MEMOIRA Signs With NIGHTMARE RECORDS

May 27, 2008

Nightmare Records has announced the signing of MEMOIRA, a young female-fronted Finnish band playing what the label calls "epic melancholic metal that has progressive and gothic orchestral parts." According to Nightmare, MEMOIRA carries on "in the fashon of bands such as NIGHTWISH, EPICA, KAMELOT, WITHIN TEMPTATION, EVANESCENCE and LACUNA COIL."

Formed by the group's two guitarists Jani Haanp and Marko Heurlin, MEMOIRA is known for its strong melancholic melodies and heavy guitar walls. Haanp and Heurlin gathered together a group of various musicians who had played in different bands and went to a studio late last year to begin working on MEMOIRA's first album.

Due on August 19, "Memoira" will feature the following track listing:

01. Arise
02. Experimenters Farewell
03. Haunted
04. Destiny Of Yours
05. Incurable
06. Shadow On My Name
07. Half Alive
