14.12.2015 - INNERWISH: NEW ALBUM ANNOUNCED
The Greek melodic metallers INNERWISH will release their new album entitled "InnerWish" on March 18, 2016 in Europe and North America via Ulterium Records. The artwork of the album was created by Felipe Machado Franco [Blind Guardian, Rhapsody Of Fire, Xandria] and the design was done by Jan Yrlund [Korpiklaani, Apocalyptica, Manowar].

The band comments on the new album:
"This is the first album with our new lineup, and we hope this lineup will be unchanged for many years since we now feel stronger, more confident and sure about ourselves than ever before. For those reasons we chosed 'InnerWish' as the title of our new album, because it represents us in the most exact way. We are very proud of this album. It might sound very common, but it's the truth for us: this is the best InnerWish album so far! Heavy, aggressive, modern, melodic and diverse at the same time, with all the classical InnerWish elements, combined with some new ones. It might have been 6 years since the release of 'No turning back' but all the difficult times we've been through made us stronger and the result is this new, fifth album of InnerWish. We are back for good!"

More details about the album will be announced early next year.

The melodic metal band Signum Regis will release their new album entitled "Chapter IV: The Reckoning" on November 20th in Europe and North America through Ulterium Records.

“It was the plan since get go, to make our best album so far. After releasing the EP earlier this year, it was clear that the bar was set pretty high. We worked very hard and we believe that we managed to lift the bar even higher in every aspect. Some of the songs on the album will become the classics of Signum Regis, that's for sure. There will be 10 new songs on the album, none of them appeared on the EP, which makes both the album and the "Through The Storm EP" a good buy for the fans.”

07.08.2015 - INNERWISH: IN STUDIO RECORDING NEW ALBUM
The greek melodic metallers INNERWISH entered the studio on the 5th of August and began recording their fifth studio album, for an early 2016 release through Ulterium Records.

Drums are being tracked at Devasoundz Studios (of SEPTIC FLESH fame) in Athens, Greece, with Fotis Benardo (ex- SEPTIC FLESH drummer and current SIXFORNINE vocalist) handling the recordings.

The as-yet-untitled new album, is the first with the two newest members of the band, George Eikosipentakis on vocals and Fragiskos Samoilis on drums.

Regarding the musical direction of the new material, the band stated: “This time things worked a bit differently, still maintaining the basic core. New members, fresh ideas were blended to our music characteristics and we believe this is the more diverse album we have ever created. Yet powerful, melodic, heavy, lyrical and full of energy. All the INNERWISH elements are still here, but expanded in a way that came naturally through this long and difficult period, during which we were composing and trying to guarantee the best possible result. In the end though, we are proud with these new songs, the sound of INNERWISH of today and feel confident that you will love them too! Let’s roll the dice again”.
Songtitles set to appear on the album include “Broken”, “Zero Ground”, “Through My Eyes”, “Serenity”, “Roll The Dice” and “The Sins Of The Past”.

INNERWISH’s latest album, “No Turning Back”, was released in May 2010 via Ulterium Records.

16.07.2014 - THEOCRACY: NEW DRUMMER ANNOUNCED
Georgia-based melodic metal band Theocracy is excited to announce the addition of drummer Patrick Nickell to the lineup. Patrick is originally from Nashville, TN, and brings 13 years of drumming experience to the band. His power and progressive metal background is a perfect fit for Theocracy, and the band is thrilled to see where this new musical union leads them.

Theocracy first met Patrick several years ago when he was a member of Nashville's Oblivion Myth, and when the time came to begin searching for a new drummer, he was one of the first candidates they auditioned. It was immediately apparent to everyone that he was the perfect fit, both musically and personally. He has the skills to faithfully excecute all of the older material, while bringing his own brand of power, finesse and flair.

To offer the fans a small glimpse of what he can do, the band recorded a live in-studio performance of the As the World Bleeds track "Nailed", which can be seen below. Theocracy's first live performance with Patrick will be a private show for the Make-A-Wish Foundation in late August, followed by Midweek Mayhem at the prestigious ProgPower USA festival in Atlanta, GA, September 10.

12.07.2012 - THEOCRACY: DEBUT ALBUM TO BE RE-RELEASED
The debut album from the Athens, Georgia-based melodic metal band THEOCRACY will be re-released through Ulterium Records. The album was originally released through Metal Ages Records in 2003, and is nowadays very rare and hard to find. No release date is set for the re-release yet, but more information and updates will follow.

Theocracy vocalist Matt Smith comments on the re-release;
"A lot of people ask us how to get the debut Theocracy album, which is long out of print. Well, you won't have to wait much longer, because it's going to be re-released through Ulterium Records! We went through a lot of discussion about how much we wanted to rework it: Do we re-record the whole thing with the new lineup? Do we just release it as-is? There were a lot of ways we could go, but ultimately we decided that people love that album and it's a snapshot in time, so we didn't want to completely redo something people are attached to. We'd rather present the best-sounding version we can of what's already there, with one change that seemingly everyone wants to hear: real drums! Shawn's going to record drums to the tracks that are already there, and then I'm going to remix it, so it should be killer.

Right now I'm going through the tracks and trying to get everything organized and usable (some of those recordings were really bad!), and soon we'll be ready for Shawn to lay down the drum tracks. Keep checking in, and we'll keep you posted as it unfolds!"

The latest Theocracy album "As The World Bleeds" was released in Europe on November 25th through Ulterium Records, in North America on November 21st through Nightmare Records and in Japan on April 25th through King Records.

"As The World Bleeds" debuted at #40 in the Billboard Heatseekers Chart during the first week of release.

30.09.2009 - ULTERIUM RECORDS SEPTEMBER/OCTOBER UPDATE
It's time for an update from the Ulterium Records camp!

We're currently putting the finishing touches to an up-coming release that we hope to release this December. It's a limited edition picture disc release with a legendary band. We're really thrilled about this, and we hope to have some official news for you soon!

Theocracy, Darkwater and Harmony are preparing to enter the studio later this year, and should all have new releases out during 2010. Sinbreed is also in studio right now recording at full speed, and their debut album will be released early 2010. During the coming months we'll also bring you news regarding some new re-releases that we're very excited about.

We are also currently talking to some very interesting bands about possible co-operations, so it looks like 2010 will be a year with many high-quality releases from us.

Thank you all for your support, we'll be back soon with more news!

25.09.2009 - DARKWATER UPDATE
Darkwater have issued the following update:
We´ve understood that a lot of people are curious and would like an update on what is going on with Darkwater at the moment. It´s now been a while since we released our first album and we quite recently parted with our bass player. So what is really happening in the dark waters?

Regarding the bass player spot, we have auditioned several people but still haven´t found exactly what we are looking for. We will keep looking until we find the perfect match. In the meantime we will use Simon Andersson (ex-Pain of Salvation) as a session player. He is an amazing bass player with lots of experience, and a better substitute would probably be impossible to find.

And what is happening with the new album? For quite some time we´ve gone through all the music we´ve had laying around, re-written a lot of it and written a bunch of new songs. So right now we have far too many songs to put on one album, or even ten albums. But we are doing our best to choose the most fitting songs for this up-coming album. We still have a lot of lyrics to write and also some melodies, but we are planning to head into the recording studios later this year. So some time next year there will be a new Darkwater album out for you to enjoy.

Thank for your support, and patience!

// Henrik, Markus, Tobias, Magnus
