Wanikiya Record/Promotion is proud to announce the official signing of Stal In Steel to its artist roster. This new collaboration marks the beginning of an extensive international promotional campaign for the album “Soy el Poder”, already available in digital format on all major platforms.
“Soy el Poder” (translated: I Am the Power) is a powerful and visionary concept album, released on January 1st, 2026, exploring profound themes related to the rebirth of humanity in the fifth dimension and the awakening of the soul. A work that blends energy, spirituality, and rebellion, perfectly embodying the most authentic essence of hard & heavy metal.
The album opens with the single “Soy el Poder”, a true war cry against religious institutions seen as instruments of division, followed by “Matrix”, a track depicting the fall of the last empire. Songs like “Despertando” explore the concept of multidimensional existence, while “Final” symbolically marks the end of an era.
With “Esclavo”, the band addresses technological dependency, while “Un Demonio” tackles addiction, comparing heroin to a demonic presence. “Forajidos” celebrates freedom and the rock lifestyle, while “Desolación” stands out as an intense and painful cry reflecting modern times.
Stal In Steel is the project led by Stalin Noriega, an artist born in Ecuador and based in Italy since 1999, specifically in Turin. His musical vision blends the sounds of 1980s hard & heavy rock with modern influences from the Northern European metal scene, while maintaining a strong linguistic identity through the use of Spanish.
Noriega’s career began at a young age in the city of Loja, later continuing in the capital Quito with various musical and media experiences, before moving to Italy, where the Stal In Steel project fully took shape.
The current lineup also features Cuban producer and guitarist Xavi Masvidal, Massimiliano Del Re on bass, Mr. Z (Marzio Francone) on drums (audio/video producer), and Fabio “Riff” Pezzuto on guitars.
Over the years, several tracks from the project have achieved significant recognition, including appearances on international compilations such as Zona del Metal (Madrid), as well as notable results in radio charts, culminating in the #1 position in 2024 for the single “Matrix” on Stereo Hits Radio in Bolivia.
With this new addition, Wanikiya Record/Promotion once again confirms its international vision and ongoing commitment to promoting high-quality artists in the global rock and metal scene.
The promotional machine has officially started: “Soy el Poder” is ready to conquer the world.
