GAIABETA – GATE OF GAIABETA LABEL: PITCH BLACK RECORDS RELEASE DATE: MAY 16th 2025
Formed in 2017, in the city of Feira de Santana, by vocalist Marcos Diantoni, GaiaBeta are a Brazilian heavy metal band, twice recognised with national awards in their home country and steeped in the sound of the finest proponents of the art, raised on the classics but with an energy and imagination all their own. Having honed their craft performing at some of the biggest metal events in Brazil, GaiaBeta are now ready to unveil their debut album – a meticulously crafted blend of power, melody and dramatic storytelling that explores themes of myth, history and human conflict…this is Gate Of GaiaBeta!
From its opening track, the measured pace and subtle touches of eastern flavour of ‘The Pharaoh’s Return’, Gate Of GaiaBeta begins to draw you into its world. The strong, clear vocals, the dextrous, instinctive guitar work and the powerful underpinning of the rhythm section all combine to entwine the listener in a vibrant, thrilling atmosphere. From ‘Get Your Freedom’ with its shining riffs that slash and slice like a rapier blade and solos that draw on the peerless inspiration of Iron Maiden’s Dave Murray and Adrian Smith, to the enthralling epics of ‘Hands Of Revenge’ and ‘Innocent Land’ with their sense of narrative conjured by the outstanding vocals of Marcos Diantoni, the listener becomes ever more enthralled by the sonic creations of GaiaBeta.
The songs that form Gate Of GaiaBeta travel from moments of explosive, adrenaline infused pace and excitement, to fragile sorrows and dark edged menace, all masterfully woven into a journey through realms of superlative heavy, melodic metal. The album itself concludes with the glorious, galloping rhythms of the anthemic ‘Victory Is Coming’, although the CD version exclusively includes three bonus tracks. These tracks are GaiaBeta’s previously released singles – ‘The Last Warriors’, ‘Ashes From The Stars’ and ‘Back To The Past (Nevermore)’ – each one thoroughly deserving of their inclusion and a new platform for their stirring metal might.
Gate Of GaiaBeta will be released by the long standing and well respected supporters of metal, Pitch Black Records, on May 16th on CD and digital formats, complete with distinctive, evocative artwork. For all those who still carry a flame in their hearts for true heavy metal, this album is unmissable. GaiaBeta are following proudly in the footsteps of their heroes and bringing a new touch of magic to the greatest sounds of all!
