Highlord sign with Punishment 18 Records; new album 'The Warning after' on its way

The Italian Power Metal band Highlord has just signed up with Punishment 18 Records. The new album will be released in March. Highlord started in 1996 as Avatar and has released 6 full albums up to now. Their most recent album, 'The Death of the Artists', was released in 2009 by Scarlet Records.

Highlord are proud to present their seventh album: 'The Warning after'. This album features 10 tracks of pure melodic metal following and improving the acclaimed style of the previous album, 'The Death of the Artists', which saw two tracks featured as DLC of the famous game RockBand™.

The new full-length album was been recorded in June 2012 at New Sin Studios (WhiteSkull, Heldritch, Domine, ElvenKing, SecretSphere, Labyrinth, DarkMoor, Arthemis), engineered and mastered by Luigi Stefanini, the "Italian power metal guru", to grant the perfect sound that the band wanted for their new tracks. The album includes song 'Arcade Warriors' featuring Ralf Scheepers from Primal Fear.
