Yuval Kramer, producer and guitarist for Israeli Prog-Metal band AMASEFFER, recently announced the approach of a new project ­­- REIGN OF THE ARCHITECT; a new sci-fi saga, featuring some well-known guest musicians and vocalists, as well as introducing fresh, new talents.

Reign Of The Architect is an international collaboration started by Mauricio Bustamante, Mexican drummer, and Yuval Kramer himself. It has been in production for the last four years. In 2010, Mauricio joined Yuval in Jerusalem, Israel, to finally begin recording their mutual effort.

Reign Of The Architect have uploaded the new track, 'We Must Retaliate', from the upcoming album, Rise, featuring vocalist Jeff Scott Soto (YNGWIE MALMSTEEN).

The band comments: "It was an unbelievable pleasure to work on the material with Jeff, who provides not only an amazing vocal performance, but exhibits powerful and theatrical abilities. He was the perfect choice for this role and we are happy that the opportunity to work with him went through! Right now, we are working hard on our debut concert and very soon we'll post new updates on our Facebook page! Help us spread the word(s), because when we'll come play for you live, we need you to scream with us WE MUST RETALIATE!"

The new track is streaming below:

The story will unfold over the course of two albums. The first part, Rise, to be released later in 2012; "A fit year for an ending of a tale," they say.

Joining Mauricio (drums) and Yuval (guitars), are Israeli vocalists: Yotam Avni (Prey for Nothing), Tom Gefen, Davidavi (Vidi) Dolev, Adva Kramer and Grace Hannah Woolf.

The album will also include guest appearances by some well-known artists, such as Jeff Scott Soto, bassist Mike LePond (SYMPHONY X), keyboardist Joost Van Der Brooek (AYREON, STAR ONE), bassist Kyle Honea and more.

"Even though we had the chance to collaborate with some of our favorite musicians out there," Mauricio and Yuval ask to add, "we wanted to introduce fresh and unknown artists, both instrumentalists and vocalists, to the world. Artists we can guarantee will blow your mind!"

Reign Of The Architect's debut show will be held on June 6th at Hangar 11 club in Tel Aviv, as the support act of Symphony X and will be followed by a European tour.
