IMMORTAL GUARDIAN release “Echoes”, the second new song and music video this year from the progressive/power metal band. The digital single can be heard at all streaming/download platforms or watch the video on KNAC.COM HERE.

“Echoes”' message is further explained by singer Carlos Zema, “For generations, humanity has longed for a truth. The right to unite what has been divided. We long to be free from all our differences, genders, colors, nationalities, religions, beliefs and any other type of separation. This real freedom relies on our minds, in being free from all these fears, repressions, oppressions, and everything else that stops us from being united. In the name of this truth, our voice will echo endlessly – Freedom!”

The talented and hard-working quartet are feverishly putting the finishing touches on a new album since coming home from their recent 5-weeks across the US and Canada with video game-inspired shredders POWERGLOVE, where in the midst of dates they dropped their first new song since last year’s acclaimed Psychosomatic album with “Ozona” - https://youtu.be/vFXXsqk__hA​

Psychosomatic has been lauded by Metal Temple for its “melody and power, two things displayed in a smashing way throughout this album” and led Metal Rules to call the group “one of the most interesting bands that have emerged in recent years on the international power metal scene.” Video clips for the title track, “Candlelight” and “Phobia”, the latter of which featured a guest appearance by ANGRA guitarist Marcelo Barbosa, have captured the ears of heavy metal fans worldwide, while their videos for “Clocks”, “Lockdown” and “Read Between The Lines” have earned praise from the likes of MetalSucks, Metal Injection and Gear Gods. CD and digital editions of Psychomatic are still available for purchase at https://www.smarturl.com/immortalguardian.

After making a splash via their 2018 full-length debut Age of Revolution – which featured its own fair share of creative music videos, including the Armageddon-meets-telenovela clip for “Stardust” – and through tours with the likes of Marty Friedman and EXMORTUS, IMMORTAL GUARDIAN gathered in Las Vegas at the beginning of 2020 to record their second album. As the spread of COVID-19 and the subsequent pandemic began to ensue, shutdowns around the world began being enforced, resulting in the band completely scrapping the record that they had been working on and writing and creating a new thematic record about their emotions surrounding current events. The resulting Psychosomatic was a truly multi-national record, with guitarist/keyboardist Gabriel Guardian – known for his uncanny ability to play the two instruments simultaneously – remaining in Las Vegas, singer Carlos Zema recording his vocals from his home in Brazil, drummer Justin Piedimonte tracking from Montreal and bassist Joshua Lopez recording from IMMORTAL GUARDIAN's native Texas.

The newly-released music videos for “Echoes” and “Ozona” is just a small taste of the new territory that IMMORTAL GUARDIAN plans to take their sound in 2022. More information on additional new music and touring in 2022 will be revealed in the months to come by M-Theory Audio and at https://www.facebook.com/igmetal/.
