ROTNS Announces CHAPTER 04: RED FALCON SUPER BATTLE! NEO PARIS WAR!

The super saiyan infused metal band from Paris is back at it again! Rise of the Northstar is back with a brand new single & album announcement. The Parisians have been making waves in the metal world for their groovy songs, but also deep lore inspired by retro anime like Dragon Ball or Hokuto no Ken. Vitia, the vocalist of the band is known for his distinct rap inspired harsh vocals and they have plenty of songs that stand out like Here comes the boom or Demonstrating my Saiya Style.

After a couple years of hiatus, ROTNS has been pumping out singles in anticipation of their upcoming album, one featuring prominent metalcore band LANDMVRKS from Marseilles on the track Back to Basics. They have just released a third single for this cycle, titled A.I.R. Max and is a big return to form for the band. Featuring a big & bouncy riff, with French lyrics interjected in some verses, this is still an evolution for the band, but does feel more familiar than the other singles, as it seems the band is broadening their sound all the while preserving what makes them special.

The band has also announced their fourth studio record, titled CHAPTER 04: RED FALCON SUPER BATTLE! NEO PARIS WAR!! A grandiose and extreme title for a band which pushes a noisy & excessive sound blended with anime influences. The album will be released on November 14th 2025. After the releases of Back To Basics, Neo Paris as well as A.I.R. MAX, the band is already demonstrating that their next album is both a return to form but also an evolution of their sound, which is not only very brutal but also very recognizable. Furthermore, it cements their place in the big French Metal Scene with bands like LANDMVRKS as well as Gojira. The big anime boys are back, Rise Of The Northstar are about to unleash a new album that will have our heads banging, for a while! Épique est l'équipe!
