Veteran Brazilian Heavy Metal band High Moonlight takes a major step forward in its journey with the highly anticipated release of its debut album, Lycans.
The first glimpse of this new album came with the single “Heavy Play”, which was also released as a music video during the February edition of the Roadie Crew Online Fest, organized by Brazil’s leading rock and metal magazine Roadie Crew. Both song and video received an outstanding response from fans of the genre.
About the song, the band comments:
“Its sound harks back to the old-school Heavy Metal era, blending the creativity of the genre’s golden age with the high-quality production of modern equipment. The lyrics capture the thrill of attending a live show to witness a band playing heavy—an almost sacred moment for every headbanger!”
Formed in the late 90’s, High Moonlight has built its musical identity over the years, delivering a sound deeply rooted in the essence of the genre while maintaining a heavy, creative, and powerfull approach. After releasing the Arcturians EP in 2019, the band underwent some lineup changes, further refining its sound and technical skills.
The band’s current lineup features Ricky Franco (vocals), Robert Guima (guitar), André Luiz (bass), and Kleber Mendonça (drums). Together, this powerful quartet delivers a remarkable album that is sure to enthrall classic metal fans.
