New Power Metal release from Ireland!

[The Crystal King]

Hey guys,

We've released our new 3-track CD at last! Any fans of Power Quest, Gamma Ray, Stratovarius, Iron Maiden, Angra, Freedom Call, check it out! We hope you'll enjoy it! It was self-produced, and Karl Groom did the vocals at Thin Ice studios.

Get samples here:

CD art:

Two of us will be at the metalfest this weekend, and we'll bring some copies of the CD. I'll be wearing a rare Helloween "Keepers 1" tshirt (well, maybe not all weekend but one of the days!)!

At the moment we're trying to get an ultimatemetal forum, so when we do, hope you'll pop in and say hello.

This is awesome stuff. I love what I'm hearing from the samples... I'll have to order it now!

 

[Symphony]

These guys are seriously cool! I recommend EVERYONE check them out!

 

[Andiferum]

I'm liking what I hear. It's not often unsigned bands sound like much good!

 

[The Crystal King]

Thanks guys!

And thanks for the plug Steve
and for giving me some tips when I was mixing this... you'll notice, we took some of your advice and made the guitars a bit heavier - this previous mix was certainly more keyboard dominated.

Irish power metal? Hell yes! Gimmedatlink!

 

[fool_in_paradise]

Definitely checking this out when i get in. no speakers at work in the quiet office unfortunately even though it is Friday

Met up with the Karuna guys in Dudley! Really friendly fellas.....and we actually were in the same hotel as it turned out.

 

[MetalCodd]

I bought the CD at Metalfest. Great stuff!

 

[The Crystal King]

Thanks MetalCodd, your support is really appreciated! And also to the other who bought our cd from the stalls and from me.

And it was really cool meeting and hanging out with all the PQ, Fairyland,Pathosray,Dragonland, Vision Divine guys (amazing lineup eh?). The atmosphere at this festival really was something to behold.

Hope you enjoy it.

 

[1928]

This song is awesome, way to go!

 

[Alcaline]

At first glance I thought that said netherworld!

This stuff sounds great, I don't know how I missed it the first time around. Are you planning on doing any live shows?

 

[1928]

Just bought Neitherworld!

 

[looseunit]

i like the vocals

 

[The Crystal King]

Thanks for listening guys!! And thanks to all of those who bought it also, appreciate your support.

We are certainly planning live shows, and already have a few interested promoters here in Ireland for when we decide to do the Neitherworld mini-tour. Only question is when! I'm currently very busy writing/arranging the album, but when I'm happy with that I reckon we'll be hitting the rehearsal room and then getting out on the road..

 

[Power_Metal_Dom]

AhHA! You were among us 2 years ago with your spamming infiltration-y ways! I'm onto you Colin

 

[Symphony]

Funnily enough "Neitherworld" is the song I played to the rest of the guys when suggesting Colin come down for an audition.

Check his "join" date on the forum too

 

[1928]

Haha!
