New Message – HARMONIZE ORACLE

Hail Warriors, Long time no see. We are thrilled to announce that we are back. We are forever thankful for your patience during what we like to call our ‘dark ages’ and for your unwavering support throughout the years, which has been the driving force that kept us going through the challenges we’ve faced. Hold on tight because we are about to come in strong with our latest updates. It is finally time that we officially announce our vocalist’s departure from Harmonize, due to his commitments with none other than Power metal band, Gloryhammer. It is with a heavy heart that we relieve him of his duties to the band but simultaneously proud to...

Shield Wall – Amon Amarth Cover – Out on 18th November

Cyprian Hellenes, Harmonize, in disguise as Vikings in a new cover single release Wondering what Harmonize from Cyprus have been up to since the release of their debut album?  The band has been exploring different sounds, gradually evolving into their unique genre of choice, with influences of melodic death, such as that of Swedish legends, Amon Amarth. Therefore, it is no surprise they chose to take their own approach of the pounding and dynamic 'Shield Wall'. A cover released 18th November. This slightly different approach to the song provides us with insight to the energy, hard work and solid performance on instruments and vocals the band aims to adopt as a main focus for their...

Straight from the picturesque, small island of Cyprus here are the warriors from Harmonize!The Universe of their extensive novel inspired by the fantasy classics begins with their debut album 'Warrior in the Night', but this is really just the beginning - they plan to release it also in the text (and extended) form, and also continue on the next album, on which the work has already started.

Interview & Review – Pete’s Rock News and Views

Warrior in the Night Album Review Harmonize is a band from Cyprus, formed in 2012, standing on the point, where heavy metal meets power metal and thrash metal. This music amalgam has even more ingredients though, since the band demonstrates in its debut album its epic metal, doom metal and extreme metal influences. If you listen to the album’s songs, you will understand that the band plays in the vein of Metallica, Iced Earth, Annihilator, Savatage, Iron Maiden and Manowar, having long compositions with a complex structure and a majestic tone. Harmonize’s music is like a riddle, which waits to be solved. As soon as you get in the mood of the songs, a new,...

Heroism arises from the Hellenic Sphere – Album Review by Sonic Perspectives

For a relatively small nation within the European Union, Cyprus has fielded a fairly impressive metal scene with a diverse range of expressions, with a sizable plurality opting for the more extreme end of the spectrum. However, there are a few noteworthy underground acts that have lent their talent to the power metal sub-genre, with acts hailing from the Nicosia such as Winter’s Verge and Astronomikon offering up a sound fairly similar to the one that have dominated much of Northern and Western Europe for the past couple decades. Recently a younger quintet from the same city going by the moniker Harmonize has opted to turn the clock back on said style...

Warrior in the Night album review by Metal Underground

With HARMONIZE we are dealing with another troop from the island state of Cyprus. The Heavy / Thrash / Power Metal faction from Nicosia has been active since 2012 but is only now delivering their debut album with "Warrior in the Night" . The triumvirate of genre elements is actually well mixed, although the listener will find that the Cypriots are in the traditional heavy corner. The sound edges were provided with Thrashisgen fragments and this is immediately apparent on the first track "Never Back Down" . Doesn't mean that we are dealing with a definite retro troupe in the form of HARMONIZE . The lessons were certainly intus, but in contrast, they...
