UNISONIC – the new super group uniting the legendary heavy rock musicians Michael Kiske
(vocals, ex-Helloween), his former bandmate Kai Hansen (guitars, Gamma Ray, ex
Helloween), Mandy Meyer (guitars, ex-Gotthard, ex-Krokus), Dennis Ward (bass, Pink
Cream 69) and Kosta Zafiriou (drums, Pink Cream 69) is finally unveiling the cover artwork

UNISONIC have signed a record contract with earMUSIC / Edel most recently. “IGNITION”,
the mini album to herald the major longplay output in March, will feature the band’s self titled
anthem “Unisonic”, and the brand new song “My Sanctuary” from the album, a demo
version of the song “Souls Alive” and the Helloween classic “I Want Out” – a live rarity,
performed by the band at Loudpark Festival in Japan October 2011.
UNISONIC´s music is very versatile and shows a broad approach to heavy rock, but never
misses the power and strong, sticking melodies that made all the members famous in the
metal scene in the first place. Says singer Michael Kiske: “It feels great to finally bring the
band to the studio and record the songs we´ve been working on for some time. We took our
time to grow as a real band, but it definitely was worth it and we are very proud of the result!”
Bassist/producer Dennis Ward adds: “We have a bunch of very strong songs and can´t wait
until people can hear them. Everyone in the band is looking very positive into the future.”
The band’s web site www.unisonic.de is also “live” with immediate effect. The extended and
elaborate version of the band’s online home will be launched in January.
