Power Metal / Melodic Heavy Metal super project Heavy Metal Princess Academy has officially dropped their music video covering “Nova Era”, the legendary anthem originally performed by Angra.
For metal historians: “Nova Era” is a defining track from Angra’s 2001 album Rebirth, a technical and symphonic power metal benchmark built on rapid double-kick drumming, neoclassical guitar runs, and sky-high vocals. It is one of the most respected songs in global power metal canon.
Now, Japan answers. Heavy Metal Princess Academy brings together elite musicians from Japan’s modern female metal wave:
-
Drums: MARI (Mary’s Blood)
-
Guitar: YUI (Cyntia)
-
Bass: SAWA (Aldious / FIRST CONTACT)
-
Princess Vocals: HINA / CHIO / KEYKA
This is not a casual cover unit — this is a technical showcase featuring musicians who helped define Japan’s 2010s all-female heavy metal resurgence.
