US melodic Power metal quintet Dreemwich, was formed in 1988 in Topeka, Kansas with the intricate guitar work of Kevin Streeter, powerful drums of Steve Case, precision bass of Jeff Dodd, soaring vocals of Matt Cavanaugh and electrifying guitar of Ronnie Fields.

The band focused on writing and recording their debut self titled EP – first released in 1989. After this first release and gaining professional management, the band began performing a series of live gigs in and around Topeka and Kansas City, Missouri, helping to build a following of dedicated fans. Five months after the release of the EP, guitarist Ronnie Fields would depart from the band. To fill in temporarily, the band enlisted the services of two local guitarists. First, Steve Schneider added his blistering guitar riffs to the recording of a second 5 song demo and performed a few shows with the band. This was followed by guitarist Mark Case, who added his depth of talent to the band on it’s first mini tour through the Midwest and West Coast.

Upon returning home, another line-up change would force the search for a new lead vocalist as well. In the spring of 1990, Dave Buller’s melodic guitar playing, along with Bryan Cowsert’s strong vocal delivery and energetic performance style, ushered in the next Dreemwich phase.

This line-up recorded a three song demo of which two songs were included on the Midwest Metal Fest compilation released by Ground Zero Entertainment. Fresh out of the studio, this new incarnation of Dreemwich embarked on a 45 day tour of the East Coast and upper Midwest.

Then in late 1990, a third line up change brought Karl Keller’s dynamic vocals along with the richly textured guitar work of Scott Shipps. After months of writing new material and numerous live gigs with Karl and Scott, Dreemwich would begin work on a fourth demo (unreleased & sadly unfinished) as well as perform showcases in Los Angeles and Chicago before disagreements with management led to their disbanding in 1992.

Arkeyn Steel Records have managed to track down this excellent band. We dug very deeply and release their entire back catalogue (17 songs in total, more than 78’ minutes of music including everything that the band has ever recorded). It seemed impossible but we finally made it.
As usual all songs remastered from original tapes for the best sound journey.
Comes in 16-page fat glossy booklet with lyrics, band story and full of unreleased pics.

In 1991, four high school friends in the Chicago suburbs; Steve Stefani, Michael Konopka, Adam Polzin, and Oliver Schmidt, united to form a band and produce a killer metal sound that would violate the ears of every man, woman, and child in the universe.

Countless nights and weekends in Mike’s parent’s basement soon followed, and after crafting a handful of original songs, the band was ready for a vocalist. An ad placed in the local Illinois Entertainer magazine was answered by Scott Huffman (Syris, Spirit Web, Mindwarp Chamber, Twelfth Gate etc). Scott’s strong vocals and original lyrics were a perfect match for the shredding guitar, thunderous drums, and mind-blowing bass that gave the band its signature sound. Lords of Meat was born!

In 1993, “A Mind A World Away” was recorded at Metropolis Studios and released on 500 cassette tapes, with another 100 CDRs soon to follow.

Arkeyn Steel’s “A Mind A World Away” CD features both the band’s demos – “A Mind A World Away” (1993) and the unreleased Live Demo 1992.

Legion from Augusta, Georgia, USA was founded back in 1985 by multi-instrumentalist Doug Calloway. His vision to deliver a powerful mixture of Heavy/Power and Speed Metal performed by a fully dedicated band was clear since the very first rehearsal with the vocalist Loy Mitcham.

With Marvin Mitcham on drums and Chuck Goodwin on bass, Legion became a four piece metal force. They recorded and presented -live and in studio- some high class steel in their very own way. Imagine a very powerful mix of early Metal Church, Deadly Blessing, Omen and Enchanter and you can understand the basic musical vibe of Legion.

From 1985 until 1994 Legion recorded lots of material. Unfortunately due to various difficulties only an official independent LP tape release has seen the light of day back in 1991. An original copy of the “Darkness” LP-tape is one of the wildest dreams of the few people worldwide who know about Legion’s existence.

Arkeyn Steel Records have managed to track down this magnificent band. But we knew from the very first time that a simple re-release of the “Darkness” LP tape wouldn’t do full justice. To release their entire back catalogue was the main goal. It seemed impossible but we finally made it.

