STORMLORD Confirmed For Tunisia's 2J ROCK Festival

October 20, 2008

Italian extreme epic metal act STORMLORD will headline the second day of 2J Rock festival, which is set to take place November 1-2 at Centre Culturel et Sportif des Jeunes Menzah 6 in Tunisia.

Commented the band: "Is such an honor and a huge satisfaction for us to sail toward the Tunisian shores. We've been enjoying a great feedback from the north of Africa since many years and now we're so amazed to have the chance to play in front of some loyal fans that have been waiting for us since forever. What we like the most is that we're gonna play near the ancient city of Carthago, whose history was one of the main influences during the writing of the new album 'Mare Nostrum' concept; we can't imagine a better place where to bring our Mediterranean extreme epic metal. We guess that this show was written in our destiny. So, we just can't wait to jump on the stage of 2J Rock, and to all of our fans from Tunisia we wanna say: you'll need just a little patience more, the time it's almost come. Get ready for one of the most brilliant and intense STORMLORD shows ever. This is a promise!"

"Neon Karma", the new video from STORMLORD, can be viewed below. The song comes off the group's fourth full-length album, "Mare Nostrum", which was released on May 23 via Locomotive Records. The CD was recorded at Giuseppe Orlando's Outer Sound Studios (NECRODEATH, NOVEMBRE, KLIMT 1918) and was mastered at Finnvox Studios by Mika Jussila (HIM, CHILDREN OF BODOM, NIGHTWISH, SENTENCED).

"The Legacy – 17 Years of Extreme Epic Metal", a double "best-of" collection from STORMLORD, was released on February 22, 2007 through Scarlet Records. The first CD contains 13 songs spanning the band's 17-year career as of one of Europe's most respected metal merchants, including the rare EP "Under the Sign of the Sword", originally released in 1997. The second CD contains a full live show recorded in Montreal on June 14, 2006 during the band's Canadian tour.

Scarlet Records released STORMLORD's first official DVD, "The Battle of Quebec City: Live in Canada", in July 2007 in Europe.
