POWER PROG Releases: Boguslaw Balcerak's Crylord

For album No. 2, BOGUSLAW BALCERAK has gathered again a real Metal vocal elite around him, especially the

well-known singing artists Carsten "Lizard" Schulz (Evidence One, Book Of Reflections, ex Domain), Rick Altzi

(Masterplan, At Vance, Epysode) and Neo-Classical legends Mark Boals (ex Malmsteen, ex Royal Hunt, Ring Of

Fire, Iron Mask) and Gran Edman (ex Malmsteen, Karmakanic, Brazen Abbot) are particularly worthy of mention.

The result is an impressive Neo-Classical Metal masterpiece that shines with fantastic and song matching vocals,

the exceptional and stunning guitar work of the master himself, lots of fastidious progressive elements and

structures and melodies that will dig into the ear canals. Three years after his much-publicized debut, BOGUSLAW

BALCERAK'S CRYLORD are back with their second blast "Gates Of Valhalla" and are definitively a real contender

for the current Neo-Classical Metal throne.

POWER PROG is proud to present the second album of Polish guitar

master BOGUSLAW BALCERAK and his Neo-Classical/Melodic/

Progressive Metal project CRYLORD. "Gates Of Valhalla" will be

released at June 20, 2014 as CD through our distributors/partners and as

digital download in all popular download stores.

Born in 1972, Boguslaw picked up the guitar at age 16 and over the

years he was in several bands based in his home city of Warsaw,

Poland. CRYLORDSs formation came about in late 2007 but finding a

suitable vocalist in his native homeland proved difficult for Balcerak. So

he set about recording the instrumental parts for the first planned full

lenght album whilst continuing the search for the right vocalists. Once

the songs were complete, Boguslaw took the chance to invited three of

his favourite vocalists to perform on the album - Mark Boals, Gran

Edman and Carsten Lizard Schulz - who all accepted their participation

after hearing the quality of the music on offer. Some time later everything

was in the box and with "Blood On The Prophets" (released via Lion

Music) an extraordinary debut was presented in 2011.
