Her Chariot Awaits is a newly formed hard rock/metal group featuring the highly regarded Spanish singer Ailyn Gimenez (ex-Sirenia) on lead vocals and the multi-talented American guitarist and producer Mike Orlando (Adrenaline Mob, Noturnall, Sonic Stomp).
This exciting new musical alliance is yet another creation of Frontiers Records, a label that seems determined to combine as many artists as possible in an infinite amount of bands. In this case, Ailyn and Mike got out of each other’s comfort zones to create a record that offers technical, aggressive, modern and extremely catchy heavy music.
With the band lineup being completed by Jeff “brother of Ron” Thal on drums and Brian Gearty on bass, their debut album builds a bridge between symphonic metal realms and groovy, alternative riffage. It includes ten new songs, and an inspired cover of k. d. Lang’s hit “Constant Craving”, which receives a rather dark treatment.
