The international Melodic Heavy Metal Band Timeless Fairytale has signed a record deal with Swedish record label ViciSolum Productions.
The band’s debut album “A Story to Tell” is set for release on September 13th, 2024, and will be a feast for fans of bands such as Royal Hunt, Yngwie J. Malmsteen, Masterplan and Scorpions. A first taste will be presented with the single “New Dawn” on July 4th.
Timeless Fairytale’s guitarist and songwriter Luca Sellitto had the following to say about the signing: “First of all, on behalf of all Timeless Fairytale’s members, I’d like to thank CEO Thomas Hörnkvist and all the staff at Vicisolum Productions for their trust and investment in us. Joining such a well-established and well-rounded label is the best we could hope for. Although most of us have released a lot of albums in the past with other bands and projects, this great start of our new journey under the moniker ‘Timeless Fairytale’ ignites our enthusiasm and excitement for the future development of our music career and we look forward to a fruitful collaboration with Vicisolum Productions”.
Timeless Fairytale is founded by Danish singer Henrik Brockmann (original frontman of Royal Hunt and Evil Masquerade) and Italian guitarist & songwriter Luca Sellitto, from the band Stamina and session guitarist for Ian Parry’s Rock Emporium. The mighty lineup is completed by a killer rhythm section, consisting of Stamina’s bass player Carmine Vivo and Swedish drummer Viktor Enebjörn, from the bands Forever Still and Darknd. Timeless Fairytale’s style is the result of a tasty combination of neoclassical/power metal, symphonic metal and classic rock. This band can be considered a “dream come true” for all fans of catchy and elegant vocal melodies, classically influenced instrumental parts and majestic/bombastic arrangements.
Luca Sellitto about the album:
“When singer Henrik Brockmann (ex-Royal Hunt) and I decided to form Timeless Fairytale, we settled on creating a very melodic and energetic album, with a lot of strong and deep melodies, neoclassical/symphonic influences, virtuosic playing and slightly melancholic lyrics. ‘A Story to Tell’ leads the listener into an evocative journey through multiple facets of human experiences and feelings, by offering a very dynamic and diverse sound palette which will surely keep the attention and interest high from the first to the last note.
Henrik acts just like a storyteller. His charming and unique vocal timbre matches perfectly with the underlying ‘arabesque’ musical atmosphere that characterizes most of the tracks. The album also has a few pleasant twists here and there, but without ever losing its cohesive nature.
My songwriting pays homage to some great Melodic / Power / Neoclassical metal artists and bands from the 80’s and 90’s for sure, but without simply paraphrasing their style. We strongly believe that we have our very own identity and a modern sound as a band, and we just can’t wait to share with world what we’ve come up with”.
“A Story to Tell” will be coming out on September 13th, 2024, via ViciSolum Productions.
