AXE HERO annuncia l'uscita del nuovo singolo - Dream the Universe

 


AXE HERO PRESENTA "DREAM THE UNIVERSE" – IL NUOVO VIAGGIO SONORO FIRMATO HEART OF STEEL RECORDS


La storica band italiana AXE HERO, tra le pionieristiche formazioni Hard 'n' Heavy della scena nazionale, annuncia con orgoglio l'imminente uscita del nuovo singolo "Dream the Universe" sotto l'egida di Heart of Steel Records.


"Dream the Universe" è una ballad, un viaggio attraverso la consapevolezza e la maturità, dove l'amore si manifesta nella sua forma più pura, consolidata e rassicurante. Le melodie potenti e raffinate del chitarrista Dave Moby Laperni si fondono con i testi evocativi di Mirko DeFox che celebrano una natura incontaminata e vitale, riflettendo la profondità emotiva e la crescita artistica che hanno sempre contraddistinto gli AXE HERO.


Nati ufficialmente nel 1981, gli AXE HERO rappresentano una delle prime espressioni dell'Hard 'n' Heavy italiano. La band, guidata dai fratelli Galliazzo - Mirko DeFox (voce) e David Johansen (batteria) con Dave Moby Laperni alla chitarra, Paul Blondie Gidoni al basso e Dave Ian Valle alla chitarra - ha tracciato un percorso ineguagliabile nel panorama rock tricolore, collezionando successi e ricevendo riconoscimenti internazionali grazie a una serie di demo e produzioni discografiche che hanno fatto la storia.


Con una carriera costellata di momenti memorabili, come l'uscita della celebre demo "Brainstorm" del 1983 e le infuocate esibizioni live accanto a leggende dell'heavy metal italiano, gli AXE HERO hanno lasciato un segno indelebile nel cuore degli appassionati. Ogni brano della band porta con sé l'eredità di anni di dedizione e passione, celebrata in pubblicazioni di culto grazie alla DeFox Records e alla Aua Records di Gianluca Sinicco (purtroppo recentemente scomparso) e riconosciuta dalla stampa specializzata di tutto il mondo.


Oggi, con "Dream the Universe", registrato presso gli studios del producer Gian Dian, gli AXE HERO dimostrano ancora una volta la loro capacità di emozionare e innovare, rimanendo fedeli alle loro radici ma guardando sempre avanti. Il nuovo singolo sarà presto disponibile su tutte le principali piattaforme digitali, pronto a conquistare le orecchie e i cuori di vecchi e nuovi fan.



Preparati a sognare l'universo con gli AXE HERO.

AXE HERO – Il passato incontra il futuro, il sogno diventa realtà.



BIOGRAFIA: Gli AXE HERO sono nati ufficialmente nel 1981 e sono certamente una delle prime Hard ’n’ Heavy metal bands apparse in Italia. 

Costituiti dall'asse portante dei Galliazzo brothers, Mirko DeFox alla voce e David Johansen alla batteria, con Fabio Pico Piccotin al basso e Paul Blondie alla chitarra e tastiere debuttano con la prima demotape intitolata "Drive in metal", registrata artigianalmente in sala prove raccogliondo i primi tiepidi riscontri dalle primordiali fanzines, tra le quali Fireball e Hedbanger. Nel 1983 esce la prima vera demo intitolata "Brainstorm" registrata con un otto tracce analogico in uno studio di Padova che contiene due songs che ricevono subito complimenti entusiastici, i brani si intitolano "Lovin'Japan" e "Country side" con la band che si è stabilizzata con Dave Moby Laperni alla chitarra e Fabio Pico Duarte al basso. 


Grazie al supporto di alcune radio locali, quali Radio San Bonifacio, Tele Radio Veneta, Radio Stella, Radio Stereo Superstar e Radio Atestina, ma anche Radio Peter Flowers di Milano, inizia un intensa attività live che porta i nostri ad aprire come gruppo "spalla" le serate a personaggi del music system televisivo come Jo Squillo e Garbo. Dopo poco tempo sull'onda dell'entusiasmo la band pubblica una nuova demo tape intitolata "It'Rock (Against all)" che riscuote importanti e positive recensioni su tutti i migliori Rock magazines dell'epoca, da ricordare "Metal Forces" considerata la Bibbia metallica britannica, "Shock Power" zine tedesca condotta da Alex Gernandt (che poi diventerà capo redattore della celebre rivista patinata "Bravo"), su "Barst" e "Metallian" in Belgio, "Metal Brigade" in Brasile e Rockerilla in Italia. Il gruppo si guadagna un ottima fama live grazie alle performances agli heavy metal fest di Padova e Verona assieme a gente come i Crying Steel, Hocculta e Devils Claws dove viene presentato uno show molto shockante, con la band che adotta un look trasgressivo e due modelle seminude.

