Coronatus

Gothic metal can be so bright! Coronatus demonstrate it with their not less than two front ladies (e.g. Carmen R. Schaefer from the Illuminate cd "Zwei Seelen" and "Liquid Monster" from Brainstorm). The music is very melodious, but includes at the same time very rhythmic guitar riffs which give the music the necessary heaviness. That the ladies furthermore feature totally different voice types, makes Coronatus absolutely unique. Massacre Records (Crematory, Edenbridge...) contracted Coronatus in early summer 2007, so the release of the debut album "Lux Noctis" was on 21st September 2007. It had been recorded and mixed in the Klangschmiede by The Vision Bleak and was refined through a mastering in the Finnvox studio in Helsinki by Mika Jussila (Nightwish, Children Of Bodom...). Excerpts of "Lux Noctis" could be heard on several samplers, e.g. Gothic-sampler 38 as well as Zillo magazine february 2008 as well as the Hungarian Metal Hammer. Coronatus have played live in Germany and Hungary, for instance with Haggard on the Gothica V.-festival, Weto and Illuminate in Germany and Within Temptation in Budapest.
