Recently, Majestica released an extended version of their latest album titled “A Christmas Carol”, finally completing the story surrounding grumpy old Ebenezer Scrooge with two new songs.

Imagine deserted volcanic wasteland, freezing winds, and the all-embracing darkness of the longest winters on this planet: the obvious inspiration for rather vicious and somber tunes for lonely evening hours that the biggest part of Iceland’s heavy music scene is known for. Who would dare to think of tales about brave warriors and mystical creatures coming from such an island? Power metal seemed like a fairytale until 2017 when a Reykjavík-based sextet rose in quest of carrying out their uplifting tunes and finally proving everyone wrong.

Rockshots Records is proud to announce their signing of Beriedir for the release of their new album “AQVA” on January 21st, 2022.

In August 2019, power metal newcomers NorthTale released their successful first album “Welcome to Paradise”.
