Heart Of Steel Records have issued the following press release:
Heart Of Steel Records is proud to announce the latest member of our family: WINTERS DAWN
Winters Dawn were formed in Greece during 1998, and - after various line-up changes – they recorded their first mini-CD, Nitro, in late 2003. Although, in the meantime, singer Stelios "Theo" relocated to Germany, the band recorded, during 2008, their full-length debut album called The Winter Is Dawning, which is now ready for an official worldwide release through Heart Of Steel Records.
The Winter Is Dawning is a perfect mix of US power metal a la SAVATAGE / CRIMSON GLORY / RIOT (Thundersteel era) and JAG PANZER, enforced by brilliant and emotional melodies that are carrying this special “old-school” metal touch. There are also moments of thunderous breakings when songs are getting even wilder thanks to selective speed metal touches a la early AGENT STEEL and ANNIHILATOR. That is why three excellent guitar players and icons in the metal genre like Jeff Waters (Annihilator), Theodore Ziras and Chris Caffery (SAVATAGE / DOCTOR BUTCHER / TRANS-SIBERIAN ORCHESTRA) believed in the band and recorded five incredible solos on the album!
As usual for all of our releases, the CD will have a deluxe full-color booklet with lyrics and pics.
Release-date: early May 2009.
