VIOLET SUN Debut Due In November

October 25, 2010

"Loneliness In Supremacy", the debut album from VIOLET SUN, the Italian symphonic melodic metal band led by PLATENS/ex-THY MAJESTIE vocalist Dario Grillo, will be released on November 19 via MelodicRock Records. The CD comes with 12 powerful tracks and a deluxe 16-page booklet featuring the outstanding artwork of Ciao Caldas.

Commented MelodicRock Records owner Andrew McNeice: "There is nothing harder in this scene than breaking in a new name, but just as my other signings have impressed, so to did VIOLET SUN. One listen and I called upon Dario to sign up. I wasn't looking for a heavier project to add to the label, but taking each release on its merits, this just screamed out for attention. The production is simply world class. Intense themes, immense arrangements and the power and emotion of the material appealed to me instantly. I am very happy to have such a strong group of artists involved in the label and VIOLET SUN only enhances that."
