The new album from Gathering Of Kings called “First Mission” is set for release in late January 2019!

All songs written by hugely talented Victor Olsson except “The Runaway”, which was written by Maurice Gibb & Robin Gibb from Bee Gees. The song is a cover of Carolas hit single from 1986. So that’s our tribute to the best swedish female singer of all time!

TEN – NEW Album “Illuminati” ….OUT NOW….

“Illuminati” is said to be an elite, secret organization of world leaders, business authorities, innovators, artists, and other influential members of the global society. A coalition that unites influencers of all political, religious, and geographical backgrounds to further the prosperity of the human species as a whole. The album “Illuminati” brings the band’s atmospheres and sounds and weaves them into a reel of mysteries, esoteric tales, and elaborate spells, evoking embers that spark the imagination courtesy of the classic songwriting of vocalist Gary Hughes.

Following the success of the recent string of albums, from “Albion” to “Gothica”, Hughes is joined once again by guitarists Dann Rosingana, Steve Grocott and John Halliwell along with bass player Steve McKenna, keyboard maestro Darrel Treece-Birch, and drummer Max Yates. On their fourth outing as a collective unit, the musicians in TEN have raised the bar even higher than they had previously. The album is full of stunning guitar work over a rich keyboard, bass, and drum tapestry with Hughes’ rich vocals once again bringing the nuances of the intricate lyrics to life.

BIOGRAPHY:
Dale is a dreamy small city boy, born in Italy, class of 1981. His deep love affair with rock
music started when he was only 9. Spending his teens as an avid rock albums eater, at 17
he decided it was about time to have an actual role in the music scene so he picked up his first guitar and learned how to rock it playing along to his favorite records. The first bands then arrived bringing the chance to start writing original songs, developing his songwriter skills, love for deep lyrical content and building a huge live stage attitude. 18 years have then passed by playing in several bands, writing countless songs, gigging around Europe and growing either as a guitar player, a singer and songwriter. Now in 2018, with the precious help of producer extraordinaire Mario Percudani, he has the chance to fulfill his longtime dream and finally become a solo artist, presenting to the world his debut album “Handle With Care”, a romantic and sincere rock retrospective over what happened in his not-so-quite life during the last years plus his shared vision on today’s world. The first step of many to come!

“Begin Again” also introduces new keyboard player, Federico De Biase, into the band, and represents a big step forward in the quality of the songwriting provided by the original combo, Davide “Dave Rox” Barbieri (Vocals) and Stefano Zeni (Guitar). The new album also includes experienced contributors, Pierpaolo “Zorro” Monti (Raintimes, Shining Line, Charming Grace) and Gianluca Firmo (Room Experience, Firmo). The album offers an excellent mix of perfectly-balanced elements between the arena melodies unleashed in “Hollywood Rocks“, and the prominent guitar work of “Up For Anything“, featuring a bombastic and up-to-date sound thanks to the great mix and mastering work by Roberto Priori (Danger Zone, Raintimes, I.F.O.R.). The CD booklet features introductive liner notes written by seasoned Italian music writer Marco Aimasso (from Metal.it), while CD graphics have been marvelously designed once again by Aeglos Art (Airbound, Raintimes, Michael Kratz, Firmo). More info about the tracklist, release date, and special guests appearances will follow in the forthcoming weeks.
