ENZO AND THE GLORY ENSEMBLE have unleashed a new Video for “Try To Put In Pit The Fear” feat. ORPHANED LAND‘s Kobi Farhi. The new Album “In The Name Of The World Spirit” will come out next week March 27th via Rockshots Records.

Enzo and The Glory Ensemble’s stellar line-up includes Enzo Donnarumma, Marty Friedman, Kobi Farhi (Orphaned Land), Ralf Scheepers (Primal Fear), Mark Zonder (Fates Warning, Warlord), Gary Wehrkamp & Brian Ashland (Shadow Gallery), Nicholas Leptos (Warlord, Arrayan Path), Derek Corzine & Amulyn Braught Corzine (Whisper from Heaven) , David Brown (Metatrone), Alessandro Battini (Dark Horizon), Maria Londino and Francesco Romeggini (S91), Mr Jack, Claudia Coticelli and Clara People.
Lasting over one hour across 13 tracks, ‘In The Name Of The World Spirit’ will be definitely a must-have for all those who are into progressive metal with ethnic influences. This final chapter of the trilogy is a bridge between the western and the eastern cultures, besides a huge step towards a top-notch production. The balance between the instrumental parts and the vocals are now improved, while the ethnic arrangements are driven by the magnificent Weza Meza Choir ensemble from Congo. Once again, thanks to the massive choir section, ‘In The Name Of The World Spirit’ sets a new standard into the so-called “Gospel Metal” scene.

Israeli Rockers THE SECRET SAINTS – feat. ORPHANED LAND‘s guitarist Chen Balbus – have released their new single for the song ‘Love For A Night’, which will feature on debut album “Can You Keep A Secret?”, and it’s available to stream on Spotify and Apple Music. The video can be seen below.
The video for the song features Israeli actress Nesti Cherevko. Singer Tal Shachar wrote the lyrics two years ago about a woman with whom he was in a secret relationship. “She was amazing,” he said. “She had that magic inside her, that something in the eyes that I’m always looking for. It’s weird for me to say it because she was young and I knew that nothing serious could happen, but I wanted more from her. I think I actually had a crush for the first time in many year, but she didn’t want anything but a physical relationship. How’s that for a complaint?”
“After a while we didn’t talk anymore and the song is about that – like, you are the only one I want and, if you don’t want anything serious, at least let me be your love for a night.”

Chechu Nos Stated: “After the warm welcome given to their debut album from the media and audiences, Spanish Prog Metal band NORTH OF SOUTH come back with a second release, definitely ready to storm onto a new level of the worldwide metal scene. The ambition behind “The dogma and the outsider” EP (coming out in October) is revealed by the participation of some guest stars of international caliber.
As a categorical first demonstration, Israeli Kobi Farhi (Orphaned Land) is featured in their new single, “Ember Remains”, a total “tour de force” that displays NORTH OF SOUTH’s wide collection of Hispanic, Melodic and Extreme Metal influences, combining them with the oriental flavour of Farhi’s incendiary performance.
This new song comes with the support of an elegant and colourful lyric video by British Andy Pilkington, with whom North of South already worked in their first album and who has made productions for renowned artists and bands like Saxon, Rotting Christ, Flotsam & Jetsam, Dee Snider and Gus G.”
