Moonlight Prophecy announce Nov 10th release of "Vanquished"


Moonlight Prophecy Mere months after the release of the Eternal Oblivion EP, MOONLIGHT PROPHECY is back with their debut full-length album VANQUISHED. The album consists of 10 shred heavy, yet hooky tracks and is recommended for fans of Dragonforce, and Nevermore.

Moonlight Prophecy is a thrash/Power metal band formed in March of 2017 after the founder, Lawrence Wallace decided to rename his instrumental shred project “Lawrence’s Creation” and move more toward vocal oriented music. He is joined with bass player, Mika Mage who he has previously worked with in other projects. They are mainly a studio band because the four of them live in all different parts of the world (The USA, Brazil and Norway). They had Raphael Gazal and Persou M. In as session musicians for vocals and drums, with Dustin Hughes as a guest singer on the track Eternal Oblivion. Moonlight Prophecy, aside from branching off from a previous instrumental shred project is a very new band geared mainly toward thrash, power, and progressive metal with elements of other styles also. Fast crazy drums, ripping solos and lots of melody await the listener with this powerful new project!



Past Praise for Moonlight Prophecy:

"Wallace seamlessly blends classical music inspired guitar playing with the aggressive melodies of modern thrash metal with stunning results. This is what I imagine it would sound like if Dragonforce's Herman Li joined Testament"-Glacially Musical

"You could do far worse things than giving Eternal Oblivion a spin with your eyes closed to get a well-deserved break from a stressful world bound to drive you insane."-No Clean Singing

"Mostly instrumental, this three-track is loaded with shredding riffs, epic guitarsolos and a massive drum sound, all coming with a gloomy atmosphere. People have said that this compares to Nevermore meets Testament and I'm not going to disagree with that."-Merchants of Air
