New album 'Live With The Shadow Orchestra' (CD/DVD) out April 21st through Frontiers. From One Desire: Hello to all our friends and fans around the world! We have a couple of critical matters that we want to get off our chest so this will be a little bit longer status to update to clear these matters: First the good news 2022 was filled with many happy things in all of our personal lives and we hope you had a good time too! One Desire has a Christmas & new years gift for you all in 2023. Something really really REALLY cool that we want tell you about. The Live Concept Movie that we mentioned about earlier will be aired TODAY by National TV YLE Areena in Finland from onwards. Now please bare with us and have a bit patience. We only have the airing rights for our home country so far. However this product will be officially released in March on all formats Blu-ray, CD, LP, DvD etc.. After it’s release in March it will also be aired on regular TV. There will be all kind of cool stuff on YouTube also. The movie is called One Desire Live With The Shadow Orchestra and it’s an extravaganza live concert show performed with all the extra bells and whistles together with a symphony orchestra. What makes this whole thing special is that it is rather like watching a movie than watching just a regular live show. We really took the long road with this production vise and we dug under every rock and put in every single euro we could find to turn this project into reality. There are so many people we need to thank but we can’t fit them all here, however they are all in the movie. Links are down below and there will be interviews etc links where you can find out more. Also we will post singles and previews that will become available for all you guys out there around the world as soon as this is possible after Christmas and new year. More on this the coming days, so happy new year 2023!!! We booked a European Tour that was suppose to happen in 2020 when we released the Midnight Empire album. What an accomplishment we felt, we were so damn proud of that album and it got totally amazing reviews globally. The album went high on all kind of charts around Europe etc. We literally went through blood, sweat and tears to give it the best we had at that point in our lives and career. We put everything we had in this record and needless to say we had high hopes and plans touring BIG TIME in as many countries as possible the 2 years to follow. As we all know it all went to hell due to covid and we suffered unbelievable loss of money, to a large extent because many things were already booked like tour busses etc many things were already paid for. All in all these fundings for these 2 years went down the drain as no one were able to take the risks anymore because we were financially crawling on our knees. And all this we went through two times not only one time! It really f..uck.ed us over. This is the exact same thing that happens to MANY other bands right now and has been happening the last 2 years. It is not because we are maximizing incomes etc other stuff people think is going on. No it is pure and simple being battered in the back of our heads financially. Short story long.. This is the truth at this moment in the life of a touring artist. We as a band are the last ones in the food chain and we can not affect nor predict the outcome of things that are not 100% in our control. Truth being that the reality is in fact the total opposite and there are agents, promoters, managers etc that are booking these tours. So now you have a little bit of a back story to all of this. The tours that was suppose to happen next spring with Brother Firetribe was booked over 2 years ago. It was officially postponed until 2023. It’s a tour that was locked to the prices that were relevant 2020. Tomorrow we have 2023 and the prices on gas for the tour bus is almost doubled, rents on venues, electricity went through the roof etc you know the whole drill. When you top this whole equation with normal people out there being too afraid to buy tickets on pre-sales before the actual concert date cause they’re afraid to loose their money.. Well there you have the final nail in the coffin. We are living through an incredible downward spiral for the whole live music scene at the moment and we can only hope and pray that the world will find a better direction soon before it does even more damage. We have full understanding that you are as sad as we are because you have bought tickets. You can however get refund from where you got the ticket. As a final word on this matter we want to add that touring is an insanely expensive hobby and unless you are super big as a band you don’t really make money touring to be completely honest. This is something we do from the pure love of playing live and meeting you who are our friends and fans and of course growing the band. We haven’t been touring properly for over 2+ years now except some concerts here and there. This is totally getting on our nerves and it is killing our motivation as we are a band that wants to perform and play LIVE for all you guys on stage traveling around the world to meet you play music. We hope for a better 2023 and to be honest it looks a little bit better. We can not promise too much as of now but there are already plans to come down to Europe in the fall of 2023. This time it will be a completely new tour and new terms. Meanwhile we are going to tour Finland in the spring. We will let you know about those dates. We are also looking in to doing something in Sweden. We have amazing festivals coming up next summer. In January we are playing a sold out show in Tampere together with the mighty Battle Beast. More will follow for sure as we have big plans for the future with the live show. We love you all and next year we are putting out some amazing new music from the studio that we think you will freak out from To our Finland fans (with Finland ip addresses) enjoy this concert movie! Everyone else out there this will be available for you too soon. Happy New Year Over and Out With Love From /Jimmy, Ossi, Andre & Jonas

'Seven Worlds' out March 17th through Frontiers. From Frontiers: Frontiers Music Srl is pleased to announce the signing of Transworld Identity - T-ID to the label's roster. T-ID is a newly formed Finnish/English rock band featuring vocalist Mila Bosa, guitarist Mika "Lamppari" Lamminsivu, keyboardist Juha "Junnu" Kinnunen, bassist Kasperi Kinnunen, and drummer Lacu Lahtinen. Their debut album will be released in 2023. T-ID's music draws inspiration from the core foundations of hard rock music, showcasing a feel-good factor that will get your adrenaline flowing while stopping to take the occasional momentum shift with a sensitive ballad that will make your spine tingle. "We're beyond excited to be working with Frontiers. This is our first album and when you are given an opportunity to join a great artist roster with some of your childhood heroes, it's very humbling," exclaims the band. After honing her skills as the frontwoman of a hard rock covers band, Mila Bosa wanted to take a new direction singing original songs and formed Transworld Identity. To help her fulfill her musical vision, she has been joined by a stellar cast of bandmates. Drummer Lacu Lahtinen is a showman behind the kit, who has spent time in Hanoi Rocks and vocalist Michael Monroe's solo band. Since 2008, Lacu has been part of one of Finland’s biggest bands, Popeda, who recently announced their disbandment. Guitarist Mika "Lamppari" Lamminsivu was a founding member of Baby Green and, later, progressive rockers Technical Justice. He has also played with Michael Monroe and Dave Lindholm. Keyboardist Juha "Junnu" Kinnunen's resume includes gigs with many big names, including a long stint with Finnish rock legend Muska Babitzin. He has also played alongside Marco Hietala and Ryan Roxie. Bassist Kasperi Kinnunen, despite his young age, is a very accomplished multi-instrumentalist. Aside from being keyboardist Junnu's son, Kasperi is also known for his other band Metallileka and the multiple musicals he has been in. The Nordics have an established track record of producing top-notch hard rock and metal music and Finland's Transworld Identity continue that fine tradition. Be sure to follow the band's social media to keep up to date with news about their debut album "Seven Worlds", tour dates, and more.

Album out March 24th. Some changes in the line-up. From Escape Music: Chris Ousey has had an excellent singing career that goes way back to the times of “Monroe” and “Virginia Wolf” and along the way we have had “The Distance”, “Ozone” and “Snakecharmer” but he will always be known for the much loved “Heartland”. He is nicknamed “The man with the golden tonsils” and that is a fine accolade indeed for he has earned it. His effortless vocal range has gained him a top spot in the world of classic UK hard rock. Chris has also recorded two fine solo albums “Rhyme and Reason” and “Dream Machine”. Jim Kirkpatrick is a well respected guitar player, best known for playing with rock band FM and completing the line-up are Billy Sheehan and Nigel Glockler who, again, have a fine pedigree in rock / metal circles. “The Flood” have recorded their debut album “Hear us out” and in doing so have given us 12 tracks of fine heavy rock music. Incidentally, this is proper hard driving old school rock with a real meaty vibe to it. Songs Like “Overdrive”, “I can’t stop” and “Til dawn us do part” are fine examples of the quality shown here, but there are simply just no fillers as they move from one song to the next. It’s also a bonus to have the great Didge Digital (ex FM) playing keyboards. It’s about time we had a good original heavy rock album that is worth talking about, so, in their own words, just “Hear us Out” !! Track List: 1- Dangerous Dawn 3:57 2- The devil he don’t care 4:19 3- Fight or Flight 4:00 4- Can I call it home 5:18 5- Overdrive 3:25 6- My kind of heaven 3:39 7- The Flood 4:21 8- Stand up 3:44 9- I can’t stop 6:42 10- A reason to change 4:22 11- Til dawn us do part 3:38 12- A taste of what’s to come 4:24 The Flood is: Chris Ousey – Vocals (Heartland / Solo / Virginia Wolf / Snakecharmer Jim Kirkpatrick – Guitars (FM / Diesel) Billy Sheehan – Bass (Mr. Big / Winery dogs)’ Nigel Glockler – Drums (Saxon / Six by Six / Toyah) Didge Digital – Keyboards:(ex FM)

New lyric video for 'Our Time'.

Surprise, surprise. ADV again... From Frontiers: Frontiers Music Srl is pleased to announced the signing of Demons Down, a new band featuring two talented up-and-coming musicians, vocalist James Robledo (Sinner's Blood) and guitarist Francesco Savino (False Memories), along with hard rock scene veterans guitarist Jimi Bell (House of Lords, Autograph), drummer Ken Mary (ex-House of Lords, Alice Cooper, Fifth Angel, etc.), and bassist Chuck Wright (Quiet Riot, bass, ex-House of Lords, etc.). Their debut album, "I Stand" sees this gathering of young performers and established skill players delivering a quintessential classic hard rock album. Demons Down traffics in a hard rock sound that references the late '80s/early '90s movement where massive hooks, huge melodies, and lush keyboards were the order of the day. But this is no simple exercise in paying tribute to yesteryear as the music rocks hard to compliment the vocal talents of Robledo (who has, sonically, been compared to the likes of Jorn Lande and Russell Allen). Fans of early House Of Lords material and their sonic peers from that time period as well as Robledo's debut solo album, "Wanted Man", will have much to enjoy here. James Robledo is a Chilean vocalist who comes from a family of musicians with prominent places in the history of Chilean music, with both national and international success. In his youth, he began his foray into metal and rock, but in 2016, James took part in the popular TV show THE VOICE CHILE 2, where his participation generated a stir thanks to his outstanding vocal performances. Since then, he has become a more active member of the larger hard rock/metal community and with Frontiers, he has released one solo album, "Wanted Man" and an album, "The Mirror Star" with Chilean metal band Sinner's Blood, whom are also currently preparing their second album for release. Francesco Savino is an Italian guitarist and songwriter who founded the up-and-coming gothic metal band False Memories in 2015. That band's latest release, "The Last Night Of Fall," (2021) was met with praise from both fans and metal media alike. The band also released a covers EP, "Echoes Of A Reflection" and a live EP, "Live Until The Twilight" since the release of their last studio album. With his songwriting partner Rossella Moscatello (who is the lead vocalist for False Memories), Franceso has also been contributing songs to Frontiers and is working on the next False Memories album.Jimi Bell is an established hard rock guitarist who is currently a member of both House Of Lords and Autograph, and, of course, Demons Down. Bell, a Connecticut native, was inducted into the New England Music Hall in 2020. In addition to his work with various bands over the years, he has done a wealth of studio work for sports outlets like ESPN, WWE, Impact Wrestling, and NASCAR. Bell is an official endorser of Roberts Guitar, Viper Guitars, Charvel Guitars, PVX Guitar, Funk Guitars, Ovation Guitars, GHS Strings, Rocktron, Randall, Marshall Amps (Europe), and KickAss Cables. He is also the inventor of the SHREDNECK. Chuck Wright is an American bassist, best known as a member of Quiet Riot. He originally joined Quiet Riot in 1982, playing bass on the tracks "Metal Health (Bang Your Head)" and "Don't Wanna Let You Go," as well as singing background vocals on all tracks from the 1983 album Metal Health. In addition to Quiet Riot, whom he has played with intermittently, Wright has played with Giuffria, House Of Lords, Ted Nugent, Alice Cooper, and Heaven & Earth, to name a few, over the years. Drummer Ken Mary’s lengthy career in music has seen him play in a wide variety of genres that showcased his wide ranging skills at the instrument. In addition to being a drummer, Ken is also an engineer, writer, vocalist, and award winning producer. He has sold a combined 5 million (plus) albums globally over the entirety of his body of work. His drumming can be heard on albums from Alice Cooper, Jordan Rudess, Northern Light Orchestra, Kip Winger, House of Lords, The Beach Boys, Impelliterri, Don Dokken, Fifth Angel, Bonfire, and many more, and of course, very soon, Demons Down.

Press release: Emotional Fire was from the beginning an idea of the same team behind the Gathering of Kings project, which with three records in the bag achieved great success on the melodic rock scene and created a respected name among fans around the world. For many years there was a dream to start a Melodic Rock / AOR band completely without men (The music industry is crying out for this. Rock music needs more women!). To keep a long story relatively short and not as boring as most presentations tend to be, they put together a list of musicians they wanted to join the project and started making contact. Only the best were good enough and only those who could share the passion for the project were chosen. The band consisting of Therés Enström (Vocals), Mia Moilanen (Guitar & Vocals), Ellinor Asp (Bass & Vocals), Linnea Waljestål (Drums & Vocals) and Annika Argerich (Keyboard) will release their first song and video January 7th. At least 3 more singles will be released in the spring and a full-length after the summer. The band makes its live debut at Rocknytt Cruise in April. More shows will be announced soon!

Featuring The Night Flight Orchestra, Captain Black Beard and Soilwork members. "Running Wild" is taken from Nighthawk's upcoming album 'Prowler', to be released May 13 through Mighty Music.

The new album 'Deep Connection' out now digitally. CD to be released in the near future. From FB: Happy New Year guys!! Shortly our new album "Deep Connection" will be available digitally, followed by a physical silver pressed copy some weeks after. This time there will also be the band website from where you can buy the new album and our prehistoric album from 2019 and some other merch will come available in the future. We will keep you updated! Have a good one! FN

Limited copies? Like Escape Music? MelodicRock Classics? To name a few. I guess they all suck... As a customer, I never had an issue with AOR Heaven.

New song 'Love Wins In The End'.

New song 'Higher Ground'. From Frontiers: Seventh Crystal, who stormed on the melodic rock scene in 2021 with their stunning debut album "Delirium", have announced the release of their second full-length, "Wonderland". Picking up where their debut left off, but taking everything up a level (or two, really), "Wonderland" sees the bands taking the unique formula that worked so well for them and expanding upon it. This is melodic rock for the 21st century. Seventh Crystal is a stunning new rock band from the fertile Swedish music scene that was put together by singer Kristian Fyhr (Perpetual Etude). Initially, Kristian wanted to pursue a solo project. but when the songs started to take form, he realized he wanted to involve more musicians. So, he moved to vocals only and brought in Johan Älvsång (Pinstripe Conspiracy, Lamashtu) on keyboards/piano and Olof Gadd (Osukaru) on bass as the first key pieces, and then recruited Anton Roos on drums and Emil Dornerus on guitar to complete the line-up. After the release of their debut album, Gustav Linde joined the band as their second guitarist. Seventh Crystal's music can best be described as arena rock with melodic rock influences. If you love the new wave of Scandinavian hard rock embodied by the likes of One Desire, H.E.A.T., and other bands who bring a huge sense of melody to modern rock, then this band is going to be right up your alley. And, certainly, "Wonderland" will be a MUST HEAR for you. Tracklisting: 1. Wonderland 2. Higher Ground 3. Hollow 4. Million Times 5. My Own Way 6. Imperfection 7. In The Mirror 8. Next Generation 9. Someday 10. Rodeo Line-Up: Kristian Fyhr - Lead Vocals Johan Älvsång - Keyboard/Backing Vocals Emil Dornerus - Guitar/Backing Vocals Gustav Linde - Guitar Olof Gadd - Bass/Backing Vocals Anton Roos - Drums/Percussion
