Wykan has the perfect EP for anyone who wonders what it would sound like to merge modern black metal with vintage 70’s era psychedelic stoner rock.

Rockshots Records To Release Italian Symphonic Power Metal MaterDea New Album “Pyaneta”
Out In Europe June 8th, North America July 6th

MaterDea is one of the most known and recognizable metal bands in Italy coming out of the pagan and celtic scene. It has been 2 years since their last release, a full length entitled “The Goddess’ Chants” and they are ready to indulge their listeners in a new fascinating and enthralling journey with “Pyaneta”.
Following the direction started with “A Rose for Egeria”, this new record is a further step forward into the melding of metal and Celtic music, in the personal style that MaterDea’s fans will acknowledge and love once more. It is a powerful symphony where all the instruments and the voices join the sounds of nature, painting new grandiose landscapes enriched by colors and sophisticated arrangements. The melodies reveal themselves along with the sumptuous guitar riffs, a powerful rhythmic session and the twist of strings and orchestration, allowing the listener to be carried away in a dimension full of energy, beauty and hope by these magical tales.
The band describes “Pyaneta”:
“In this new album the stories are inspired by the deep interconnection that exists between every living thing and the largest sentient organism that hosts us, our planet Earth. It is an exhortation to the awareness of the environmental danger, a cry of hope for its future and a message of love for life in its gorgeous wholeness.”
MaterDea goes to great lengths to ensure that their listeners can be thrust away from reality and thrown into a fantastical world full of enchantment and magic and “Pyaneta”, their fifth album promises to do just that. Citing influences such as Genesis, Jethro Tull and Led Zeppelin, the band creates a gentle yet powerful type of metal with various classical overtones. With a desire to create powerful, intense, emotional music that features pantheistic themes the 7 classically trained Italian musicians paint a rich fantasy world for their listeners. To date they have released four full lengths, “Below the Mists, Above the Brambles” (2009), “Satyricon” (2011), “A Rose for Egeria” (2014) and “The Goddess’ Chants” (2016).
“Pyaneta” is set to be released via Rockshots Records in Europe on June 8 and in North America on July 6. There is currently a crowdfund set up for fans who wish to support the album by pre ordering or donating.

MaterDea is currently one of the most known and recognizable metal bands in Italy coming out of the pagan and celtic scene. They started in 2008 when Simon Papa and Marco Strega collaborated to create a celtic soundtrack for a short movie, that composition took the name of MaterDea, which would later become the name of the band the pair founded while writing the debut album “Below the Mists, Above the Brambles”.
The band shares their name’s origin story: “MaterDea was our first composition, and since we were looking for a name for our new project, we thought it was a good idea to use a Latin name that could evoke our feelings towards the Great Mother. The name MaterDea also embodies both our mystical atmosphere and the fantastic and mythological characters taken from the pagan and celtic culture from which our lyrics draw inspiration.”
Citing influences such as Genesis, Jethro Tull and Led Zeppelin, the band creates a gentle yet powerful type of metal with various classical overtones. With a mission to create powerful, intense, emotional music that features pantheistic themes the 7 classically trained Italian musicians paint a rich fantasy world for their listeners. To date they have released four full lengths, “Below the Mists, Above the Brambles” (2009), “Satyricon” (2011), “A Rose for Egeria” (2014) and “The Goddess’ Chants” (2016). Their fifth work “Pyaneta” will be released in Europe on June 8, 2018 and North America on July 6, 2018 vi Rockshots Records.

““Yersinia Pestis”, a Thrashtacular anthem which is classy and expertly delivered. Similar to this is “Master Machine”, a dark aggressive ditty which wears its influences on its sleeve. Equally pleasing is the callous and frothing Heavy Metal of “Call of the Blackbird”, full of venom and a certain perverse joie de vivre.” – Metal Rules