So here they are: Two separate CD releases representing the Legion saga. The first one is called “Darkness” and it will feature the entire “Darkness” LP-tape (1991) plus the band’s fourth unreleased album “For We Are Many” (1994). More than 77 minutes of music, the Legion way.

The second release is called “Bible Of Stone” and it will feature the band’s unreleased “Bible Of Stone” album (1989) plus their unreleased compilation album “Monsters” (a wide selection of rare and unreleased tracks, 4 track and rehearsal recordings from the band’s first era (1985-1987) plus their 1985 2-song demo. More than 72 minutes of music, capturing the band’s first era!
Everything is re-mastered direct from 24track tapes packed with lyrics, info and bio. Handmade cover artwork by Doug Calloway himself completes the puzzle giving to the reissues this obscure, fantasy artistic touch that fits extremely well with the band’s vision.

Legion is not just another lost Metal band from the 80s. Legion is the great example of force, passion and dedication to steel, transformed into music. No, back in the day Legion got no big record label and big budgets on their side, they got no promoters and managers to spread their music around. They simply got their magnificent talent and their dedication to music. They remained active recording their stuff, letting no difficulties touch them. Well now it is time for all the music to see the daylight the way it deserves. Get ready for the ultimate Metal experience! Get ready for JOIN THE LEGION!

For those who have been asking “Where have we been?”, for those who keep on writing to us asking for updates and new releases, well this one is for you. It is a fact that we don’t let a single day to pass without searching for stuff to release, however the bands and the music that would fit our and your high standards are the main goal, so expect only hand-picked releases even if it takes a little more time for them to happen. So it is time to announce two forthcoming releases that will blow your US Metal minds away. Here we go:

Uncertain Future – Shock The System CD (Limited to 500 hand-numbered copies)
ONLY FIRST 50 COPIES WILL ARRIVE WITH PRO-PRINT PROMO PICTURE!
Uncertain Future from Kansas City, Missouri, USA delivered fine Power / Prog Metal in the vein of Queensryche, Lethal, and Mystic Force. They have released one demo tape back in 1991 and a private CD two years later (1993). Those aware of the band’s existence were always keeping a high slot on their want lists for those releases, especially for the “Shock The System” private CD which was limited to 500 copies and was sold for more than $300 among collectors. Well now the search is over. Arkeyn Steel Records brings back to light the entire catalog of one of the finest Metal bands from Missouri. The Arkeyn Steel release includes the entire “Shock The System” private CD (1993), the entire “Peace By Peace” demo (1991) plus the band’s “Floodgate” unreleased demo (1999). Get ready to satisfy your thirst for Ryche-influenced US Power / Prog Metal under a real shock!

Beyond Reason – A New Reflection CD (Limited to 500 hand numbered copies)
ONLY FIRST 50 COPIES WILL ARRIVE WITH PRO-PRINT PROMO PICTURE!
Beyond Reason from Westchester, New York, USA delivered technical Power / Speed Metal in the vein of early Metal Church, Intruder and Final Assault. It is this fine mixture of raw power with technical elements that makes this band so special. Their two demos released in the early 90s have disappeared ages ago. Arkeyn Steel Records has managed to track down the band, presenting everything they have officially recorded and released plus all their unreleased material on a single CD. “A New Reflection” includes the “…Distant From Reality” demo (1990), the “Beast Of Change” demo (1992) plus 3 unreleased tracks from 1991.

FINALLY! Arkeyn Steel Records brings back to daylight the music of Steel Angel from Bradenton, Florida USA. Their “Inquiete” full length was released back on 1992 only on a hundred cassette copies for family and friends. By this time the band had already split due to the death of their vocalist Jason Flanders on a car accident. This masterpiece will be available first time on CD. Here we got the finest melodic US Power Metal you can imagine, in the vein of Crimson Glory and Heir Apparent, featuring killer vocals and fantastic lead guitar parts. All the songs have been re mastered from scratch and will be presented on a great package featuring never before seen photos, lyrics and info.
