Ultimate Demise will be released through AOR Heaven on 30 October 2020. Wildness was originally intended to be a studio project by drummer and songwriter Erik Modin, but together with guitarists Adam Holmström and Pontus Sköld, singer Gabriel Lindmark and later bass player Marcus Sjösund , the Wildness line-up was complete. The eponymous debut album was released on November 24th, 2017 and immediately became a great international success among fans of melodic hard rock.

Lonewolf – Division Hades 2020, 2CD


Buckle up, LONEWOLF are back with their new album “Division Hades”! The new album is a mix of the LONEWOLF sound from their early days, paired with the epic sound as known from “Heathen Dawn”. The addition of a new lead guitarist obviously had an impact on the songwriting, as each guitarist has an own style. Damien, the band’s new guitarist, already played on the first 3 albums, and brought this “old” feeling and memories back.

Big Country – Out Beyond The River – The Compulsion Years Anthology, 5CD/1DVD Remastered Boxset 2020


Cherry Red Records are pleased to announce the release of “Out Beyond The River: The Complete Compulsion Recordings”, a newly remastered six disc boxed set featuring the original classic line-up of Scottish rock giants Big Country, fronted by the late Stuart Adamson.

And the Nineties had got off to a good start too: their greatest hits collection “Through A Big Country” entered the chart at No. 2, and was only kept from the top spot by another best of, The Carpenters’ “Only Yes
