Issa has etched her name as a leading force in the genre, captivating audiences worldwide with her commanding vocals and enthralling melodies. With a remarkable track record of eight albums released under the prestigious Frontiers Music, ISSA consistently delivers music that strikes a chord with fans of melodic rock and AOR.

In discussing her latest musical endeavour, Issa commented: „The new album is my favourite yet, everything was recorded and written in house by Tom and James Martin. We went for a straight up 80s inspired AOR album with a few hard rockers in for good measure, think prime Bon Jovi, Richard Marx and Heart, with even a bit of synthwave in the production. Tom and James really capture the spirit of the 80s and prime melodic Rock. We were lucky to have some great guest musicians get involved, Melvin Brannon Jr, Dennis Butabi Borg, Pete Newdeck, josh Tabbie Williams Leon Winteringham, Phil o‘ Dea, and Robert Sall to name just a few amazing players.“

„Another World“ follows the global triumph of her seventh studio album, „Lights Of Japan“ where ISSA heralded a ‚rebirth‘ of her sound, seamlessly blending influences from her roots with the evolving musical landscape. Once again, the new album showcases ISSA’s versatility and artistic growth.

New Horizon New Album „Conquerors“
Featuring Vocalist Nils Molin
OUT NOW

Listen to „Conquerors“ HERE

New Horizon released their new album, „Conquerors“, an epitome of power metal finesse, on June 14th, 2024, via Frontiers Music, along with the new track „Against The Odds“, available today.

Commenting on the song, Jona Tee stated: „On January 10, 49 B.C.E., General Julius Caesar defied an ultimatum set by the Senate. If he brought his veteran armies across the Rubicon, a stream in northern Italy, the Roman Republic would plunge into civil war. This song attempts to capture the essence of that historical event.“

„Conquerors“ presents itself as a thematic anthology, delving into pivotal moments in history and the remarkable individuals who have shaped them.

Following a remarkable journey that saw vocalist Erik Grönwall joining Skid Row, New Horizon’s founder Jona Tee embarked on a mission to find a singer who could embody the essence of the band’s next chapter. His quest led him to longtime friend Nils Molin, renowned vocalist of Dynazty and Amaranthe.

Upon encountering the band’s fresh material, Molin was immediately drawn in, igniting a powerful collaboration. Reflecting on their partnership, Jona Tee shared: “ At our first sit down in the studio he said ‚If I’m going to do this, I need to be 100% involved.‘ Nils and I have been exploring the possibility of collaborating on a project for some time now. At first, I deemed it unlikely seeing as he’s got plenty on his plate already. However, I had to ask and was happily surprised that he considered it. And when we started bouncing ideas for lyrical themes the path forward appeared crystal clear. The die has been cast„.

„Conquerors“ marks New Horizon’s sophomore album, showcasing their resilience and unwavering commitment to musical excellence. Nils’s commanding vocals seamlessly intertwine with Tee’s intricate melodies, resulting in a sound that is both familiar and refreshingly innovative.

Expressing his excitement for the project, Nils remarked: „My initial reaction to getting a text from Jona, asking me to sing on the new album was: Damn, I don’t have the time. But upon hearing some of the early material he was working on and after our first couple of sessions tracking vocals, effortlessly collaborating and mapping out a plan for the album, I decided that this simply needs to be done. CONQUERORS became a tale that grew in the making and ultimately expanding into an album way beyond my expectations, brim-packed with stellar songwriting, performances and surprise elements. If you like melodic metal – you’re in for a treat.“

With „Conquerors“, New Horizon is poised to ascend further in the power metal realm. Their dedication to musical craftsmanship and adaptability solidifies their position as a rising force in the genre. As they embark on this new chapter, New Horizon is prepared to conquer new frontiers and make an enduring impact on the music scene.
