El panorama del metal europeo sigue demostrando una envidiable salud de hierro, e Italia se apunta un nuevo acierto con el catálogo de Rockshots Records. El nuevo sencillo de Aletheya, titulado “Chasing The Sun”, es una auténtica declaración de intenciones musicales. El tema funciona como el segundo adelanto oficial de su esperado larga duración debut, Chance To Reborn, programada para el 18 de septiembre de 2026.
Estructura Musical y Producción
Desde el primer acorde, “Chasing The Sun” abraza al oyente con una producción moderna y nítida firmada por Stefano Morabito en los prestigiosos 16th Cellar Studio. No se trata de un simple ejercicio de nostalgia; el tema combina la velocidad clásica del euro-power con arreglos sinfónicos profundos y pizcas de metal progresivo.
La canción arranca con una sólida base rítmica comandada por una batería atronadora, abriendo paso a riffs de guitarra altamente melódicos. El estribillo es masivo, de esos que están diseñados para corearse en festivales. Destaca especialmente el rango dinámico de las voces, que logran transmitir tanto la agresividad del género como una enorme dosis de emotividad limpia.
Lírica y Mensaje Conceptual
Temáticamente, la banda describe el corte como el corazón de su sonido. Lejos de las letras de fantasía y dragones recurrentes en el género, “Chasing The Sun” aborda de manera cruda y poética la resiliencia, la determinación y la búsqueda implacable de la esperanza en caminos de incertidumbre. Musicalmente transforma la lucha personal en una épica victoria sonora, convirtiéndose en un himno de superación que define la identidad de la agrupación.
- Lo mejor: El equilibrio perfecto entre velocidad instrumental y ganchos melódicos memorables.
- Para fans de: Stratovarius, Avantasia, Helloween, Sonata Arctica y Beast in Black.
Semblanza de la Banda: Aletheya
Aletheya es una agrupación italiana de power metal melódico nacida de la unión de músicos experimentados dentro de la escena del metal extremo y melódico europeo. Su sonido rinde tributo al espíritu glorioso del power metal de finales de los noventa y principios de los dos mil, pero revitalizado con una visión musical moderna, pesada y vanguardista.
El nombre de la banda, derivado del concepto griego de la verdad o el desvelamiento (Alétheia), refleja la honestidad lírica y conceptual de su propuesta. En abril de 2026, la banda captó la atención internacional tras anunciar oficialmente su firma con el sello especializado Rockshots Records, un hito que cimentó el camino para su álbum debut Chance To Reborn.
La solidez de Aletheya se sostiene sobre una alineación de primer nivel en el circuito internacional:
- Gianni Carcione (Voz): Dotado de un rango vocal dinámico capaz de alternar entre pasajes melódicos sumamente emotivos y la potencia operística exigida por el género.
- Francesco Menale (Guitarras): Encargado de tejer los complejos riffs, armonías y veloces solos que fungen como el motor instrumental del grupo.
- Fabrizio Sclano (Bajo): Aporta la profundidad y el grosor idóneos en las frecuencias bajas, amalgamando la agresión de las guitarras con la batería.
- David Folchitto (Batería): Un veterano y pilar absoluto de la batería en Italia, ampliamente reconocido a nivel mundial por su demoledor trabajo previo con titanes como Fleshgod Apocalypse y Stormlord. Su impecable técnica aporta una fuerza indomable y una velocidad quirúrgica a las composiciones melódicas de la banda.
Con un arsenal técnico impecable y una propuesta temática basada en convertir el sufrimiento en fortaleza, Aletheya emerge en la escena contemporánea no solo como una promesa, sino como una realidad dispuesta a reclamar su lugar en la vanguardia del metal melódico.

Although “Chance To Reborn” represents the band’s debut full-length album, Aletheya brings together years of experience gained across the Italian and international metal scene.The line-up features David Folchitto (Stormlord, Kaledon, Embryo, Fleshgod Apocalypse) on drums, Francesco Menale (Risen Crow) on guitars, and Gianni Carcione (A.T.T., Concept) on vocals, Fabrizio Sclano (Ivory Moon) on bass, combining technical expertise, compositional depth, and a strong artistic identity shaped through decades of musical activity.Aletheya’s sound blends soaring melodies, powerful rhythmic structures, dynamic vocals and refined guitar work, balancing the grandeur of traditional European power metal with symphonic textures, neoclassical influences and progressive sensibilities. Deeply inspired by the German power metal tradition of the ’80s and ’90s, the band also draws from Scandinavian melodic metal, progressive metal and, at times, darker tonal shades connected to classic death metal influences. Their songwriting reflects a conscious effort to bridge the genre’s roots with a modern and personal artistic perspective.Lyrically, Aletheya explores themes of resilience, rebellion, inner conflict, and personal awareness, transforming human struggles and emotional tension into songs driven by determination, introspection, and hope. Rather than relying exclusively on fantasy imagery, the band seeks to establish a deeper emotional connection with the listener through themes rooted in direct human experience.Conceived as more than a simple collection of songs, “Chance To Reborn” represents both an arrival point and a new beginning for the band: the synthesis of past musical experiences and the foundation of a precise artistic identity aimed at bringing melodic power metal into a more contemporary and emotionally resonant dimension.With their debut album, Aletheya position themselves as a new force within the modern melodic power metal landscape, combining experience, vision, and a profound respect for the genre’s past and future.-30— ASHER MEDIA RELATIONS Jon Asher – Music Publicist #.514.581.5780 jon[@]ashermediarelations[.]com Facebook @AsherMediaRelations Instagram @AsherMedia Tweet @AsherMedia |
