After “The Legacy of Shi” and the unmissable “Here Comes the Boom”, Rise Of The Northstar picks up where they left off. Still combining modern metal, urban music, and Japanese pop culture, the quintet pushes even further. A new era starts today with the first anthem, “One Love”.
ROTN hits hard, and this single is the first uppercut of a frontal shock: “Showdown”, released on April 7th, 2023, via Atomic Fire.
“‘One Love’ is a positive song. The message is simple: keep the faith and never give up on what makes you feel alive. Never lose your basics”, says Rise Of The Northstar.
“One Love” is now available on all digital platforms. Stream it here.
With millions of streams and views, Rise Of The Northstar is a metal phenomenon. Two albums, 3 EPs (including the 2020 Live In Paris), and hits like “Demonstrating My Saiya Style”, “Here Comes the Boom”, “Sounds of Wolves,” and “Again And Again”: ROTN is an explosive sonic and visual experience. The third impact, “Showdown”, proclaims loud and clear its sole objective: to jump, headbang and mosh.
A new frontal shock that proves that, on the band’s territory and well beyond, throughout Europe, the US, and Asia, ROTN is a prescriber of heavy sounds and French groove under the banner of Shonen. Always bigger, always harder. The new album “Showdown” is mixed by Johann Meyer (Gojira) and mastered by Ted Jensen (Sterling Sound Studio).
Don’t miss the brand-new video for “One Love”, premiering on Atomic Fire’s YouTube channel on Jan 19th, to kickstart this new era and witness the new facet of the band’s Shonen universe!
The album preorder for the forthcoming album for “Showdown” starts this Friday, 20th January, here.
