Hail Metalheads, this is Chris from Arkeyn Steel Records, bombing you with more news. After a six months absence, even though on backstage there was a heavy load of work, the news for Arkeyn Steel Records is great! As you all may know, two months ago the fifth CD of the company (Dead Calm) was released. It took really stunning reviews by the press and webzines and positive feedbacks by the audience. A live proof is that in these two months the 1/3 of CDs is already sold.
The next two releases arrive at company’s offices in 10th of December, limited in 1000 copies CDs and ready for sale on the same day! We’re talking about Omega Point and False Witness. The fans of Queensryche, Lethal, Sacred Warrior and Mystic Force have to invest in Omega Point and the fans of Agent Steel, Sanctuary and Exciter in False Witness but generally all the fans of old US power metal would do the best x-mas gift for themselves by getting these CDs.

Out December 10th:

OMEGA POINT: INFINITE RHYME -USA, Maryland/Baltimore- (Great ala Queensryche, Lethal, Sacred Warrior melodic power/prog. Mini CD with 5 tracks-25′ min. These tracks are from one and only demo 1991, full digital remastered and new artworx, also include detailed bio and unreleased pics!)

FALSE WITNESS: CRESTFALLEN KING -Canada- (Fantastic Power/Speed ala early Agent Steel, Exciter, Sanctuary. CD with 11 tracks-53′ min. Includes the first demo 1991 with 4 tracks, one track demo 1993, 3 tracks demo 1995 and very first demo 1989 (never released until now) with 3 tracks full digital remastered and new artworx, also include detailed bio and pics!)

Both releases limited 1000 handnumbered CDs.

What follows next, is a release of Longings Past, An Angel’s Tale in the end of January - early Feb ’09 with full digital remaster by the band’s leader J. Shellberg! But nothing stops the flow! Other two bands have signed and belong already to Arkeyn Steel’s roster that the fans who do not know them will absolutely love them.
The first band is Commandment from Chicago, Illinois, U.S.A. with the album “Engraved In Stone”, which was recorded in 1988 and except for the only 7’’ that they released as album’s forerunner, it remained in obscurity! In 1999, O.P.M. released it in limited 500 LP copies and today is really an expensive item for the collectors. In the April of ’09 Arkeyn Steel Records is gonna send round in market 1000 limited CD copies in full digital remaster, with a totally new cover and artwork, unreleased pics and detailed bio. Whoever is a follower of Liege Lord, Slauter Xstroyes, Helstar and Oliver Magnum would appreciate this album by far!!
The second band comes from Baltimore, Maryland, U.S.A. and once again is a wasted one. They are Reignstorm, who apart from various demos during a period of ten years (1989-99), they never managed to have anything official. So, Arkeyn Steel Records comes to take and release in June ’09 all the demos in 1000 limited CD copies also with full digital remaster, totally new cover and artwork, unreleased pics and detailed bio. On drums appears the huge Chris Lembach (ex-Mystic Force), while as leader, singer and the basic composer in music and lyrics is his brother Jarrett Lembach. Anyone who owns a collection with Lizzy Borden, Mystic Force and Fates Warning (Old era), should definitely get this missing gem!
