Sacramento, California-based power metal group Helion Prime have released an official lyric video for the track \u2018Urth\u2019, which can be viewed below.<\/p>\n

Helion Prime issue second full-length studio album Terror Of The Cybernetic Space Monster<\/em> on August 31st, 2018 through AFM Records.<\/p>\n

Terror Of The Cybernetic Space Monster<\/em> was mixed and mastered by Lasse Lammert at LSD Studio in L\u00fcbeck, Germany.<\/p>\n

Rhythm guitarist and founder Jason Aschraft commented: \u201cI wasn\u2019t sure where I was going when writing this album. As fans who follow us closely know, it\u2019s been a bumping two years for us since the release of our debut. We are back and fully inspired. This album focuses more on human nature and our battle with the good and evil within ourselves. I did not plan this when starting the album but that is where it naturally evolved. I am very pleased with the result and hope you are all as equally excited.\u201d<\/p>\n

Terror Of the Cybernetic Space Monster<\/em> marks the debut of vocalist Sozos Michael.<\/p>\n

Sozos Michael stated: \u201cWorking on this album has been an incredibly rewarding experience. While Jason had a clear vision as to what this album would shape up to be as the principal songwriter, he was always open to my ideas on vocal lines and lyrics. Our collaboration went very smoothly and it definitely shows on the final product.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe is the kind of singer I have always dreamed of working with,\u201d reckons Jason Ashcraft. \u201cNot only are his vocal skills top notch but he understands and knows what the music needs. Writing together for this album was a breeze and I hardly had to ask for any rewrites. Often he would send me ideas that was exactly what I was thinking. I am thrilled to work with someone like that and can\u2019t wait to see what we accomplish together.\u201d<\/p>\n

Unleash The Archers frontwoman Brittney Slayes guests on the title track.<\/p>\n
