AREA51 was features on the cover of the latest issue of German music magazine Rock City. There is an interview of Yoichiro Ishino, and a full color advertisement. All you German fans out there, please check it out!

Yoichiro Ishino has joined Eizo Sakamoto, famous singer of ANTHEM and ANIMETAL, in his new solo album as guitar player and arranger.
Seven out of fourteen songs are done by Yoichiro, where the remaining songs are handled by 2 other guitar players. These seven songs are loaded with heavy metal guitar work, lots of shredding, which shows a different shade of his musicality compared to AREA51.
The album will be released in Japan on August 26th.

Our recent albums Daemonicus will be distributed throughout the world through CD BABY. Thanks to this, people in the USA will be able to purchase our CD at major retail stores (Amazon, Best Buy, etc.), and those in North/South America, Europe, Asia and Oceania will be able to place local orders.

Furthermore, there are plans to distribute our album through music distribution and Ringtone sites, such as Rhapsody, Amazon, Napster, Verzion, and Liquid Digital Media.  Don't forget you can already find our material on iTunes Store as well.

We're thrilled by this opportunity to allow people around the world easier access to our album.  Digitial distribution is cool, but actual CD with gorgeous artwork is even better, so please listen to our music with an actual CD in your hands!
