ALBUM INFO ''Stories Of A War Long Forgotten" is the band's first ever concept album. Sky Van Hoff (Rammstein, Kreator, Caliban) produced, mixed and mastered the album at The Barracks Studios in Ratingen, Germany. On the album's 12 tracks, HOPELEZZ showcases itself on an impressive new level. They never sounded more mature, the choruses have never been catchier, and the guitars have never been more melodic than on their new album. Their mix of brutal metal and pressing melodies instantly grabs the listener by the throat. For the first time ever, HOPELEZZ have included two songs performed in German on an album. Their urge to create something diverse is fulfilled with a cover version of Bonnie Tyler's classic ''Holding Out For A Hero''. BAND BIOGRAPHY Two-times Emergenza band contest winners HOPELEZZ are one of the most exciting and hard-working newcomer bands in Germany! Word about their energetic live shows soon got around, leading to the chance to support bands like Sepultura, Soilwork and Ill Nino. The debut album ''Black Souls Arrive'' was released in 2012. The single ''Devils Ride'' reached #1 at Amazon's Download Charts. The music video for the song was also on heavy rotation at the music-related TV channel iMusic1. The second album, ''Sent To Destroy'', followed in 2016 and was praised by the press and fans alike. The album was supported with an European tour with The Unguided as well as a tour with Six Feet Under. For the first time, HOPELEZZ also successfully played several headliner shows. In 2018, you will see the band supporting Soulfly, Hatebreed and Suffocation, among others HOPELEZZ's principle: No compromises, no rules, no comparisons - risk everything!
