Having stirred up the scene in 2019 with their debut album “Finally Free” released via Dr. Music Records, which also achieved international success, and acclaimed live shows, the extraordinary Melodic Metal formation NEVARIA from the Bavarian city of Bayreuth now, after the pandemic-induced break, announces their new single with “Reckless” for February 03, 2022. Now acting as a duo, the musicians Tanja Schneider (vocals) and Markus Spiethaler (keyboards) carry on their vision of catchy Female Fronted Melodic Metal and enlisted support for the recording from guitarist Kim Wölfel, who already played on the debut, as well as Daniel Unzner (Dislocated Theory; Ex-Profanity), who recorded the bass with nimble fingers. The young, untamed Metal guitar work in combination with dynamic drumming, a perceptibly powerful bass and graceful keyboard melodies, is thereby completed by the vivid, brilliant vocals of the former Dawn Of Destiny vocalist. Without leaving the chosen path, NEVARIA refreshingly evolved their independent sound with elements from electronic music and “Reckless”, like the album before, was mixed and mastered by André Hofmann (Nothgard, Wolfchant, New Hate Rising). Focusing on just two songwriters provides a real boost in creativity and the mix of hard guitars and refreshing, electronic vibes, enthroned by Tanja Schneider’s imposing voice, is impressively convincing. Driving synthie arpeggios, which already take on house or trance-like features, are paired here with beats and natural harsh guitar riffs, which provide the necessary hardness.
