Signum Regis "The Eyes Of Power" Release date: November 12th!

Signum Regis was formed by bass player and songwriter Ronnie König in 2007, and the self-titled debut album was released 2008. The music is focused on melodic metal with various metal influences. You might hear some elements typical for NWOBHM, thrash, progressive, neoclassical, hard rock, symphonic or even jazz. Still the sound is rather old school than modern. Significant is also the shredding guitar of young Slovak guitarist - Filip Koluš. The position of lead vocals features the well-known Göran Edman [Yngwie Malmsteen, John Norum etc.] who fits to the music perfectly.


The new album "The Eyes Of Power" is a one of a kind conceptual metal album. The whole concept revolves around real historical events that defined the Roman – Persian relations during the late antiquity (224 – 630 AD) in the Middle East. With a clear aim to capture the atmosphere of that particular time period and to keep the language as authentic as possible, Original written sources and scholar literature were carefully studied. On this album you can hear many oriental sounding riffs and chord progressions.

All instruments were recorded in Ronnie's Vindex studio in Slovakia and vocals in Edman Studio inVärmdö, Sweden. Mastering took place in Vancouver, Canada by Greg Reely [Fear Factory, Machine Head, Coldplay]. The album sounds fresh and live, the drum tracks were not quantized and only a minimal amount of triggers were used for kick and snare drum. All this to create a sound that fits the concept and story the best way possible.

“The Eyes of Power” is a masterpiece of epic, melodic metal. Don’t miss out!
