Album Title & Artwork Revealed By Dark Moor

Spanish power metal act Dark Moor have revealed the album artwork and title for the long awaited follow up to the 2010 release "Ancestral Romance." The new album will be entitled "Ars Musica," and will be issued on June 18, 2013 via Scarlet Records. The artwork for the release can be viewed below.

The band's announcement reads: "Symphonic Power Metal masters Dark Moor are glad to announce the release of their new album 'Ars Musica', following the success of their previous, critically acclaimed effort 'Ancestral Romance'. Dark Moor have taken another step forward in their career, forging a more identifiable sound and expanding their songwriting in multiple directions. They still pay homage to the Spanish cultural heritage in songs such as 'First Lance Of Spain', ‘Gara & Jonay’ and ‘El Último Rey’, but elsewhere they go more personal, still giving high priority to their trademark melodies and elaborate harmonies. Talented singer Alfred Romero offers his best performance to date, whilst orchestrations are less classical and more grandiose and epic. 'Ars Musica' was once again produced by Luigi Stefanini (Rhapsody Of Fire, Labyrinth, Vision Divine) and will hit the stores on June 18th, 2013. Follow www.dark-moor.com for the latest news."

The band previously announced that soprano vocalist Berenice Musa (Tears of Martyr) will once again be the guest vocalist for the album.
