But yet they have a strong European metal feel.  Having released 3 records prior to "New World Disorder" "Walk Across Fire" in 2003 " (Legion Of Doom);  "RAW" (Mausoleum Records) produced by Jack Frost; "Rude Rebel Brotherhood"  (Locomotive Music) produced
by Chris Caffery "Savatage, TSO". New World Disorder was produced by Luigi Stefanini in Italy in November &  December of 2011. "We were looking for a different sound” stated drummer Luca Cerardi. “We had great success  with Chris Caffery and Jack Frost. But the band was at a turning point. We wanted to do something different.
I am very happy with the way the record came out”.

 Merendine which formed in 1995 as a five piece have etched their niche on the metal scene in Italy. In 2010 with the departure of guitarist David Bisson, the band stood as a four piece creating a different element that transcended into a new sound and a new outlook. "You can't stop progression stated Zanda  (Vocals)" We just became tighter and stronger as a four piece. We are a family, we made a strong album. That alone is a testament to what we can do together”. "I'm proud of it and nothing will change that" Guitarist "Luca Sigers Securo" and Bassist Dario Bianchi stated "This record is what we're proud of" Luigi outdid himself and made something brilliant”. “Having endorsements with Vic-Firth, D'Adarrio, Evans, Planet Waves and  Paiste has also helped us stated drummer Luca Cerardi.


 Merendine toured last winter as direct support for Doro Pesch in Europe. They had a 4 week run which brought  them through Germany, Spain, France, The Czech Republic, Poland, Italy and Switzerland. The band also toured with Krypteria and Doro prior in 2008. The band did off festival dates with Motorhead in 2009 as well. Fans in Europe and North America have embraced the band. Drawing inspiration is something that every band needs to develop. No one knew that better than Luigi Stefanini
. Merendine signed a worldwide management deal with Skateboard Marketing Ltd.  in New York in December of 2011. They are gearing up for a full Summer European tour after the release.


Audio will be posted on the bands official Facebook page and web site on June 1st.
