SpellBlast started their music career in 1999 presenting themselves as a power metal band; their first approach to the audience was in 2004 with the release of a demo titled "Ray Of Time". Afterwards the band performed at several gigs: to be noted among the others some shows along with Stormlord and the attendance to the BloodStock06 English Festival, where they played on the main stage alongside bands like Primal Fear, My Dying Bride, Axel Rudi Pell and Brainstorm. Just before the end of 2006 SpellBlast released their first full length album, HORNS OF SILENCE, recorded, mixed and mastered at New Sin Studio (where bands like Labyrinth, Domine, White Skull, Elvenking even worked on the making of their albums). Always keeping their “power-metal” origin in sounds, SpellBlast started moving towards new folk influences, getting an enhancement in their works even due to the presence of Damnagoras (Elvenking, Leprauchan) as special guest. Immediately after the band signed a contract with Fuel Records and the distribution of the CD "Horns Of Silence" begun in Italy by Self and around the world by Frontiers Records; to be noted a special release in Taiwan through J Stone (Division of Magnum Music). The launch of SpellBlast on the global metal scene was definitely done. At the same time there was a change in the line up of the band: Edo replaced Alberto at the drums and this led to a strengthening of the rhythmical section of the upcoming tracks; combining this matter to a much stronger approach to folk components, the band got a personal sound resulting from the mix of both folk and power elements, now winking at a heavy-epic metal. New album BATTLECRY, which will be released on 23rd April 2010, confirms this more powerful and aggressive style in the 12 tracks already recorded - again at the excellent New Sin Studio - this time with the extraordinary presence of Fabio Lione (Rhapsody of Fire / Vision Divine) and the support of Folkstone's bagpipes. The CD, completely self produced by the band, will be distributed by Self in Italy and by Twilight in the rest of the world. www.spellblast.com www.myspace.com/spellblast
