Modern melodic shooting stars Metalite are working on new material for their highly anticipated third album, which will be released in 2021.
But before, the band has a another special treat for its fans: The new single ‘We Bring You The Stars’ is available on all digital platforms now. It’s a previously unreleased song which was recorded during the “Biomechanicals“ sessions.
Metalite guitarist Edwin Premberg comments:
”To give our fans a little surprise in these hard times we release this previously recorded and unreleased song ”We Bring You The Stars”. A very melodic, epic, uptempo and pop-influenced in-your-face song that really shows our fans what Metalite is all about. Memorable melodies that really get glued to your mind, the upfront vocals, battling double kicks and soaring guitars. This is a adrenaline injection in a positive way that everybody needs in these dark times. To prepare you all for our upcoming new releases this year and our third album next year, we bring you the stars.”

The future is close: And she looks pretty overwhelming. Two years after their exciting debut „Heroes In Time“, the Swedish Melodic Metal renewers Metalite return with a new singer and a giant stroke. This band could be the new heroes of Modern Metal – trendsetting, epic and of highest quality. Of course, we have been knowing for long that the Swedish do have a hand for successful Metal. But an album with the quality of „Biomechanicals“ is even for this country a rarity. Influenced by the concept of bands like Within Temptation, the quintet from Stockholm reinvents classic Melodic Metal – and unleashes a storm of power, monumentality and zeitgeist, that you cannot escape. „Biomechanicals“ continues the high level from their debut and turns everything to 11, what stood on 10 before: A richer production, stronger songwriting and an elusive and mysterious aura distinguishes „Biomechanicals“ from everything you already know about Melodic Metal.
With Metalite’s expertly use of electronic elements, influenced by the Trance Era of early 21st century, sphaeric layers mix with flirring sequences and stoic beats fit like a second skin for the massive, melodic and outrageous catchy soundwall. But also the new singer Erica Ohlsson shapes that energetic sound.
Metalite‘s AFM debut is a futuristic glimmering garment made of Melodic and Symphonic Metal that differentiates lyrically from the rivalry. „We surround ourselves already that naturally with all these technological gadgets that we do not recognize anymore how they observate us“, so the guitarist about the contemporary and unsettling content of the album.
A flaming fire in their bellies, sparked off by another high-end production of Jacob Hansen (Volbeat, Amaranthe), Metalite are more than ready for their next step. It could be a very big one.
“Biomechanicals” has been released on Oct. 25th. 2019 via AFM Records.
