Symphonic
Metal Masters
Kamelot entered the studio in mid 2014 to begin recording their follow-up to the highly acclaimed chart topping album Silverthorn. The new album will make
Kamelot history as it will be released worldwide ( excl. Asia ) on
Napalm Records/Universal and
Napalm Records/ADA-Warner as an exclusive licensing deal through the band's
Kamelot MUSIC LLC this April/May 2015. In support of this highly anticipated release,
Kamelot will hit the
Road starting in March for select UK shows, followed by a massive North America Tour this Spring, with special guests
Dragonforce (UK). Select Summer Festivals will follow and the band returns to Europe in September/October for their biggest headliner tour to date.
“We are extremely excited about having a growing and hungry independent label like
Napalm with the
Power of major distribution that we will get with Universal and ADA Warner.” states
Kamelot founder and guitarist Thomas Youngblood
Thomas Caser,
Vice President of
Napalm Records:
“Being a fan of the band since the band's
Epica release it
HAS always been a dream for me to work with KAMELOT! Finally this dream came
True and we at
Napalm Records are delighted and honoured to announce this signing. I foresee a bright future and we will spare no efforts to bring the band to where it deserves – the top! Watch out for the band's monumental new album this spring and witness
Kamelot &
Napalm Records conquering the world in 2015!”
Kamelot have held their own, very special position in the world of rock and heavy music: their elaborate melodic
Metal HAS always opened itself in a remarkably clever way to like-minded styles, integrating progressive elements as well as cross-references to doom/gothic
Metal and classical music, which have allowed their songs to define their own genre.
Two of their most successful releases in particular, namely the albums
Karma (2001) and
The Black Halo (2005), are prime examples of KAMELOT's multi-layered approach, intensity and outstanding musicality. Their last effort Silverthorn,
Saw the band raise this demanding standard even higher, because the album stands the
Test Of Time as a
True Masterpiece of grand gestures, gritty melodies and haunting atmospheres, showcasing
Kamelot at their finest.
