CRYSTAL BALL – Crysteria [Limited Digipak +2] (2022)

Swiss melodic metal / hard rock outfit CRYSTAL BALL will release their new studio album “Crysteria” on January 28 via Massacre Records. The band’s 11th album will be available as a CD Digipak with exclusive bonus tracks. Ronnie Romero (Rainbow, Lords Of Black, The Ferrymen) joins the band as a guest vocalist on the song ‘Call Of The Wild,’ and Crystal Ball‘s longtime friends and label mates Jaded Heart join them for a band duet on the song ‘Crystal Heart.’
“Crysteria” was produced, mixed and mastered by Stefan Kaufmann, who also contributed additional lead guitars to four songs on the album.
“Crysteria” opens a new chapter in CRYSTAL BALL’s history. In their 3rd decade, the band is far from just repeating itself, and you can find new, fresh, and energetic elements in their music.

CRYSTAL BALL took its time during the pandemic-related break to write lots of new material, so they could choose from over 30 songs for the new album. New guitar player Peter Berger also contributed many songs and ideas to the recording. The album features the vocal duet “Call Of The Wild” with Ronnie Romero whom the band got to know at a festival in Switzerland in 2018.

This digipak version of the album also contains the band duet “Crystal Heart” with the guys from Jaded Heart. This song was written by members of both bands. As they are friends for a long time, CRYSTAL BALL invited Jaded Heart as special guest on their planned headliner tour in 2022.
