IGNITED - "Steelbound"

In January of 2017 the musicians Dalton Castro and Maurício Velasco decided to create Ignited,
a band with the proposal to play energetic heavy metal with great melodies. To complete the
lineup, they invited Denis Lima and Sama Benedet, and together finished the first songs which
would become a EP to introduce them to the music scene, but with new ideas flowing it
naturally became something bigger and they decided it was time to start the pre-production of
a full-length.
Between Abril and August of 2019 the band went to Estúdio Fusão, a studio owned by Thiago
Bianchi (ex-Shaman, Noturnall), to record “Steelbound”, and having Thiago responsible for the
production, mixing and mastering. For the artwork they partnered with Gustavo Sazes, a
veteran Brazilian artist who previously worked with names like Manowar, Arch Enemy and
Morbid Angel.
In its lyrics, "Steelbound" addresses different subjects and experiences that are brought to the
listener through metaphors, seeking an authentic connection with the fans, giving them the
opportunity to make their own personal interpretations of each song.
Ignited’s debut album delivers energetic and catchy melodies to make fans bang their heads,
with a sonority described by critics as “inspired by traditional heavy metal, but with identity
and modern approach”.
After making it available on digital platforms and release a video and a lyric video, the band
signed a deal with Voice Music to make a physical release of the album in Brazil in June of
2020. According to Silvio Golfetti (Korzus), the label’s owner: “Ignited has a captivating sound,
with a lot of weight and technique. Made for those who love the best and purest heavy
metal!”.
