Seductive, Style, Monumental - The three words that describes the swedish band Eleine. They’re now releasing a new album Until The End! Worldwide release on February 23rd. In late 2011 Eleine’s front figure, Madeleine Liljestam began working with Cardiac Records. A year later, main songwriter/singer and guitarist, Rikard Ekberg joined the roster.
The end of 2013 proved to be very notable as they found three musicians that completed the band; David Eriksson (drums), Sebastian Berglund (keyboard), and Andreas Mårtensson (bass). The band released their first single along with a music video in April, 2014 named "Gathering Storm". This was followed by a second single, “Land Beyond Sanity” in March a year later. April 2015 saw the release of Eleine’s self-titled debut album by Cardiac Records/Universal.
Eleine’s music is described as heavy symphonic metal with a unique and elegant spin. While performing on stage, they never fail to deliver a show that captivates the audience by seducing them and striking them with a massive sense of wonder. When people hear Eleine they also identify the name with an alternative model. Beyond being the lead singer of the band, Madeleine has been on the cover of Scandinavian Tattoo Magazine and models for several large alternative companies. With a combination of modeling and music, Eleine define themselves as seductive, stylish, and monumental.
The symphonic metal band has grown a lot in a short period of time. Eleine have already shared the stage with Moonspell, Darkane, W.A.S.P, Europe, Raubtier and performed at numerous popular festivals such as Sweden Rock Festival and Gefle Metal Festival.
In early 2016, Eleine took a new turn when the band and Cardiac Records went separate ways. In June of the same year they released their single "Break Take Live" along with a music video that was well received by critics and fans. They also went on a successful European tour alongside Moonspell and The Foreshadowing.
In the beginning of 2017 Madeleine and Rikard started their own record label, Algoth Records, and began working with the renowned label Black Lodge Records and Sound Pollution Distribution. In 2017 Eleine played several successful shows such as Gefle Metal Festival, Svedala Rock and Rock It Festival.
This fall Eleine released a new single, "Hell Moon (We Shall Never Die)" before they went on tour in Sweden for two weeks with the legendary W.A.S.P. After the tour, the band was invited to Japan for the very first time where they played the Loud & metal Mania festival in Tokyo.
