MAUSOLEUM GATE signs with Cruz Del Sur Music

Get ready for one of the most intriguing and fascinating debuts of 2014!

CRUZ DEL SUR MUSIC is extremely pleased and proud to welcome Finnish sensational newcomers MAUSOLEUM GATE to its roster!

A glorious and pure offering of retro Hard Rock/Heavy Metal, deeply rooted in a late-70s/early-80s  atmosphere. Forged in the blood of Saxon, in the power and rudeness of the NWOBHM movement, in the spritual, epic nature of Cirith Ungol but even in the elegance of Uriah Heep. A perfect band for Cruz Del Sur Music profile.

MAUSOLEUM GATE will release their self-titled debut album in mid-October under the sign of Cruz Del Sur Music, on compact disc, vinyl and digital formats. Their sold-out cassette EP Gateways For the Wicked will be soon re-press by the band itself on compact disc so watch out for it at the next Keep It True festival!

NWOBHM Legends SATAN Sign With Listenable Records

New Wave of British Heavy Metal Legends SATAN have recently inked a deal with France's Listenable Records.

The band is currently in the studio putting the finishing touches to an album entirely of new material written over the last 18 months. This is the culmination of a process that began when the original Court In The Act album line-up got together for an exclusive 'one-off' reunion show at Germany's 'KEEP IT TRUE' Festival last year.

This line-up had not performed together in 28 years. The band was somewhat overwhelmed with the response - ten minutes into headliners' CRIMSON GLORY's set the crowd could still be heard chanting for SATAN!

SATAN immediately booked more shows in Germany, Holland, Belgium, & London, and have since kept in close contact with each other, writing songs and making demos.

The new album, to be titled Life Sentence is scheduled for release in the spring of 2013. The full track listing is as follows:

Time to Die

Twenty Twenty Five

Cenotaph

Siege Mentality

Incantations

Testimony

Tears of Blood

Life Sentence

Personal Demons

Another Universe

Fittingly, this will mark the 30th anniversary of their greatly acclaimed debut Court In The Act. The new album will also feature the same line-up that appeared on that now-classic piece of metal history. 

Live footage of SATAN performing "Trial by Fire" at Germany's Metal Assault Festival 2012 has been posted for your viewing pleasure at this location. 

SATAN Line-up:

Brian Ross - vocals

Steve Ramsey - Guitar

Russ Tippins - Guitar

Graeme English - Bass
