Melodic Death Metal band from Viitasaari (Finland). On January 11th, 2013, Shadecrown released their first self-titled demo with 4 tracks. More later, they released their debut EP called "Chained" on November 8th, 2013.
VRADEMARGK es una banda de death metal, procedente de Terrassa, Barcelona (Spain).
Nuestra primera demo THE END OF THE BEGINNING editada en 2006, constaba de 8 temas que reflejaban el recorrido de la banda hasta el momento, un camino que empezó en 1999 bajo el nombre de Tsunami.
De toda esta trayectoria, ensayos, conciertos y desconciertos surge nuestro segundo trabajo editado: TRANSITION TO NOWHERE. La culminación de 3 años de composición (un proceso largo debido a algunos cambios en la formación) del cuál quedamos muy satisfechos. Se trata de un larga duración de 12 temas registrados en los AX Studios de Barcelona. En esta ocasión, no solamente la parte compositiva estuvo más trabajada, sino que el sonido también se cuidó al detalle.
Hemos compartido escenario con bandas de renombre internacional como Dark Tranquillity, Insomnium, Gorgoroth, Vader, Malevolent Creation, Prostitute Desfigurement, Gorod...así como con infinidad de buenas bandas de Catalunya y a nivel estatal.
Actualmente hemos editado nuestro tercer disco y que lleva por nombre "THE BLACK CHAMBER". Un nuevo trabajo compuesto de 9 temas más elaborados y con un sonido mejorado, plasmando la contundencia y composición que queríamos alcanzar.
Por nuestra parte, sobran las ganas de componer la música que nos mantiene vivos y poder llevarla a cualquier rincón del mundo para que la gente la pueda escuchar y disfrutar.
Hailing from Andorra, a small country located between France and Spain, Nami are the embodiment of the next great wave of European metal to emerge from the continent. Chances are, a lot of people couldn’t even tell you where Nami are from let alone what they sound like, an aspect that has only emboldened the raw beauty of what the band has created. Originally formed by Sergi Verdeguer (Drums) and Jonathan Lemos (Guitarist), the rest of the band’s lineup was quickly filled out by Roger Andreu (Vocals), Bernat Argemi (Guitars), and Ricard Tolosa (Bass), while Lemos being replaced by Filipe Baldaia (Guitars) shortly before production commenced on their debut album.
At the end of 2012, Nami focused on the writing of their second upcoming LP called “The Eternal Light of the Unconscious Mind” aiming to enter the studio at the end of April 2013. This time, Nami produced, recorded and edited most of the album. At the beginning of July 2013, Nami traveled again to Sweden to mix and master the new album with Jens Bogren due to his organic style of mixing.
Much like its predecessor, “The Eternal Light of the Unconscious Mind” revolves around a central theme however, this time the concept focusses on the advancement of dreams through our conscious and unconscious states. “With “Fragile Alignments” it is was really different”, explains vocalist Roger Andreu. “We wanted to become our own storytellers and each one of these songs is based on a dream that one of us had. We really wanted to open up to everyone about what we were thinking, our fears, our wishes, our regrets. We knew that the only way we could grow was to be more personal and I think we accomplished that with this record.”
In what concerns the new sound, Nami got much more convincing, powerful and fluid, experimenting new styles and acquiring more resources. A journey from the Post-Rock to the Extreme Progressive Metal, counting with collaborations from Loïc Rossetti (The Ocean), Carlos Lozano and Marc Martins (Persefone).
Little by little Nami is leaving their music and their track all over the world.
Aside from the band’s spiraling melodies and masterful riffs, Nami has only one request that requires fulfillment: Listen closely.

Dr.X is a band formed in early 2013 in Vilanova i la Geltrú (Barcelona). The band was originally formed by Alex, Guillem and Mayer, friends and bandmates since they were 15 years old.
From this point, they focused on developing ideas for compositions and started the search to find the ideal drummer and vocalist. After several auditions with different drummers, they discovered Victor during a concert of his band in a local bar, where they proposed an audition to him which pleasantly surprised the rest of the band, incorporating him into it.
As they continued to find a singer, they finished the composing the songs that would become their first EP and entered to record them in July 2013, even knowing how risky it was to do it without a vocalist. After the instrumental recording, they proposed to Alba, the singer of Guillem’s parallel band by then, to join the group and she gratefully accepted despite living considerably far away from the rest of the band.
When the band was fully formed, they locked in the rehearsal room (which was Alex’s basement) to have the vocal lines ready for the voice recording, which took place during the months of September and October.
Their first EP, Meet the Doctor, came to light on November 4, 2013 under the production of Robert Martínez (BDP, Symmawrath, Ktulu... Calima with a Grammy nomination in 2006) and with the collaboration of singer Elisa C. Martin (Dark Moor, Dreamaker, Hamka and Fairyland). The drum tracks were recorded at Sound of the Kings Studio (Barcelona) by José Luis Climent and Robert Martínez while the other instruments and vocals were mixed, engineered and mastered by Robert Martínez at Rub Productions.

