ROXXCALIBUR – Gems Of The NWOBHM

The „gold diggers“ are back. Their third album, „Gems Of The NWOBHM“ is definitely no obscurity for people in the know. Even though the majority of worldwide metal fans may not be familiar with all of the selected songs in their original form, it remains an incredibly good metal CD, which, although it has the spirit of the early Eighties within it, is still made for the here and now. Liner notes by author and NWOBHM expert John Tucker („Neat & Tidy – The Story of Neat Records“, „Suzie Smiled“ etc.). Cover artwork by Rodney Matthews (Diamond Head, Praying Mantis, Tygers Of Pan Tang, Bitches Sin, Magnum, Nazareth etc.). Mastered by Eroc, known not only for his role as drummer of the Krautrock legends Grobschnitt but also as studio man for his remastering of classics of the Sixties and Seventies.

The album includes the CD only track „Rip Off“ and comes in a slipcase including a sticker and a poster.

DRAGONY – Shadowplay

„Shadowplay“ shows a band that refuses to bow down to any kind of conventions, that has its musical goals firmly in focus, and that impresses the listener through their imaginative and technically pure work. They are versatile in playing with the popular clichees of the genre and still come across innovative. Overall „Shadowplay“ sounds homogeneous and refreshingly heavy – so there is plenty of reason to promote this album on tour. Therefore, the band will be on the billing of Gamma Ray’s Anniversary Tour! Feat. Zak Stevens (Savatage, Trans Siberian Orchestra, Circle II Circle) on guestvocals.

 

Tracklisting:
  •  01. Wolves Of The North / 6:22
  •  02. Shadowrunners / 4:18
  •  03. Kiln Of The First Flame / 5:32
  •  04. The Maiden’s Cliff / 2:54
  •  05. Warlock / 5:12
  •  06. Babylon / 5:26
  •  07. Dr. Agony / 4:29
  •  08. At Daggers Drawn / 3:52
  •  09. Unicorn Union / 4:10
  •  10. The Silent Sun (feat. Zak Stevens) / 10:05
  •  11. True Survivor (Bonus Track) / 3:47

Total playing time 56:21

DRAGONY announce “Shadowplay” guest appearance by Zak Stevens!

Quote: „As on our first album, we are once again thrilled to welcome a very special guest on our upcoming record, and this time it is none other than former SAVATAGE and TRANS SIBERIAN ORCHESTRA vocalist and current singer for CIRCLE II CIRCLE, Zak Stevens!
One of the most prolific and charismatic singers in the history of Metal, he has lent his voice to immortal classics such as “Edge Of Thorns”, “Handful Of Rain” and “Dead Winter Dead”, has just rocked the WACKEN OPEN AIR as part of a historical two stage performance with SAVATAGE and the TSO, and we are very honored to have Zak on board for our upcoming album “Shadowplay” (out in fall 2015), where he will contribute guest vocals to the song “The Silent Sun”.“
Here is a little teaser from the upcoming album:
