First single "The Cherubims"
-
Sneakout Records & Burning Minds Music Group are pleased to announce the renewal of their recording agreement with Italian hard ’n’ heavy band Anims, for the release of their new album “Good ‘n’ Evil”.The album is the result of intense work developed in the studio. Francesco Di Nicola (Danger Zone, Crying Steel, Krell), author and co-author of the songs, plays both the bass guitars and guitars; the arrangement and writing of the drum tracks are done by Paolo Caridi (Ellefson-Soto, Reb Beach, Geoff Tate, Michele Luppi), a professional with international experience with whom Francesco Di Nicola has already collaborated on the recent "Deserts" album by Krell. The voice is the warm and characterising one of Elle Noir, the winning element of the 2022 debut album "God is a Witness". The diffusion and intensity of the choruses, two pairs of rhythmic guitars that virtualize the presence of two guitarists and the processing of sound, are the elements that give the work a particularly rich setting.“Good 'n' Evil” contains “Liar” and “Satellite”, two unreleased songs from the time in which Francesco Di Nicola collaborated with Crying Steel in the early 90s: a period without publications for the Bolognese group despite their constant presence in the metal scene. The physical CD features one more track, not present on the digital version: "Victim Of Time", the title track of the album with which Danger Zone officially debuted in 1984 and in whose lineup Francesco Di Nicola was present.The lyrics of the album, mainly composed by Chiara Mencarelli and integrated by Francesco Di Nicola, co-producers of this album, are of profound spiritual inspiration. As the title “Good 'n' Evil” suggests, the common denominator is the contrast between good and evil and the elevation to victory of the former over the latter. Biblical references are frequent and the reflection of a meeting place between man and man and between man and God are reoccurring.“Good 'n' Evil”, like the previous album, was also recorded at Pri Studio in Bologna, Italy; Roberto Priori's ability and the musical understanding shared with Francesco Di Nicola resulting from a forty-year friendship, are the ingredients that contributed to the creation of the exact sounds which were envisioned when composing the songs.“Good ‘n’ Evil” is scheduled to be released on May 31st, 2024.Tracklist:1. The Cherubims2. Fear Of The Night3. Where Were You4. Satellite5. Leviathan6. Dry Bones7. Liars8. Lena9. Victim Of Time (CD exclusive bonus track)10. Nebuchadnezzar11.

I said they collaborated, not that he wrote the lyrics. I respect your opinion, although not very elegant, which however remains questionable.
-
Just out of curiosity, what exactly is the problem?
-
Sadly, I can't say anything if you hear a heavy accent, but instead, I can confirm the band collaborated with a British novelist/songwriter to deliver quality lyrics.And yes, that's Michele Luppi!

Street Symphonies Records & Burning Minds Music Group are glad to announce the release of "Toxic Love", the first single from hard rockers Louderyell, available on all major streaming and digital download platforms.The band delivers catchy, in-your-face hard rock that mixes a deep 80s vibe with a more modern sound. This young, Italian quartet debuts with a song that tells of a tormented love story. As in the worst of nightmares, this turns the protagonist into the victim of a sneaky and petty partner. Unfortunately, it's not just a bad dream. It’s real life. To feel good, you have to raise your head, put the pieces back together, and have the strength to make a clean break, however painful it might be.Produced at Sonic Bang Studio in Isorella, Brescia, Italy by co-songwriter, Oscar Burato; "Toxic Love" comes with a video from Moviedel Productions. Lead vocals were recorded and produced by Davide "Dave Rox" Barbieri (Wheels Of Fire, Raintimes, Room Experience, StreetLore) at his Power Station Studio in Arona, Novara, Italy.The band is currently hard at work on their debut album. "Toxic Love" is just a taste of what’s to come.Line-up:Linda Binaschi, vocalsNicola Mafessanti, guitarLuca Mafessanti, bassAndrea Golti, drumsWeb/Social Links:

Art Of Melody Music & Burning Minds Music Group are excited to announce a new deal with Norwegian AOR sensation, Satin, for the reissue of his first two full-length albums, "Satin" and "It's About Time".Born in the late Seventies, Tommy Nilsen grew up with the music of Elvis, The Beatles, and Smokie. As a child, he discovered KISS and Bon Jovi, two artists that would heavily influence his future music career. He started to play guitar at the age of nine and performed on a local television show at the age of eleven. He then founded the soft rock band Pegasus with his brother Ronny and won a Norwegian Grammy in 2013. After releasing "A Million To One - The KISS covers" under the monicker Satin, in 2005 he was featured on the "Gods Of Thunder - A Norwegian Tribute To KISS" record. His self-titled debut album was released through his label Verum Music in April 2014, followed by "It's About Time" in 2017. After posting online a new single, "Going Your Way" in November 2021, he was contacted by Art Of Melody Music/Burning Minds Music Group: he didn't plan to realize an album but when they told him they wanted to work together, he said that he could record ten songs and send them over. If they liked what they heard, they could offer a proposal. Those 10 songs were amazing and became Satin's third full-length album, "Appetition". Tommy wrote all the songs, played all the instruments, and produced all his three records, showing a talent that goes far beyond being just a good singer."Following the successful release of Appetition, we noticed a wide interest for Satin's previous albums - says Label Manager Stefano Gottardi - so we started talking with Tommy about a possible reissue. Despite being relatively new, and with a Japanese re-release already on their part, the two records went sold out very quickly and are currently hard to find on a cheap price. Our version will include all the Japanese Bonus tracks, and CD booklets will feature introductory liner notes written by renowned British rock journalist Rob Evans (of Powerplay and Fireworks magazines fame). Both reissues will be printed in a very limited quantity of 500 copies, so make sure to complete your collection if it's missing these first two albums"."Satin" and "It's About Time" are scheduled for release on September 29, 2023, via Art Of Melody Music/Burning Minds Music Group, and distributed worldwide by Plastic Head."Satin" Tracklist:01. Fire The Shot02. Don't Know The Words03. I've Been Crazy04. Life Will Never Slow Down05. I Want Us06. Friends07. Some Call It Love08. Leave It Be09. Part Of It10. I Don't Need Anybody11.

Art Of Melody Music & Burning Minds Music Group are proud to announce all the details of "From Now On", the first official solo album by Swedish AOR singer, keyboardist and songwriter, Thomas Lassar.
Thomas started to play piano as a young child, encouraged by his mother. He quickly began playing in local bands in Sweden until the late 80's when, together with his bandmates, he formed what became then one of Sweden’s most loved, cult, AOR bands, Crystal Blue. Having worked as keyboard player and backing vocalist on the first two albums ("Out From The Blue" in 1993 and "Caught In The Game" in 1994), Thomas took the microphone duties for the third Crystal Blue album, "Detour" (released in 2003 by MTM Music). Despite highly-positive feedback from media and fans all around the world, the band split up.
After years spent performing as session musician for various artists (Last Autumn's Dream & Charming Grace between others), Thomas felt it was time to go into the studio and start writing and recording some unreleased material, during the pandemic while the world was in lockdown. The result was ten classy AOR tracks, which Thomas sent to Burning Minds Music Group's A&R team for evaluation. Excited by what they heard, label manager Stefano Gottardi and A&R man, Pierpaolo "Zorro" Monti, immediately contacted Lassar to offer him a deal. The feeling was almost immediate, thanks also to Zorro and Thomas’ collaboration on the Charming Grace debut album, back in 2012."From Now On" is going to be one of the highlights of 2023, especially for fans of Scandinavian AOR, with a sound reminiscent of other Swedish melodic rock acts like Crystal Blue, Work Of Art, and Crossfade. It also features Rob Marcello (Danger Danger) as very special guest on three tracks. The release is scheduled on April 14, 2023 via Art Of Melody Music / Burning Minds Music Group, in perfect timing to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the release of last Crystal Blue's album, "Detour". The CD booklet features introductory liner notes written by Jörg Bonszkowski (Rock It! Magazine, Rock Avenue Radio Show), with graphics created by Aeglos Art.The first single, "Whatever I Do", features an amazing guitar solo by Rob Marcello (Danger Danger).Buy digital / Stream "Whatever I Do" now:Tracklist:01.
