Grab Your Copy ofViribus UnitisHERE:Breaking the Austrian album charts with their epic full-lengthViribus Unitisin 2021,DRAGONYmade a statement without a shadow of a doubt. The twelve-track offering is centered around Austrian history but told in an astonishing way never heard before, as the six-piece unveils what "really happened" at the time of the last Habsburg ruler of Austria, emperor Franz Joseph, his wife, empress Sisi, and their son, the troubled Archduke Rudolf.
On the album,DRAGONYare supported by well-known colleagues like Tommy Johansson (SABATON, MAJESTICA, SYMPHONY OF TRAGEDY), Tomas Svedin (SYMPHONY OF TRAGEDY), Michele Guaitoli (VISIONS OF ATLANTIS) and Georg Neuhauser (SERENITY) - just to name a few. Mixing and mastering onViribus Unitiswas handled by Sebastian "Seeb" Levermann ofORDEN OGANin his Greenman Studios in Germany.
