The day has finally come for German symphonic metal icons, Xandria, to dive into a new adventure and prepare for the next promising chapter in the band's history. After entering the German album charts at #17 with Theater Of Dimensions in 2017, Xandria mark a steadfast return today with more exciting facets than ever on their new single, appropriately entitled “Reborn”.
Active since the early 90s, the band introduces this eagerly anticipated sign of life, featuring the dynamic range of new vocalist Ambre Vourvahis, impressively varying between angelic harmonies, a powerful and classically-induced chorus and even lurking harsh growls. Accompanied by fellow musicians Robert Klawonn (guitars), Tim Schwarz (bass) and Dimitrios Gatsios (drums) the newly formed outfit around band leader, main songwriter, composer and guitarist Marco Heubaum is ready to bring its impressive career to the next level. “Reborn” coincides with a bewitching music video that introduces the new line-up and gives a promising glimpse of what can be expected from this intriguing entity in the near future. Stay tuned for more exciting news coming soon.
Xandria state: “Xandria is reborn… and the first sign of the return to life is the respectively titled song. Like before, Xandria are taking you on a voyage to your imagination, and the emotional and varied voice of new frontwoman Ambre Vourvahis will show you the way there with more facets then ever - prepare for some surprises! The new line up around mastermind Marco Heubaum will definitely start a whole new chapter that is fascinating and fresh, but still genuinely Xandria. Because this is what Xandria always has been - a voyager and explorer in the inspiring world of symphonic and heavy music. And now it is reborn!”
Our former members went on to new musical endevours, and we wish all of them the best for the future, every single musician having been in the band and everyone else having been involved over the years, in gratefulness and respect for the times we shared and everything that they have done for Xandria.
