Julian´s Fire es una agrupación colombiana de rock que propone un nuevo proyecto musical inspirado en la retoma de las influencias del rock clásico, valiéndose de diversos medios que hoy en día nos ofrecen los desarrollos tecnológicos, además de unas propuestas nuevas tanto musicales como líricas.

El ave fénix (ave mitológica que renace de sus cenizas) es el emblema de nuestra banda, teniendo en cuenta que el grupo busca retomar el rock purista que se ha ido olvidando con el tiempo y revivirlo. Reencenderlo a todo dar, en el mundo contemporáneo.

Creemos firmemente que una banda de rock debe preocuparse por darle todo, a su público. Su música, sus ideales, sus letras, despertar en el mundo, “pasión”. Pasión identificada con el fuego que nace en nuestro interior, cuando interpretamos nuestras canciones y que deseamos compartir con quienes nos escuchan.

Nuestros temas y nuestra música están inspirados en la gente, en nuestras vivencias, en nuestra realidad, y por lo tanto están dirigidas a todos aquellos que la quieran oír y disfrutar.

Si bien es cierto nuestros temas se escuchan en español y en inglés, pensamos que la música no tiene fronteras, no tiene idioma.

Julian's Fire is a Colombian rock band founded on February of 2010 at Bogotá city by Julian Sanchez (composer, lead singer and rhythmic guitarrits), who wanted to propose a new musical project inspired on the comeback of classic rock’s influences which have been withering across time , and bring it to a contemporaneous world by using several means that are offered nowadays by technological developments; besides some new lyrical and musical proposals. In order to do this he joined Andres Osorio, a virtuous guitar player who had been working on progressive rock projects, and asked him to work on harmonization while he took care of the lyrics and the melodic lines.

The Phoenix (a mythological bird that rises from its ashes) it’s the emblem of our band, taking into account that the group is looking retake the purist rock that has been forgotten and revive it. Rekindle it with effort, in the contemporaneous world.

We strongly believe that a rock band should worry about giving it all to its public, its music, ideals and lyrics, and awake passion in the world. A passion that is identified with the fire that grows inside of us when we play our songs, and that we wish to share with those who listen to us. Our topics and our music are inspired on people, on our own livings, on our reality and therefore it’s directed to all of those who want to hear it and enjoy it. Even if it’s true that our songs are produced in Spanish and in English we believe that music has no boundaries, has no language.
“it’s language is universal”.

Metal Blade Records history by Dan Slessor:
Founded upon owner Brian Slagel's enduring drive to find great bands and get their music out to as many people as possible, since 1982 Metal Blade has brought wave after wave of powerful, innovative, and often genre-defining music to the ever-hungry metal masses. It is this ethos that has seen Metal Blade build up a stunning and diverse catalogue, weather the various storms facing any independent label, and in an age of declining record sales boast the most successful years of its existence as it strides into its fourth decade.

What perhaps makes this achievement all the more notable is the fact that Slagel never even intended to start a label. Working in an LA record store and writing for various publications, Slagel was acutely aware that many great bands in the local metal scene were being ignored, and he decided to release a compilation of tracks drawn from these ranks. "There were a lot of really good bands and I was just bummed out that nobody could hear them. It just seemed like I could help them out and have some fun at the same time, and that compilation was the first Metal Massacre," he states. Collating tracks from then unknown bands including Ratt, Bitch, Cirith Ungol, and Metallica amongst others, the compilation sold out immediately. "How important is Metal Blade to our career? They're only the reason we are enjoying the worldwide success we have today," states Metallica's James Hetfield. "Without Brian's openness to some raunchy teens with a crap sounding cassette tape we would be who knows where, and playing who knows what!" With the popularity of the tape spurring Slagel on, the first seeds of Metal Blade were sown. "After the success of those compilations I just started putting out records of bands that I was friends with, but without ever really intending it to be a label at all," he explains. "After I put out four or five releases I started to feel like something was happening, and I decided to quit the record store and quit college and see where it went."

Battling through the first few lean years, when the label consisted solely of Slagel working out of his mom's poorly ventilated garage in the San Fernando Valley, it gradually grew in both revenue and stature. Within a few years Metal Blade would go on to release the debuts of Slayer, Armored Saint, Trouble, and Corrosion Of Conformity amongst others, fanning the flames of the burgeoning metal scene and launching careers of bands that would go onto reap global success. "Without Metal Blade, there is a damn good chance we never would've made it out of L.A," says Slayer's Kerry King. "That was the one bit of luck we needed. You can be the most awesome band on the scene, and if no one notices you, you don't catch on. And Brian Slagel is still one of the biggest metalheads I know!" This genuine love and devotion to metal is central to the relationship many of the artists have with Metal Blade, and King Diamond credits much of its relevance and strength to this passion. "I refer to it as having 'boots on the ground'," the mighty Dane states. "It's not like a major label where some people might be into what you're doing but a lot of them just see it as a job – there's a genuine love for metal there. Through staying true to that and doing their own thing they've carved out a very specific niche that they control, and as an artist it's wonderful to be a part of that."over the years. Clearly without those people we couldn't do what we do, and to everyone out there who has helped us along by being a fan we are so very grateful to you."
