KINGDOM OF TYRANTS "Architects of Power"

by Metal On Metal Records

supported by

Endless Metal Podcast Mike Munro is one of the most underrated in metal. His singular voice made Meliah Rage’s “Kill to Survive” a lasting favorite in my collection. Nearly 40 years later, Munro’s mastery is on full display on this record. Coupled with the legendary Steel Assassin NWOBHM song craft and fantastic lyrical themes of fallen soldiers, epic stories of the Gilded Age, and Poe’s classic story, Kingdom of Tyrants exceed all my expectations. “Architects of Power” is massive epic metal of the highest order. Favorite track: Ghosts of Industry.

pizz67 this stuff is so fucking cool! I wanna have it on all cool festivals…

Power/Heavy Metal from USA

Out of the Boston area rises a new metal beast ready to take on the world. But its musical ancestry is neck-deep - it comprises the STEEL ASSASSIN guitar duo of Kevin Curran and Michael Mooney who teamed up with other veterans of the local '80s metal scene: the original MELIAH RAGE vocalist Mike Munro and drummer Stuart Dowie. Drawing heavily on the mythology and history of mankind, their debut album brings their take on classic heavy metal mixed with a dose US power. This masterwork shows a wide breadth of distinct, remarkable and consistently heavy songs with driving rhythms, catchy melodies and plenty of hooks. The rhythm section represents a bombast of anger and furious beauty, the riffs are massive and the inspired leads exude pure talent and class. Atop of this foundation, Munro's powerful bellow evokes the alpha wolf lusting after the thrill of the hunt. The excellence and confidence expected from such seasoned musicians is complemented by superb production. The band remains grounded in the footprints of masters like METAL CHURCH, SAVATAGE, ACCEPT, JUDAS PRIEST, ARMORED SAINT or HERETIC, but doesn't sound exactly like any of them, having already forged their own personal style.

The idea to start a record label was born in late 2007 and brought to life in 2008.
We value quality over quantity, so there are usually only 7 CD releases every year and a compilation, "Compendium Of Metal".
