Lanfear

Lanfear sign with Pure Legend Records

German progressive power metal band Lanfear have inked a record deal with Pure Steel Records' subsidiary Pure Legend Records.

The band commented: "Todays' music scene has not really that much to do with music. Labels don't search for high quality bands but chase trends to get a share of the decreasing pie. As a band who has been part of the scene for many years it's ridiculous to see how people try to puff hot air to something it will never be. Music is art, most people seem to forget about that! From the start our new label constantly bucked this trend with success. They attach importance on music instead of jumping on bandwagons. With our sixth album 'This Harmonic Consonance' we are now a proud part of the family and really look forward to a hopefully long cooperation.

Statement from the label: "We had an eye on the German veterans Lanfear since they started and we are very proud to welcome such a name on our label. Lanfear are known to give nothing about any trends. From start they did their own thing without looking to the right or left. Therefore, the band is obviously fitting very good to our label group. Its not necessary to mention that Lanfear are outstanding musicians and the new album is going to be an absolute killer.Welcome guys!"
