With the incredible new vocal sensation Ambre Vourvahis, whose astonishing range spans from rock to operatic vocals, even embracing powerful screams and growls, Xandria has taken their sound to a whole new level.

Their epic comeback masterpiece, "The Wonders Still Awaiting," delivers an unprecedented sonic experience, elevating the band to the very top tier of the scene. With its fresh, cutting-edge sound and cinematic arrangements, the album has set new standards for the modern Symphonic Metal genre. The overwhelming success confirms this: Top 10 in Germany’s album charts, #4 in the UK Rock & Metal charts, and more worldwide chart entries mark the band's biggest achievements to date—building upon their legacy of classics like "Ravenheart," "Valentine," and "Nightfall."

In 2024, Xandria followed up with their "Universal Tales" EP, which was widely praised by critics. Featuring four new songs, the EP expands the band's sonic horizons: "No Time to Live Forever" stands as a powerful Symphonic anthem about civilization´s ongoing struggle against authoritarian forces, while "Universal" delivers an orchestral masterpiece dedicated to Jina Mahsa Amini and the fight for freedom. "200 Years" explores Celtic-inspired soundscapes, featuring violinist Ally Storch of Subway to Sally, and "Live the Tale" is a call to embrace the positive side of human potential. The EP also includes a stripped-down acoustic rendition of the title track "The Wonders Still Awaiting", showcasing the band's remarkable ability to reinvent their sound.

And now, Xandria is bringing their magic to the world’s stages—epic, bombastic Symphonic Metal at its finest! With cinematic orchestrations and immersive atmospheres, they transport the audience into an imaginary movie, bringing stories to life with captivating passion. Their phenomenal vocalist Ambre Vourvahis will set the stage ablaze with her breathtaking range and stylistic versatility—an experience you simply cannot miss!

Crypta is a Brazilian female Death Metal band, recognized worldwide. It was founded in 2019 by Fernanda Lira (bass and vocals) and Luana Dametto (drums). Currently, Crypta continues as a trio, with guest guitarists (on second guitar) for tours.
Alongside guitarist Tainá Bergamaschi, invited to join the band in 2020, Crypta consolidated its line-up and released, in 2021, the acclaimed debut album “Echoes of the Soul”, released by the Austrian label Na**lm Records. The album reached relevant positions in international charts, such as Germany and Switzerland, and drew attention for its sound and visual work – with production by names such as Arthur Rizk, Jens Bogren and cover art by Wes Benscoter.

The second album, “Shades of Sorrow”, released in 2023, reaffirmed the band's prominence on the global scene. In addition to entering significant charts in the United States, Europe and Latin America, the album was among the 50 best albums of 2023, according to the São Paulo Association of Art Critics (APCA).

With the album, Crypta also debuted on the US Billboard, something rarely achieved by Brazilian metal bands. The band was on 7 charts in the US, 6 in Canada, 2 in England, and also in Switzerland, Germany and Austria.

Having played at major festivals such as Wacken Open Air (Germany), Rock in Rio (Brazil), Bloodstock (England) and Primavera Sound (Brazil), and toured and performed alongside legends such as Morbid Angel, Carcass, Behemoth, Ghost, Arch Enemy and Hatebreed, the band has performed in dozens of countries in the Americas and Europe.

In 2025, the band will continue on the road with new tours already confirmed in Latin America, Europe, the United States, Canada and Brazil, while preparing their third album, scheduled for 2026.

Acres process universal struggles, raw emotion, and life’s trials and tribulations through an unpredictable and undeniable hybrid of insurgently catchy melodies, neck-breaking grooves, and disarmingly seductive soundscapes. Audiences initially fell under the UK band’s spell in 2019 when they unveiled the fan favorite Lonely World. After grinding on the road, they made significant strides with 2023’s Burning Throne. “My Everything” reeled in 2.6 million Spotify streams followed by “Hold On” with another 2 million Spotify streams. KERRANG! applauded how, “Acres display their potential with some big choruses to match,” and WHEN THE HORN BLOWS hailed Burning Throne as “a classic metalcore album filled with swinging hooks, rough riffs, popping electronic elements and lovely vocals that turn into monster screams.” In 2025, the rapidly rising quartet—Ben Lumber, Alex Freeman, Jack Rogers, Ash Scott—rally around a spirit of sonic evolution on their third full-length album, The Host [Solid State]. Working with The Plot In You frontman Landon Tewers behind the board as producer, the band creatively level up as they deliver a caustic, catchy, and conceptual body of work primed to provoke thought and feeling in equal measure. This era begins with the single “Bloodlust” and much more to come.

Road-worn, hook-laden and unapologetically loud, channel the raw pulse of heavy rock ’n’ roll into something immediate and communal. Sweat on the walls. Smiles in the crowd. Riffs that feel like old friends, and they’re part of the bumper Love Noise Freedom Festival line-up this September.
