Runes of Magic

BERLIN, September 24, 2010 – Frogster today released the music video for the song, Magic Taborea. The six-member band brings their unique brand of vocal rock into Taborea, the magical world of the MMO Runes of Magic .

After the release of their first albums, A Storm to Come, Hero, and Tribe of Force, the German a capella metal band left their studios in the Frankfurt area to compose their own song for the prize-winning online role-playing game Runes of Magic . The song, entitled Magic Taborea, transports the listener into the magical world of the game and lets them experience fantastic adventures together with heroic warriors. With high production value, the music video skilfully links the real world with virtual reality and gives the metal band the chance to wander the lands of Taborea in person.

The current album, Tribe of Force, which features Magic Taborea, managed to hit the German album charts straight after its release and is full of guest appearances such as Rage guitar hero Victor Smolski and Tony Kakko of Sonata Arctica.
