ADD LINK! The Italian Hard Rock band EDGE OF FOREVER will release a new album entitled 'Ritual' on October 13, 2023 via FRONTIERS Records.The new line-up - consisting of Aldo Lonobile (Secret Sphere, Sweet Oblivion) on guitars, Nik Mazzucconi (Labyrinth, Sunstorm) on bass, and Marco Di Salvia (Hardline) on drums,
and rounded up by singer, keyboardist, and founder Alessandro Del Vecchio (Hardline, Jorn, Revolution Saints) - has become a true force of nature after the numerous tours and headlining shows that brought the band to successfully open for the likes of Skid Row (Belgium, The Netherlands), FM (Italy, Switzerland, Germany), Eclipse (UK), Mike Tramp (Spain) and many more. They brought their music to thousands of people and multiple stages across Europe in the 16 months and 30 plus concerts supporting "Seminole".
"Ritual" tells the story of the last two indigenous people speaking a language soon to be forgotten. The twins, a boy and a girl, were sent to two different Residential Schools and were told that there was no one else left from their nation and they needed to forget everything they might remember from it, either language or culture. Secretly, they continue practicing their idiom, hoping to escape and find their twin somewhere in the world. The boy ends up escaping school and starts a lifelong journey which leads him to meeting his sister on his bed of death. The album tells a story of pride, strength, pain, but also ultimate joy and fulfillment in being who you truly and deeply are.
"Ritual" sees the Edge of Forever writing and working as a full unit bringing new elements where melody, power, depth and heaviness all meet together in an album that makes Edge Of Forever a unique case in today’s musical environment.
