We are extremely happy and proud to announce that our new studio album will be titled “SHADOWPLAY” and is set for a worldwide release in September 2015 via our label Limb Music!

We have been working very hard on this new album for the better part of one year in the studio now to deliver great new Symphonic Power Metal anthems, and we feel that all the hard work has finally paid off – we love the new material, and we are very much looking forward to sharing more details like collaborations, guest performances, and of course also the first audio snippets with you in the weeks to come!

For now, we are thrilled to present the artwork for “Shadowplay”, designed by the talented Péter Sallai from Hungary, who has already provided amazing artworks for fantastic bands such as SABATON, CREMATORY and SATYRICON.

WIZARD – Remastered Reissues

The opinion of the international press that Wizard is Germany’s answer to Manowar is not entirely incorrect. The band with singer Sven D’Anna take their fast, furious true metal sound from similar sources as Joey DeMaio’s American band. Despite that, Wizard’s songs are not lacking in individuality.

 
„Nobody told us that Metal was dead – believe me“, Snoppi says with a deadpan face, „we didn’t notice that in the rehearsal room…“. This totally naive and very honest statement, taken from an early interview, is WIZARD in a nutshell. WIZARD have remained true to themselves – and they are the only real choice for anyone searching for the true Metal spirit.

MASTERS OF DISGUISE – The Savage And The Grace

With their 2013 debut „Back With A Vengeance“, MASTERS OF DISGUISE filled the musical gap left behind by the demise of Savage Grace almost 30 years previously. Two years later the successor CD „The Savage And The Grace“ was ready, building on its predecessor in classical style and which again is sure to set the pulses of speed freaks racing. The album again honours the true Speed Metal spirit of the Eighties without sounding antiquated or dusty. Classic US Speed Metal, taken another step upwards by several typical, fast Euro-Metal characteristics make the eleven tracks a real ride through speed hell.

•  01. Judgement Day / 2:13
•  02. The Enforcer / 3:39
•  03. Conquering The World / 6:26
