Swedish melodic metal act METALITE from Stockholm intend to transform their excellent performance at the Sweden Rock Festival this year into a 4-track live EP, available on AFM Records from October 28th.

Melodic heavy metal band REXORIA from Jönköping in Sweden, fronted by Frida Ohlin, have inked a deal with Black Lodge Records in Stockholm. A new, third album “Imperial Dawn” will be released in the beginning of 2023.

Italian record label Rockshots Records have added Italian/Malaysian power metal/symphonic metal band SILENT ANGEL to their roster. Debut album “Unyielding, Unrelenting” will be out in 2023.

Ex-Izegrim members Marloes Voskuil and Jeroen Wechgelaer are back with a new collaborative named HALIPHRON. The band is ready to conquer the world with their groundshaking bombastic metal.

Finnish/Greek gothic metal band SEDE VACANTE have signed a deal with Italian label Scarlet Records and plan to release their second album in October 2022.

BENEATH MY SIN’s Emma Elvaston and Clément Botz and EVEN FLOW’s Pietro Paolo Lunesu have merged into a new project called ATTRACTIVE CHAOS. A debut single and full-length album are already in the pipeline.

After an absence of 11 years, Lisa Johansson returns to the ranks of Swedish gothic doom metal band DRACONIAN. This also means the departure of Heike Langhans, who has served the band with her beautiful vocals for 10 years.

Italy is the land of symphonic metal bands, but it holds more than that. Melodic death metal band STEEL CAGE have joined the ranks with Sliptrick Records and will release their first album “Syndrome” on the new label later this year.

Austrian symphonic metal band EDENBRIDGE, with front woman Sabine Edelsbacher (since the formation in 1998), are ready for a new adventure with AFM Records. Their eleventh album “Shangri-La” can be expected in 2022.

Belgian symphonic metal band WORLDS BEYOND have joined the ranks of Necktwister for bookings. Hopefully, they can now tour to support their debut album “Symphony Of Dawn” and work on a sophomore full-length.
