POWERFUL SYMPHONIC DOUBLE

Xandria and Sirenia will come to Pratteln on November 24 for a co-headliner show. The reformed icons of German symphonic metal have cracked the top ten of the charts for the first time with the album "The Wonders Still Awaiting." The Norwegian symphonic metal & synth-pop band reveals more versatility than ever on their latest work, "1977."

Xandria: The icons of German symphonic metal, founded in 1994 in Bielefeld, are writing a new chapter. In February 2023, they released their eighth album, "The Wonders Still Awaiting," after a six-year wait since "Theater Of Dimensions." Mastermind Marco Heubaum leads the completely renewed band into new spheres while staying true to their trademarks. The new frontwoman, Ambre Vourvahis, brings fresh energy with her vocal versatility from soprano to growls. The 13 tracks are complex and epic, a balanced mix of hard metallic sounds and symphonic instrumentation. The album reached number 9 in Germany and number 11 in the Swiss charts. In spring 2024, Xandria will release the single "Universal," inspired by the positive feedback from their fans. The track mixed by Jacob Hansen whets the appetite for more.

Sirenia: After over 20 years of band history, Sirenia surprises with a fresh sound while remaining true to their roots. With their eleventh studio album "1977," they prove in 2023 that they belong to the top of the genre. The quintet led by Morten Veland combines late 70's and 80's pop/rock with synthwave elements and a hard symphonic sound. "1977" merges these components into a unique combination. The bonus track "Twist In My Sobriety," a cover of the song by Tanita Tikaram, highlights their versatility and provides an exciting time travel, harmonizing with Emmanuelle Zoldan's deep vocals.
