Pleonexia

Pleonexia: debut album 'Break All Chains' out next month

The release date of the Pleonexia album 'Break All Chains' is January 17th, 2014. The preorder phase will start on January 3rd, 2014 in Pure Underground Records' webshop.

Pleonexia was founded in Turin/Italy in 2012. The sextet describes their music as "philosophical metal"; but you could also say that it is an interesting and fascinating mixture of classic heavy metal, some epic influences and a small dose of earthy, honest hard rock.

The ten songs on the debut album 'Break All Chains' all convince with discreet keyboard/synthesizer passages, clear but powerful vocals by frontman Michele Da Pila, virtuosic, partly double guitar leads and a precise drumming, without sounding in the least dull or uninspired. Sing-along-compatible, sometimes almost anthem-like choruses, a driving double bass and some slightly progressive or quieter parts can all be found on this album.

'Break All Chains' really holds the promise of its name. This long-player features lots of delightful elements of traditional heavy metal as a matter of course!
