Part of Italy's underrated but thriving metal community, this act channels heavy metal, power metal, and speed metal with a focus on relentless velocity and old-school metal purity.

Firmly rooted in power metal, this Swedish actfrom Umeå delivers uplifting harmonic progressions and virtuosic instrumental interplay without compromise. They've been at it since 2014, and anthemic choruses and virtuosic solos define their approach.
New York's Eternal Ascent combine symphonic grandeur with power metal's soaring melodicism, constructing anthemic compositions built for arenas and imagined medieval battlefields alike. Active since 2019, they pursue unapologetic epic bombast.

Drawing from Treviso's musical fabric, this Italian act forges Power Metal built on fist-raising anthems built on speed and melody in equal measure. Every chorus reaches for the rafters with militant precision.
Cleveland's Eternal Legacy have been a steady force in Ohio power metal since 2013, delivering high-octave vocals and galloping rhythms with the workmanlike reliability that defines the region's hard rock and metal heritage. They are one of the Rust Belt's more dedicated standard-bearers for the genre.
Out of Idaho Falls since 2013, Eternal North fuses the sweep and grandeur of power metal with the serrated attack of melodic death, conjuring the harsh beauty of the high desert.
