Artist News: Powerworld Signs With SPV/Steamhammer

Posted on Saturday, August 07 @ 20:00:00 UTC by nightowl

German melodic metal band Powerworld, the brainchild of former Freedom Call and Moon'Doc bassist Ilker Ersin, has inked a worldwide deal with SPV/Steamhammer. The band's new album, Human Parasite, will be released in Europe on October 22 and in the USA/Canada on November 9. A European tour will take place in early 2011.

Powerworld's current lineup is as follows: Andrew "Mac"McDermott (Sargant Fury, Threshold) - Vocals; Barish Kepic (Jaded Heart) - Guitar; Ilker Ersin (Freedom Call, Moon'Doc) - Bass; Nils Neumann (Freedom Call) - Keyboards; Achim Keller (Victory) - Drums

After his departure from Freedom Call in the middle of 2005, Ersin decided to follow a different musical path and started to work on a project that contained more grooves and less power metal influences.
