Dynazty is a Swedish power metal band from Stockholm, Sweden.
History
Dynazty was established by Rob Love Magnusson and John Berg in 2007. Soon members George Härnsten Egg and Joel Fox Apelgren joined in. After a few gigs with various vocalists, they found the singer and frontman Nils Molin through Myspace in Spring of 2008. Since then, Dynazty has released six full-length albums and has toured in Sweden and internationally.
The band took part in Melodifestivalen 2011 with the song "This Is My Life", a metal cover of the previous winner (Melodifestivalen 2010) Anna Bergendahl. The band also competed in Melodifestivalen 2012 with the song "Land of Broken Dreams" in the fourth round in Malmö on 25 February 2012. The song went on to "second chance" round but failed to make it to the Final 10.
The band released its third album Sultans of Sin on 29 February 2012. According to the bassist of the band, Joel Fox Apelgren, the album was produced by Peter Tägtgren and they have also co-written one song with Chris Laney and one song with Nicke Borg. The album has an extended solo version of Bastards of Rock & Roll and a bonus track called Madness on the Japanese edition as well.[1]
In 2013, Dynazty signed a record deal with Spinefarm Records for their fourth studio album "Renatus". In 2016 the band released another album, "Titanic Mass".
On July 21, 2018, it was announced that Dynazty signed to AFM Records.[2] On July 27 the single "Breathe with Me" was released. The sixth album "Firesign" will be out on September 28, 2018.
