Ancient Curse - the band from the north brought heavy metal to the Caribbean in 1996. The latest album of the Bremen quartet will be released at the end of 2024 - an innovative and spectacular sound sphere: "Dimension 5".
With the new album, the band wants to build on their greatest success to date: In the mid-1990s, the "Cuban town musicians" (quote from "Deaf Forever" 2/2020) landed a number 1 hit in Cuba with the song "Plastic Tears" and toured the sugar cane island as state guests and the first western band after the Beatles. The tour under palm trees was a huge success.
With an unchanged line-up from the 90s, Ancient Curse have now recorded nine impressive and multi-layered songs on "Dimension 5".
There is a wide range of sophisticated music to be heard, from thrash attacks, elegiac-symphonic, progressive songs to power ballads. Pure progressive power metal is the thread that runs through the album. The name Ancient Curse stands for razor-sharp riffs, energetic power parts, melancholic acoustic interludes, expressive and dynamic vocals and complex arrangements all developed over many years of playing together.
