Each album has amped up the intensity just a notch, but this time it felt more natural. The pop melodies and the Icarus atmosphere is still very much present but the music is leaning more towards a metal edge, if you will. Every song brings something unique to the overall picture as we have experimented more with different styles and various sub-genres.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Peter Kotevski, President Battlegod Productions, &#8220;Very impressed the first time I heard them, the vocals really grabbed me and the music just flowed along nicely. Great songs, awesome album and it really stands out to all other label releases due to it have a commercial sound and vibe. An enjoyable album to listen to and also fresh at the same time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Release Date: June 13, 2025<br \/>\nPurchase:\u00a0Australia $20 &#8211; Shipping $3.50<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.paypal.com\/cgi-bin\/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&amp;hosted_button_id=2UXZ5S5H8MN9G\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pay Now Via PayPal<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Overseas<br \/>\nEuro\/US: 13.00 Euro &#8211; Shipping 17.00 Euro<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.paypal.com\/cgi-bin\/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&amp;hosted_button_id=XBM88ERQZFTWE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pay Now Via PayPal<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Swedish pop metal duo Flight of Icarus originated back in 2016 when Oskar Frantz\u00e9n discovered the utmost unique and beautiful singing voice coming from his wifes best friend; Elisabeth S\u00e4rnef\u00e4lt R\u00f6sehag. What was meant to be a quick one-off single release became so much more.After years of playing in various metal bands, Oskar shifted gear to put his mind towards contemporary rock with a strong, solid splash of pop. After months of trying different singers on a new song, one voice would suddenly echo through the walls&#8230; and what a voice that was. Never would he expect that the talent needed for this one song was present right there in his very own home. Elisabeth S\u00e4rnef\u00e4lt R\u00f6sehag, a close friend to the family, was quickly approached to record vocals on what ended up being &#8220;Dawn of a New Day&#8221;. Realising this song was something out of the ordinary, Oskar got in touch with long-time friend Oz Hawe Petersson (guitarist of Osukaru) in hopes of getting a few names of whom to contact for radio airplay. It took Oz half a listen before the duo instead was offered an all inclusive management deal with his agency Blindfoldead International MGMT. A new partnership was born. The single became a self-titled album full of powerful pop euphoria and modern day AOR nostalgia. The duo had taken the moniker of Flight of Icarus (inspired by the Iron Maiden song) and saw themselves compared to the likes of Roxette and Heart, with the pump of Meat Loaf and West End Musicals A touch of Within Temptation a nice mix with Evanescence and Battle Beast. The year was 2018 and \u00a0Flight of Icarus had made everyone sure they were here to stay. In 2021 the duo released their follow-up album &#8220;Cleo&#8221; with a concept of which the world needed at the time. While everyone was isolated from each other, Flight of Icarus provided us a tale of hope and grandeur where the character of Cleo painted us a brand new world. The music was a mix of cinematic pop and \u00a0upbeat heavy metal, topped with gorgeous vocals and intersonical soundscapes. An evolution well received from critics all over.Shortly after the release, the world opened up and Flight of Icarus was ready for the stage. After a successful show at Scandirock Melodic in the spring of 2022, the band proved their place for a world-wide audience. Whispers endured and people wanted more.<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Tracklisting:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Icarus Rise<\/li>\n<li>Terra Nova<\/li>\n<li>Lost Highway<\/li>\n<li>To the Sun (and Back Again)<\/li>\n<li>Through Space and Time<\/li>\n<li>Deus<\/li>\n<li>God Bless<\/li>\n<li>War Cry<\/li>\n<li>Nangilima<\/li>\n<li>Liberi<\/li>\n<li>Flight of Icarus [Iron Maiden cover] \u2013 CD track exclusive bonus track<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong><u>Discography:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cFlight of Icarus\u201d<\/strong> March 23rd, 2018 <em>Self-released<\/em><br \/>\n<strong>\u201cCleo\u201d<\/strong> May 14th, 2021 <em>Self-released<\/em><br \/>\n<strong>\u201cTerra Nova\u201d<\/strong> June 13th, 2025 <em>Battlegod Productions<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Singles:<br \/>\n<strong>\u201cDawn of a New Day\u201d<\/strong> April 11th, 2016 <em>Self-released<\/em><br \/>\n<strong>\u201cOur Burning Star\u201d<\/strong> February 5th, 2021<em>Self-released<\/em><br \/>\n<strong>\u201cFly Away\u201d<\/strong> March 5th, 2021 <em>Self-released<\/em><br \/>\n<strong>\u201cCleo\u201d<\/strong> April 9th, 2021 <em>Self-released<\/em><br \/>\n<strong>\u201cTerra Nova\u201d<\/strong> b\/w <strong>\u201cBeyond Atlantica\u201d<\/strong>March 7th, 2025<br \/>\n<em>Battlegod Productions<\/em><br \/>\n<strong>\u201cLost Highway\u201d<\/strong> [radio edit] April 18th, 2025 <em>Battlegod Productions<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong><u>Line-up:<br \/>\n<\/u><\/strong>Elisabeth S\u00e4rnef\u00e4lt R\u00f6sehag:<br \/>\nLead &amp; backing vocals<br \/>\nOskar keyboards<br \/>\nErik S\u00f6derman: Guitar solo on \u201cTerra Nova\u201d<br \/>\nBobby R\u00f6sehag: Additional guitar on \u201cTerra Nova\u201d<br \/>\nRickard Andersson:Duet vocals on \u201cTo the Stars (and Back Again)\u201d<br \/>\nMagnus Dahlin: Drums<br \/>\nDisa Frantz\u00e9n: Backing vocals<\/p>\n<p><strong><u>WEBSITE AND SOCIAL MEDIA:<br \/>\n<\/u><\/strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/flightoficarusband\/\">www.facebook.com\/flightoficarusband\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-51178\" src=\"http:\/\/michaelbrandvold.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/pr-2025-04-28-icarus-02-683x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"400\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">For all inquiries, contact:<br \/>\nMICHAEL BRANDVOLD MARKETING &amp; MANAGEMENT<br \/>\nMichael Brandvold | me@mikebrandvold.com | 415-200-8483<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Michael Brandvold is a freelance music industry consultant based in Northern California.