Nel 1985 gli Axe Hero vengono contattati dalla label americana, da Waukegan, Illinois la King Klassik Records (Hellcatz, Wrath) che invita la band a partecipare con un brano alla compilation di nuove bands emergenti. Il duo dei Galliazzo brothers recluta il vecchio e fidato Dave Moby alla chitarra in coppia con l'ex Captain Kill (in seguito Xipe) Piero Albanese e al basso Cesco Laperni, con questa line-up entrano nei prestigiosi Space Station studios ed incidono la canzone "Come back". Nel frattempo oltre oceano la rivista "Aardshock America" tributa a Mirko De Fox la palma di migliore vocalist europeo in campo Hard and Heavy.

Il disco della label americana non vedrà mai la luce, la società che la gestisce fallisce ed il brano viene così incluso nella demo tape "3°act" (1986) la prima a nome X-HERO, ma questa è un altra storia!

Two well-known personalities of the European music scene are hiding in the shadow of this project, but they don't want too much to be known about and want to keep an aura of mystery for this reason we find Cosmo Saint at the voice and the multi-instrumentalist Paul Blondie.

DeFox Records and Eur Records are proud to announce the return of PAUL & Electronics with a new single


DeFox Records and Eur Records are proud to announce the return of PAUL & Electronics with a single titled "Ethereal" Feat. Irene Brigitte, that will be available on the digital market from May 31th, 2018 in all the best webstores,  iTunes, Amazon, Spotify, Deezer, Google Play Music, Tidal, Shazam......and many more.

Ethereal is a song written almost by chance to complete a path started at the end of 2015 with the use of synths of the latest generation.
Paolo Electron had to find an expressive, warm and particular voice for an oneiric dreamy song like Ethereal. Thanks to the sound engineer Nik Freego with whom Paolo Electron has been collaborating for over 10 years, he met the brilliant singer Irene Brigitte.
Irene Brigitte, coming from very different experiences ranging from folk to baroque music, was able to capture with extreme delicacy the message and the evocative sound of Ethereal, enriching with skill and professionalism the electronic and ambient sounds of the piece.
The elaboration and modulation of Irene Brigitte's voice make the song charming and captivating.

Paolo Electron plans to continue to collaborate with Irene Brigitte as he believes it will be stimulating for both of them by producing positive feelings for an attentive listener.
The piece describes the positive and cathartic effect of the flute sound that heals all suffering and offers the possibility of redemption and a better life.

X-HERO official release date of Cosmic Virgin is November 19, 2017



Mirko DeFox and X-HERO to celebrate the 30 years since the release of the debut album, dated 1987, publish a EP entitled "Cosmic Virgin" with two unpublished tracks, "My ship knows" and "Long legs Razorblade" recorded in the middle of the years 2000 at the Vision Studios in Vicenza.

As Mirko tells, the band's repertoire was moving with melodic Hard Rock tunes with finest Prog Metal and Fusion.
Mirko's constant search for stylistic solutions away from homologation with trends and genres of the moment, leads him to create a different, visceral album where the glories of the past are barely perceptible, and the shades, riffs and arrangements so they become a chaotic collection of unexpressed moods.
For a variety of reasons, the album will never see the light but after a decade, some recordings will be released in the form of EP.



The song "My ship knows" is an explicit metaphor on the journey of humanity in search of a truth until now denied, while "Long legs Razorblade" evokes contradictions of sometimes life-threatening, sometimes deadly and relentless life.
With Mirko DeFox the line-up was completed by Herman Tonini (current band axeman) and Paris Bertoldo on guitars, Davide Pangrazzi on drums and Ivano Pangrazzi on bass.
The X-HERO performed live in northern Italy and in Slovenia and Croatia, to remember the performances of the 2005 and 2007 editions of the 80's Italian Metal Legion Festival, in 2005 the 80's Italian Metal Legion WINTER's Season, concerts with Bud Tribe, Rain, Dark Ages, Heat, Rosko's.

