The
Heavy Metal band INNER AXIS starts into spring 2021 with two brand new
power-driven tracks, which will be released each as a digital single as
well as double-feature CD and 12” Vinyl-Maxi. Both songs were produced
at the PITCHBLACK STUDIOS and deliver a perfect genre sound, noticeably
enhanced by new band member and guitarist Nino Helfrich (also IRON
ANGEL) and Annihilator bass player Rich Gray, who contributes with his
skills on both tracks. Also, regarding the artwork, the band does not
make any compromise by hiring specialist Jan Yrlund, who also worked for
Manowar, Apocalyptica, Battle Beast, Bon Jovi und Korpiklaani before.
The
first single is called “Midnight Hunter” and will be released with an
instrumental b-side on April, 9th together with a music video. Some
additional video specials are also due for release in the following days
and weeks. “Midnight Hunter” demonstrates the band’s capabilities to
create and perform powerful, epic as well as catchy songs in the spirit
of classic 80s metal, which is also emphasized by the cover artwork
design and visual presentation of the music video. In addition to this,
female bass player Melissa Cavo is featured on the performance shots of
this video.
The
second single “Steelbladed Avenger”, to be released on May, 14th incl.
an instrumental b-side, the band goes full throttle with another epic
and catchy metal hymn. Even more developed in terms of sound and
composition, these two new singles set a new level in the band's musical
career. Regarding the music video they joined forces with director Alex
Popov, who also was responsible for the special effects of the Oscar
nominated movie TWO DISTANT STRANGERS as well as director Danny McBride
(producer and writer for UNDERWORLD). The team produced the short movie
FALLEN ANGEL, which was combined with INNER AXIS’ performance shots
creating the perfect “Steelbladed Avenger” music clip.
The
movie and clip also feature actress Ellen Hollmann (the Steelbladed
Avenger), who recently finished her part in The Matrix 4 and worked on
projects such as Criminal Minds, Spartacus, CSI:Las Vegas, Scorpion King
4, Lethal Weapon: Series, NCIS: New Orleans. Additional performers
include Steven Dunlevy (Mad Max: Fury Road, John Wick 2, Logan: the
wolverine, Fast & Furious: Hobbs & Shaw), Scott Mcelroy
(Reservoir Dogs, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Underworld…stunts für Pulp
Fiction) and Anthony De Longis (Master of the Universe, Star Trek
Voyager, Highlander:Series, Batman Returns).
After
the release of the two digital singles, the limited-edition digifile
CD, incl. both tracks + instrumentals will be available on June, 11th
and finally the 12” vinyl maxi will hit the shops on august, 27th.
