Following their latest album Into Zero (2018), June 9th will see the release of The Fifth Dimension, the highly anticipated fifth full length record by Melodic Death Metal act Rise To Fall, which will be coming out on Noble Demon. Formed in 2006 in Bilbao (Basque Country) in northern Spain, Rise To Fall have established their well-deserved place within the metal scene over the past seventeen years. With a constant output and numerous live shows and festival appearances, Rise To Fallhave become known for delivering music of the highest level and their devastating live shows. With the release of four studio albums, the band has kept raising the bar, leading not only to numerous tours across Europe, but also headlining tours in Japan and China, as well as touring alongside Soilwork!

A tour that should still unite both bands in the future - With the track "Intruder" Rise To Fall have now released the first single of the upcoming album, on which none other than Björn "Speed" Strid (Soilwork / The Night Flight Orchestra ) has taken over as a guest vocalist. The track comes with a brand new music video, which you can watch here:

Rise to Fall on "Intruder":

“Upon returning from our Japan tour with Soilwork in November 2019 we set out to write the new album. In early 2020 we had already composed the track for Intruder and we talked to Björn from Soilwork to offer him a collaboration. Intruder is the first song we recorded from the new album, in which Dann also participated for the first time in the composition and in which our producer and friend Pedro J Monge (Vhäldemar) also appears as a guest doing the guitar solo. It is a very complete song, in which the melodic voices and screams of Dalay and Björn are interspersed, making the song super epic.”

So be prepared for the next chapter of Rise To Fall, once again setting their very own benchmarks! The Fifth Dimension will be coming out on June 9th and is now available for pre-order at THIS LOCATION

Alain „Dalay Tarda“ Gutiérrez - Vocals

Fast cars and even faster guitars are what you get on OBSCURA's new music video off their upcoming studio album A Valediction! Only one more month to go before the band's 6th studio album will see the light of day on November 19th, and virtuosic frontman Steffen Kummerer and his renowned bandmates unveil yet another new song from their upcoming chef-d'euvre. As one of the more melodic tracks on the album, "When Stars Collide" even features a striking clean vocal guest performance by their label mate Björn "Speed" Strid besides the band's unpreceded polyrhythms and solos.

The music video was once again produced by director Mirko Witzki and does not only offer the possibility to witness the outstanding talent of the musicians during the performance, but also some visual pleasure for car nerds.

Steffen Kummerer comments: "One of the highlights and contested compositions of 'A Valediction' features Björn Strid of our label mates SOILWORK. 'When Stars Collide' recombines an uplifting pace with a rather dark and bitter narrative that leads into to a story for reflection. A sense of delight and feeling of relief covers all mournful misery."

Watch "When Stars Collide" below

The song is featured on A Valediction that will be available on CD, vinyl, and digitally on November 19th via Nuclear Blast. Pre-order or pre-save it here: https://bfan.link/Obscura
