Swedish melodic hard rock band Art Nation has released their long-awaited new album. From the beginning of the album, a melancholic melody typical of Scandinavia explodes, making this a must-listen masterpiece for AOR and Scandinavian metal fans!

[Includes Japanese manual/translation of lyrics/Japanese edition limited bonus track included]

Swedish melodic hard rock band Art Nation was formed in 2014 by vocalist Alexander Strandell, guitarist Christoffer Borg, and bassist Richard Svärd. The following year, in 2015, they made their album debut with ``Revolution,'' and their popularity exploded at once. Having been nominated for Sweden's biggest music award three years in a row, it's not hard to imagine how incredible the momentum was. In 2017, they released their second album, ``Liberation,'' and in 2019, they released their third album, ``Transition.'' Its popularity continues to grow. However, the band could not keep up with the rapid changes in the environment and decided to take a break. I will be inactive for a while. It was 23 years ago that they returned to the scene with the recommendation of the prestigious Italian label Frontiers Records. The fourth album ``Inception'' released by Frontiers was also praised by fans around the world as a masterpiece of melodic hard rock.

Art Nation will be releasing their long-awaited new album. The album, titled ``Chapter V: The Ascendance,'' is ``an approach to a more modern heavy sound while retaining the band's trademark memorable melodies.'' From the beginning of the album, a melancholic melody typical of Scandinavia explodes. Riffs and solos that you'll never forget once you hear them. Alexander's vocals also touch your heart. If you like melodic hard rock, AOR, and Scandinavian metal, this is a must-listen masterpiece!

・So popular that it was nominated for the Gaffa-priset, which is said to be Sweden's Grammy Award, from 2015 to 2017.

・First new work in two years from the pioneer of melodic hard rock

・A must-listen masterpiece that brings out the best of Scandinavian metal and Melohar!