En diciembre de 2009 nació una nueva forma de ver el rock y el metal en castellano. Se trata de Metalovisión, una televisión online que permite informar desde una perspectiva muy diferente a la actual.
Tras 6 años dando caña con noticias, entrevistas, conciertos y festivales a través nuestra web www.Akelarre-Rock.com, en febrero de este año el equipo Akelarre decidió hacer una pausa para ver las cosas con perspectiva y plantearse su continuidad. Al hacerlo, decidimos cambiar nuestra dirección, apostar por un cambio radical y enfocar nuestra manera de informar de una forma totalmente novedosa. Con este motivo, se decidió definitivamente clausurar la página Akelarre-Rock para dedicarnos desde ese momento con fuerza al nuevo proyecto: METALOVISIÓN.tv.
METALOVISIÓN surge en un momento en que la banda ancha ha propiciado que las tecnologías de la información dan cada vez más importancia a la imagen en movimiento, incluso en el contexto de internet. Es en ese momento en el que muchos son los medios que surgen en la web, incluso los tradicionales intentan no quedarse atrás con grandes portales llenos de vídeo. Pero la propuesta que hacemos desde METALOVISIÓN es un poco diferente. Nuestra web constará de un programa semanal con noticias de actualidad del mundo del rock y el metal. También se hablará de los conciertos y festivales pasados y futuros y se realizarán entrevistas a grupos, todo en un tono informal y ameno. La página contará además con un calendario totalmente actualizado de conciertos y con acceso a aquellos videos de Youtube que sean interesantes para todos los metalheads, y que se renovarán muy frecuentemente.
Y eso no es todo ya que Metalovisión es una página totalmente 2.0, así pues estará interconectada de forma casi automática con todas las grandes redes sociales del momento como Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, Tuenti, Youtube, Blip.Tv y Vimeo, permitiendo que desde todas ellas los visitantes hagan comentarios, sugerencias o nos envíen noticias. De esta forma es el propio publico el que creará algunos contenidos de los programas. Además no sólo podrán ver los programas a través de su ordenador, sino que lo podrán ver desde sus dispositivos móviles como móviles, iPods, Blackberrys, iPhone,... con un simple click.
Como parte del lanzamiento se realizarán ofertas especiales en la publicidad para todos aquellos interesados: grupos, productoras, tiendas, discográficas, … así como el diseño de banners para la web o mini anuncios que se incluirían en el programa semanal.
Paralelamente, como parte de nuestra financiación ofrecemos a todas las bandas que lo deseen la gestión de su merchandising: púas, camisetas, cartelería, pegatinas, chapas, flyers, lonetas y todo lo que se os pueda ocurrir a precios y tiempos muy asequibles.
For the contemporary and modern music enthusiasts, with distinguished taste for odd time rhythmic structures and multi-layered harmonic melodies. A progressive wave of “metal” that is technical, original, sophisticated, emotional and escapismic, in the same time very organic and groovy.
Il progetto Noiseful Silence prende vita nel 2006 a Firenze (IT). Il sound iniziale della band ha influenze metal di vario tipo ma prende ispirazione soprattutto dal Nu Metal. Durante i primi anni la band registra due EP autoprodotti: "The Rage Of Seven Souls" - 2007 - mai realmente uscito a causa dei molteplici cambiamenti di line up che avvennero poco dopo e "As I Created My Insanity" - 2009 - dove introducono per la prima volta campionamenti ed elettronica. Nel frattempo il songwriting è in continua evoluzione e viene influenzato da una serie di generi legati all'Hardcore. Con una formazione resa stabile nel 2010, la band realizza il suo primo video del nuovo brano "A Lie To Believe In" registrato all'Adrenaline Studio da Daniele Nelli (Tasters). Durante gli anni la band ha portato avanti un'intensa attività live che li ha visti calcare molteplici palchi italiani - riscuotendo un ottimo successo - ed aprire concerti ai più importanti gruppi della scena underground come Tasters, Helia, Dufresne, Incoming Cerebral Overdrive, Slowmotion Apocalypse e molti altri. Inoltre ha condiviso il palco con artisti internazionali del calibro di Mike Terrana, Kee Marcello (Europe) e Sonic Syndicate. Nel 2012 la band viene contattata da DysFunction Productions (Mnemic, Logan Mader, Tue Madsen, Dualized) con i quali decide di produrre il suo primo full lenght "Shades Of Red", masterizzato in seguito allo Spectre Studio di Seattle (WA-USA) da Troy Glessner (Underoath, August Burns Red, Norma Jean, Anberlin, Death Cab For Cutie) ed in uscita a giugno con To React Records.

Hidden is a Progressive Symphonic Metal band from Moscow, Russia. Five musicians try to reconsider a well established Symphonic Metal genre adding some elements of Progressive, Alternative and Gothic. Each Hidden song is a story with equal parts of powerful music and sensible lyrics. Hidden members step aside from traditional song structure and standard harmony. They are always open to new ideas and are not afraid of experimenting. The main style of Hidden's music is Dark Symphonic Metal with main clean female vocals and male growling/screaming. The lyrics are about different qualities of a man's character and things people often believe in.
Chronos Zero borns in 2011 as a solo project of Enrico Zavatta.
Beside the orginal idea we made our way during these few years and the resulting project is what we are today!
Everything starts with Enrico Zavatta and Federico Dapporto since forever and in the late 2012 with Davide Gennari we start to get into right feelings.
In 2012, on the way of recording the the prelude chapter album (A Prelude Into Emptiness, 2013) due a stylistic choice we decided that we needed an aggressive but still melodic oriented singer..and that he could perfectly suit the chemistry of the composition. The best choice been found: Gianbattista Jan Manenti (singer of Love.Might.Kill). ..and from then on we started this awesome cooperation. In 2013 then Giuseppe Rinaldi joined Chronos Zero as keyboardist.
