a German/Greek
progressive
power metal band
We are Legend, a European formation with musicians from Germany and Greece, is dedicated to modern Prog Power Metal.
With their new album "Fallen Angel" they open the next chapter
in the band's history.
In 2010 former musicians from STORMWITCH, ABRAXAS and CORONATUS got together for some jam sessions and the idea of a new band was born.
All that was missing was an extraordinary voice,
which could quickly be found in Selin Schönbeck,
an outstanding talent with excellent musical flair.
WE ARE LEGEND was born!
The 4-track EP "We Are Legend" was released in January 2012
within a very short time.
In mid-2012 they won in four categories at the German Rock
and Pop Awards, making them the most successful metal band of the year.
Due to the great reactions to the demo,
they were able to get a record deal
and so the album "Rise Of The Legend" was released in 2013.
Despite good reviews, the band broke up in 2016.
Nevertheless, mastermind Dirk Baur and singer Selin
continued to work on new songs.
In 2021 the cooperation became more intense again
and so it was decided to record these songs
for another WE ARE LEGEND album.
The line-up was supplemented with musicians from Italy and Greece,
who give the sound an intense spice and depth
and their very own progressive power metal,
with powerful drums and driving guitars,
carried by sophisticated vocals and choirs
and the use of neoclassical piano lines matured.

BIWO
has released single/video
'Live Now'
BIWO a melodic melodic Heavy Metal band from Germany's Ruhr area has released their single/video 'Live Now'.
Mastermind Sven Biwo explains "Live Now":
"There are enough assholes in the world - people who want to pull you down. We invite you to forget all that shit for a moment. Live now - and do what you feel like doing! Because tomorrow might be too late. Don't waste your time with negative stuff - grab a beer, raise your fist and shout it out loud!"
BIWO stands for absolutely honest, infectiously catchy,
emphatically down-to-earth and classically timeless
MELODIC HEAVY METAL with a well-dosed shot of Teutonic bullishness.
It is clear to hear
that here is a musically thoroughly inspired genre fan ambitious
at the start, who makes his real music for just such real fans - uncomplicated Heavy Metal brotherhood is there so very heavy!
The enormously varied and sustainably catchy songs breathe the unique, unused 80s spirit with delicious fervor and in such depth
that you simply cannot escape the charm of BIWO
if you feel sincerely connected to the early Heavy Metal from that time.
the very special time when the blessed and equally obscure GAMA Records released unforgettable records by top artists like
Stormwitch, Veto and Tyran' Pace -
and the scene cult around it grows with every year.
Self-promoting and giga-virtuoso orgies of perfection
are therefore not at all what BIWO is about,
rather the eternally attractive underground is indulged in.
And although bandleader Sven sees himself more as a soloing mainman with guest musicians, the result sounds damn organic, homogeneous
and completely free of wear and tear.
...to continue, please go to the next side...

'Live Now'
All songs on "Life And Death" were composed and recorded
by Sven Biwo single-handedly.
The mix and mastering were also done
by master Biwo at Cubi Studios Bochum.
The pleasantly idiosyncratic artwork is deliberately not
an obligatory Photoshop bombardment -
it comes from the brushes of Gudrun Müller.
The idea for the band was born in January 2020
when Sven (guitar and vocals) and Justus (bass) met at a benefit concert.
With Hanno (drums), whom Justus knew from his school days,
a man for the kettles was then also found.
Shortly before the first rehearsal the pandemic came
and with it the break for the formation.
However, Sven took advantage of the creative break
and began to transform the ideas into songs
and to realize a finished album.
The final touches were put on "Life And Death" in the summer of 2022, when the first real rehearsals began
and the tracks were given a new shine in the rehearsal room.

MAGICAL HEART
released single
'My Own Way'
On October 7th, the new MAGICAL HEART album "Heartsonic"
will be released via Fastball Music.
The title song of the album was released on August 26th as a single
with a music video followed
by the new single "My Own Way" on September 16th.
The official video for this new single will be released on the same day
as the album hits the streets.
MAGICAL HEART play analogue-sounding, straightforward rock following their instincts, with much heart as well as a sense of melody and a good deal of fun while making music.
With Achim Köhler (PRIMAL FEAR, BRAINSTORM SINNER),
the band also hired the perfect man for mix and mastering,
who was able to perfectly and homogeneously round off the sound
of the individual songs across the album.
The band will finally be able to tour live again
for the album release in autumn.
In October, they are going to start with individual shows
and in December 2022, they will continue supporting
eight SERIOUS BLACK shows.

'Greedy Piggy'
Greedy Piggy is a delirious juggernaut, vividly portrayed.
It's as entertaining as you could possibly hope for.
And should be a sizeable hit.
This is a Stadium sing-a-long and live festival crowd-pleaser if ever.

Greedy Piggy is an empowering fantasy
that may be attractive toadolescents undergoing physical, mental
and circumstantial changes in their lives.
Or pathological.
Mostly the latter.