The visonary cover artwork is made by the extraordinary RRR Remi Real Rock for ANL.

The official release date is November 19, 2017, and the product will be distributed around the world on the best digital stores, iTunes, Amazon, Spotify, Deezer, Google Play Music and many more.

Heart Of steel Records is proud to launch new single of Nocturna A.D.


DeFox Records and Heart Of steel Records are proud to launch The last song of Nocturna A.D. with Andrea Racco (Ralkeon), titled "Time fails Us". 
The Single will be available on major digital music channels from Sunday, May 15 and will be launched worldwide.

The Nocturna A.D.'s project was born in Turin in 1999 by guitarist and composer Davide Masuelli. The first compositions were trying to melt the dark ambient music of the Raison d'Etre with the Gothic Rock sounds of the London After Midnight. The intention was to convey feelings and emotions even without using the voice.
The project has began as a trio formed by Davide and Massimo Cannoniero on rhythm and lead guitar and Luca Ramasso at the bass. The first job does not get the expected success because different points of view regarding music begin to rise. Therefore the members of the band start to take different paths. From Dark and Gothic style, to thrash metal style, Sodom, Slayer and early Metallica.
The compositional process does not stop and in 2008 Davide has his first 4 tracks finished.

The heavier style, from the first compositions requires a singing part, and the meeting with musician and sound engineer Andreas Polito owner of ROCK LAB in Turin, known for his work with artists such as Marco Minnemann (Joe Satriani, Steven Wilson Paul Gilbert etc..), Fabio Lione (Rhapsody, Vision Divine, Kamelot, Angra etc.), John Macaluso (Symphony X, James La Brie, Yngwie Malmsteen, etc.), Ricardo Confessors (Angra Shaman, etc.) marks the beginning of a new project page.
From that moment Davide dedicates himself exclusively to the song's composition while Andreas will ensure the preparation of vocals recording, masterfully performed by Andrea Racco (Ralkeon). Singer of the Opening Scenery and recently of the Etherna, the band's keyboardist Alessio Lucatti of theVision Divine. The lyrics are headed by Luca Ramasso.
Everything comes to life in 2010 with a project that includes 4 tracks called “Where the Shadows Stalk”.
The enthusiasm for the consents received, leads Davide to compose 5 more songs to rely again on Luca for the lyrics' writing. This time the need to give a professional touch in this new work brings Davide to exploit the abilities of the multi-instrumentalist Andreas Polito for the execution of the parts as guitar and bass and programmer for the drums and keyboards. Giving him the task of sound engineer and producer of the vocal lines, this time performed by Ralkeon.

In 2012, they released their second demo called "Mother". In this work we find the styles and influences from the beginning, in fact the sound and atmosphere are more gloomy and melancholy, with hints of electronic music and rock is 'less aggressive and more' melodic.
Special guest John Macaluso, drummer of international renown, now in Symphony X, known for his work with artists such as Yngwie J. Malmsteen and James LaBrie (Canadian singer best known for his role as lead singer of Dream Theater). In the songs "Mother" and "Along the Road" Macaluso worked on their submission giving a personal interpretation.
This work is well welcomed and received very good reviews both for the composition part and music.
In April 2014, for legal reasons, the original name is changed from Nocturne to Nocturna A.D.
The first two Ep, however, retain the original name.
The composition of the songs from the new album "Run Through Hell" of 2014 collects old song of the period 1999-2001. "Nothing to be everything" and "A new power" deepen the trademark thrash of the project, "Marionette" stretches in fact a bridge between Gothic Rock (London After Midnight) and the Italian Progressive Rock (Goblin), then moved toward atmospheres decidedly more Hard Rock, as in the case of "Subliminal Messages" and "Anger lives in the Decay".

In 2015 the group decided to experiment with a cover as a matter of affection, because Sepultura have left an indelible mark in the writing of the songs of the band, and with this piece we tried to do them homage. The comparisons are inevitable but he honored this group is a matter of pride. In particular, "Territory" because the text, even though it was written in 1993, is well suited to the political situation that you are living in this time.
It 'a journey into the third world oppressed, exploited and terribly miserable and Sepultura have caught so well the peculiarities that have churned out as monumental album Chaos AD, but the thing that scares you that despite the years pass, the screams and lyrics by Max on those disks unforgettable are still terribly current and concrete.
