Los Angeles, California-based cinematic metal/rock unit Edge Of Paradise - who have made waves in the heavy music scene with acclaimed albums like Universe (2019), The Unknown (2021) and Hologram (2023), as well as tours with the likes of Lacuna Coil, DragonForce and Amaranthe - are pleased to announce that they have signed a worldwide contract with premier rock and metal empire Napalm Records
Today, in celebration of the band's signing, they have released a soaring new single entitled "Rogue (Aim For The Kill)", accompanied by a brand new music video. The anthemic track swaggers with electric energy and dynamic vocals, transforming into a theatrical metallic burner.
The track and video arrive just days before Edge Of Paradise kicks off their upcoming US tour with headliners Firewind and fellow support act Immortal Guardian, beginning this Thursday, April 11 in Clifton, NJ.
Guitarist Dave Bates says about signing with Napalm Records: "We are thrilled to be joining forces with Napalm Records and look forward to elevating the world of Edge Of Paradise to new heights! With the support of our strong production team we've built over the years, and the forces of Napalm rallying behind our unified vision, it will allow us to focus on what is important: unleashing a new dimension of Edge Of Paradise and delivering the most exhilarating, powerful and futuristic experience possible!"
Frontwoman Margarita Monet adds about the new song: "'Rogue' is a supercharged anthem, propelling the band into an exciting new era on all fronts! Fuelled by our history and the thought-provoking narratives of our past albums, 'Rogue' smashes through every barrier we've encountered over the years and reshapes our own limits! This song truly captures our spirit and we hope to spark inspiration in others to never give up on their extraordinary paths! So let’s 'Aim for the Kill' together, united by the unwavering strength!"
