Brazil's SCELERATA Signs With MTM MUSIC

January 19, 2007

MTM Music has announced the signing of Brazilian melodic metal band SCELERATA.

According to a press release, SCELERATA is "a young and talented band from Brasil, now stepping into the scene with a very technical and powerful melodic metal debut album. Formed in 2003, they had no great interest in doing cover songs but immediately began writing their own songs. Heavy and also a bit progressive in style they wrote powerful metal tracks and began to elaborate them to sophisticated songs with high energy and beats that keep pushing forward. Influenced by metal heroes like HELLOWEEN, IRON MAIDEN and DREAM THEATER, SCELERATA's songs represent the new era of modern and melodic but at the same time classic heavy metal music. Ambitious guitar work, fast and aggressive double bass parts and pretentious melodies supported by Carl Casagrande's brilliant voice. Also live SCELERATA already gained some respect while standing on same stages with giants like DEEP PURPLE and ANGRA. One of their biggest supporters, Edu Falaschi, singer of ANGRA, is featured on SCELERATA's debut, 'Darkness and Light', singing the song 'Spell Of Time'."

"Darkness and Light" was recorded in Brazil last year and was mastered by Dennis Ward at House of Audio Studios in Germany.

01. Land of the Sins
