SCARLET RAYNE - Theater Humanitarian
Limited Edition 2000 Handnumbered CDs (ASR CD-001)

From Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA, Scarlet Rayne has released a magnificent private piece of Power / Prog Metal –ala early Queensryche-. Focused in melody and enforced with apocalyptic but still catchy guitar themes and crystal clear vocals this is for sure NOT to be missed. Brilliant compositions, Christian lyrics. In its original form this is one of the rarest private pressings of the 90s. Available again on CD fully re-mastered, new artwork, complete lyrics, unreleased photos plus an in depth biography. Vinyl edition limited to 500 copies. Both editions will feature 4 never released before bonus tracks.

ENCHANTER – Defenders Of the Realm
Limited Edition 1000 Handnumbered CDs (ASR CD-002)

From Jackson, Michigan, USA, Enchanter released back in 1988 one jewel of US Epic / Power Metal. Defenders Of The Realm was the beginning of their saga that consisted of two more releases: Time Gone Past Nevermore (1989) and Ethereal Quarter (1990). From Power Metal pounding attacks to Epic Metal mysterious anthems this band carried a unique spirit. This release is a compendium of every piece of music ever released by Enchanter. Completely re mixed in USA by the main man / guitarist James Shellberg himself (former of the glorious Longings Past). Available in strictly limited vinyl edition of 500 (100 white colored 400 black colored), plus a limited CD edition of 1000 featuring unreleased photos and complete biography. This is your first -and last- chance to grab this mystic treasure of Steel. NO re–pressings!

MANIFEST - Find A New Place
Limited Edition 1000 Handnumbered CDs (ASR CD-003)

Bobby Hicks joined this Baltimore, Maryland, US based band on 1994, one year after his leaving from the Gods Mystic Force. In 1995 they originally released the tape “Yes Or No” in 1000 copies with CD edition to follow in another 1000 copies some months later. Both editions sold out very quickly and this treasure remained buried into dust until today. Moreover the band split in 1999 and their signs were completely lost until Arkeyn Steel brings them back in the light of the day. Do not miss the chance to grab this anthem that will be re pressed for last time on 1000 hand numbered CDs. As bonus on the 6 tracks included in the original there are 2 pre-production rehearsal tracks from 1998, so we got 8 tracks in total and more than 45 minutes of melodic, Power / Prog Steel in the vein of Mystic Force / Queensryche / Lethal / Sacred Warrior. It comes digitally mastered from the original master tapes, in completely new artwork by Kostas Athanasoglou plus booklet with lyrics, unreleased photo and info as well. This is THE must for all the fans of the bands mentioned and everyone into high quality, shinning US Steel.

Arkeyn Steel Records

Proudly presents another release of fine Power / Prog Metal:
DEAD CALM “No Way Out”
(Limited Edition 1000 Hand numbered CDs)

Dead Calm from Ottawa, Canada released back in 1991 a limited -in 1000 copies only- LP tape called “No Way Out” including 9 tracks of magnificent Power / Prog Metal in the vein of old Queensryche / Lethal / Hittman. The musical trademarks of Dead Calm are with no doubt the unbelievable vocals (ala Tate / Malicoat), the powerful riffing and the brilliant guitar leads that are enforcing their music with a special touch of strange and beautiful steel.

The original multi-track master tapes have been lost forever as they were destroyed by a fire on the band’s studio. Fortunately the one and ONLY stereo master tape that was used by the band back in 1991 to duplicate the album was saved and was digitally transferred into CD on one of Canada’s finest studios. The digital product was re-mastered from the scratch by Arkeyn Steel Records mastering main man Mr. Kostas Scandalis at Infinity Studios.

43 minutes of complex, catchy and melodic steel touch by the magic Canadian Metal spirit. Presented under completely new artwork –by Kostas Athanasoglou-, full lyrics and inner notes. Finally this album is released the way it deserved. Here we got an unbelievable musical experience for sure not to be missed.

Tracklist:
1. Thief In The Night 5:50
2. Journey's End 6:43
3. Chemical Warfare 3:29
4. Love Or War 4:19
5. Mary's Black Sun 5:09
6. First Step 4:09
7. Holding On 4:56
8. Mother Earth 3:23
9. No Way Out 2:57

When will Dead Calm - No Way Out CD be released?

I'd like to purchase this CD along with the First Longings Past CD together.

I have to say I am quite enjoying the reissues made by this label.

Out of all of them Enchanter does not grab me as immediately as the others. However I have only spun it the once so far so it may grow.
