Tales of the Old: New single titled 'Beware'

The band from Greece has presented their new track, titled 'Beware'. A track that will be included on the album 'The Book Of Chaos' and will be released on September 17, 2021 through Pride & Joy Music.

The band was founded in 2010 by keyboardist Μιχάλης Τζανάκης, who is the main composer and arranger of their music. His love for Symphonic Metal and bands like Rhapsody, Nightwish, Therion, Haggard led him to create a band, with the aim of serving this genre from a darker side. Classical orchestrations are interwoven with lyrics inspired by the Medieval Era, making the music of Tales of the Old sound like the perfect soundtrack for dark times and the eternal battle between Good and Evil.

Beware: A track with significant collaborations

After releasing their first self-release demo "Beware" in 2010, Τζανάκης decided to take the next step and collaborate with producer Bob Katsionis (formerly of Firewind). The two of them created the band's sound as can be heard on their EP, 'The Passageway From Hell To Earth’.

The band's first album, "The Book Of Chaos", became a reality in recent years! A work that was created and marked piece by piece, through toil and endless sacrifices! A work that would never have taken flesh and bone without the contribution and hard work of the only possible co-producer for Tales Of The Old, the mastermind of Power Metal in Greece, Bob Katsionis!
