrics of the album welcomes you into a world of you and me, how we affect the world around us and the struggles we deal with as humans.

Don't miss out on "Human", a perfect album for fans of melodic progressive metal and bands like Circus Maximus, Seventh Wonder and Evergrey!

A Novelist is streaming their upcoming release on Invisible Oranges

A Novelist is about to release their brand new album Folie on February 8th. The band is currently streaming the album in its entirety thru Invisible Oranges. It is a pleasure to listen to the vast amount of melodies and complex arrangements being expressed here. More details below.

The promo states:
Louisiana-based progressive death metal project A Novelist is finally on the cusp of releasing their sophomore full-length, Folie, this Friday, February 8th. The band once again enlisted the talents of renowned sound engineer Jamie King (Between The Buried And Me, Wretched, etc.) to ensure the best possible production for their new album.

 A Novelist is the creative partnership of drummer Alex Babineaux and vocalist, guitarist, and multi-instrumentalist Ben Nugent. Started in 2009 between friends in Lafayette, Louisiana, they began with the simple goal of writing and playing death metal. Over time their goals as a band grew larger, driven by a bold desire to expand the idea of what death metal can be through free and uncompromised expression. Listen now at this LOCATION

Ben Nugent - Vocals, Guitars, Bass, Keys, Effects (Nethermost Majesty)

Alex Babineaux - Drums (Nethermost Majesty)

Invisible Oranges comments on today's album stream of A Novelist - Folie
"Project co-conspirators Ben Nugent (vocals, guitars, bass, keyboards) and Alex Babineaux (drums) have matured significantly since A Novelist’s debut album Portraits: from its unbridled musicianship to its effortless synchrony, Folie feels emergent rather than constructed (more free-form dance than dress rehearsal). Across its 12 tracks, the album pirouettes from melodic bursts of speed and energy (further amplified by Nugent’s dazzling clean vocals) to moody, ambient moments of reflection — and even though transitions are aplenty and often abrupt, no musical idea feels underexplored or underutilized."

Flames At Sunrise premiere new video "Dolmen"

The band Flames At Sunrise just released their brand new video "Dolmen" which is part of their album "Born Of Embers" via Wormholedeath. View in full at the link below and read up on their latest news.

Watch it here

The promo states:

Spanish Modern Metal combo FLAMES AT SUNRISE are proud to present their brand new official VIDEO for "DOLMEN", track taken from the album "Born In Embers" out via Wormholedeath. 

"Her fate is in your hands." 

Two ends, one election. Fate is in your hands. Flames At Sunrise presents "Dolmen", the band's most ambitious audiovisual creation to date.

"Only we can decide to light the flame of hope or plunge into the loop of darkness.

This video clip builds a bridge between their two previous productions, "III Faces" and "Ark Flesh", connecting the stories and creating a new universe where music finds its reflection in the image, and where only we have the power to choose how we want it to end up. How does it work? It's simple: this video has two endings and we will be able to choose the option we want.
Shot by Jordi Flames, the band's guitarist, and starring the group's own members, with the collaboration of Aitor Torres, a former member, this video clip is presented as a starting point for a new world that will redefine the creative limits of Flames At Sunrise.

Black Therapy premiere new video "Dreaming"

Watch Black Therapy's brand new video "Dreaming" from their upcoming album Echos Of Dying Memories due out March 15th Black Lion Records.

After getting involved in a spree of live activities, the Rome based five-piece BLACK THERAPY have announced the release of their third album, Echoes of Dying Memories, slated for worldwide release on March 15th via Black Lion Records.

As the first taste of this album, the Italian melodic death metallers have offered a monumental video of the 04th number, Dreaming.

Informs the band: “We wanted the video for Dreaming to be very straight-forward and in-your-face and we think that Andrea from Dvision Zero really nailed it with his rapid editing. We already worked with him years ago and it felt pretty natural for us to ask him if he wanted to work on our new video clip. We hope everyone will enjoy the fast-pace of this video as much as we do!”
