Mena Brinno signs with The Netherlands' Dark Balance.

It seems the metal world can welcome a new label: DARK BALANCE, based in The Netherlands.The label wants to support upcoming artists/bands if their quality of music is worth noticing. Since the label is all about metal without any particular subgenre, any band with some Metal roots is welcome. First release will be of the Dutch progressive Rock/Metal band PICTURE OF THE MOON. This Release is produced by Joost van den Broek (AFTER FOREVER) and contains three songs. After their appearance up to the semi-finals during the Metalbattle 2006 PICTURE OF THE MOON is getting known in the club scene in The Netherlands. Release date of the EP with the title 'Ageless Day' is set on the 1st of June 2007.

Besides this DARK BALANCE has also signed Tampa, Florida (USA) based Gothic Rock/Metal act MENA BRINNO. It's a new band set up by KATY DECKER and MARIUS KOZLOWSKI. Female opera vocalist KATY DECKER appeared for many years in the opera houses in the USA, like the Orlando and Atlanta opera. MARIUS KOZLOWSKI – originally of Zabrze, Poland – played in different bands before and was invited for guest participation in COUNCIL OF THE FALLEN. MENA BRINNO will enter the studio this summer to complete their first full length. This release will appear in the second half of 2007, and probably after this MENA BRINNO will go to Europe for a tour.
