Kilmara – Journey to the Sun 2025
Kilmara sounds more current, more powerful and heavier than ever, thanks to an excellent and careful production. With the aim set on finding the best and most fresh sound possible, Kilmara put the recording of their new studio album in the hands of Carles Salse in his Sureau Studio, and the also teamed up with world-renowned and award-winning producer Seeb Levermann (Orden Ogan, Angus MCSIX, Rhapsody Of Fire, Riot V).
Conceptually, “Journey to the Sun” is set in the Arcade halls of the late 80’s, where first loves, unbreakable friendships, rivalries, defeats and victory celebrations took place. Kilmara, pick up the baton as heirs of the heroes of Power Metal and bring back the singer of the legendary and sorely missed swedish band Lost Horizon, Daniel Heiman, one of the best voices that the genre has given and who will undoubtedly overwhelm you with his performance as a special guest in “Take Me Back”.
After the additions of Eric Killer, a real steamroller on the drums, and the guitarist, producer and composer Carles Salse, the band is renewed in every way and presents their new work “Journey to the Sun”, an adventure of epic proportions that transcends the limits explored up to this point by the band from Barcelona. With this new chapter in their career, Kilmara tells us about the power and strength that all human beings are capable of gathering when we are united by the same purpose. They also tell us about the struggle to discover the path to truth and freedom. All of this in a journey to the impossible, crossing borders beyond this very dimension to finally reach contact with the Sun.
Produced by Carles Salse, mixed by Miguel Ángel Marchal and mastered by Seeb Levermann, while the retro album front cover is a work by the band’s bassist Didac Plà.
Today marks the start of pre-sales for “Journey to the Sun”, which will be released on January 31st, 2025, via RPM ROAR as a CD jewel case, limited to 300 copies “Mediterranean Aura marbled vinyl and digital streaming/download.
