SCEPTOR sign worldwide deal with PURE STEEL RECORDS

Founded in 2009, the band were together through various incarnations, until their mutual departure in 2014. The band has since reformed in December of 2019.

All of the members that currently comprise SCEPTOR are well known musicians that were, at one time, members of Titan Steel, Roxxcalibur, Attacker, Bastard Nation and Hammer King.

Their single, “Introducing...Sceptor” was released in 2010 with the original singer Bob Mitchell. The single "Powerhouse" B/W "Shadows In The Maze" was an outstanding offering from both fans and the press.

The single is now limited and rare but it will be Re-Mastered and will be as bonustracks on the new album.

SCEPTOR are now back with a new Line-Up with founding member and guitarist Torsten Lang at the forefront and the return of the bands original singer Bob Mitchell.

Bandstatement:
"The new album is nearly completely written, so all is progressing better than expected! Also, we previously announced on our Facebookpage that our return album will be titled "RISE TO THE LIGHT"! To say we are excited would truly be an understatement. We are looking forward to bringing you, the Fans of Heavy Metal our new Musical offering. Stay tuned and Thank YOU One and All!"

More News coming soon!

SCEPTOR - "Rise To The Light" - Cover, Tracklist, Release Date: 24th September 2021

The release date of the of the new album "Rise To The Light" by the Power/Epic Metal Band SCEPTOR on CD is September 24th, 2021.

Founded in 2009, SCEPTOR are a German / American cooperation, currently consisting of Torsten "Todde" Lang (gui, Ex-RITUAL STEEL, Ex-TITAN STEELE), Bob Mitchells (voc, THE HOUNDS OF HASSELVANDER, Ex-ALCHEMY X, Ex- ATTACKER), Timo "Moe" Nolden (gui, BASTARD NATION), KK Basement (bas, ex-ADORNED GRAVES, ex-HAMMER KING) and Florian Bodenheimer (dru, HELL PATRÖL). After the 7" “Introducing… Sceptor" released in 2010 and the full length album “Take Command!" released in 2012, the band split up in 2014. Anno 2021 the warriors are now returning to the spotlight with “Rise to the Light”.

Like in the past, finest heavy metal in the tradition of the 80s is offered. Typically German material is only partially represented, as U.S. American influences are quiet present and the double leads have their origin in the NWoBHM era. Direct comparisons are rather difficult, what is certainly not a disadvantage. Mid-tempo pounders (“Crown of Nails”, “Rise to the Light”) are meeting faster headbangers (“Sovereign”, “Spartacus”), as well as the semi-ballade “Armor Black”, so that friends of traditional steel won’t be disappointed. Robert Romagna (Audiostahl) is responsible for the sound and mastering and has given the album the right mix between tradition and modernity.
