ABOUT THE BAND
Los Angeles–based cinematic hard rockers EDGE OF PARADISE have carved out a unique space in the heavy music scene with their fusion of thunderous riffs, soaring vocals, electronic textures, and immersive storytelling. Fronted by singer and visual artist Margarita Monet, the band has released acclaimed albums including Universe (2019), The Unknown (2021), and Hologram (2023), now Prophecy (2025) and has performed across more than 30 countries, touring with powerhouses like Lacuna Coil, Delain, Symphony X, DragonForce, Amaranthe and more.
Their latest studio album, Prophecy (Napalm Records, 2025), has been released to rave reviews worldwide, hailed as the band’s most ambitious and explosive work to date. Co-produced with Mike Plotnikoff (Nita Strauss, Apocalyptica, Daughtry, Three Days Grace) and mixed/mastered by Jacob Hansen (Amaranthe, Arch Enemy, Katatonia, Delain, Evergrey), Prophecy introduces 8-string guitars for the first time, delivering unmatched firepower and intensity. Lyrically and visually, the record confronts the existential crisis of “The Singularity”—the fateful moment when machines surpass the human mind. Yet beyond technology, Prophecy asks a deeper question: what does it truly mean to be human. Balanced by Monet’s vulnerable, thought-provoking lyricism and striking artwork featured on the cover and accompanying book.
Expanding their vision beyond music, EDGE OF PARADISE bring their futuristic universe to life through a graphic novel series, which deepens the albums’ narratives and visual world, making the band’s artistry a truly multidimensional experience. The album’s lead single, “Death Note”, has quickly become a fan favorite, pairing heavy riffs with soaring hooks that urge listeners to break free from technological confines and reconnect with their humanity. Directed by Monet, the official video immerses viewers in elaborate sets, cinematic effects, and a narrative that blurs the lines between music and film.
With their ambitious creative scope, relentless touring, and expanding universe of music, visuals, and storytelling, EDGE OF PARADISE continue to stand at the forefront of modern rock—inviting fans worldwide to step into their world where music, art, philosophy, and emotion collide.
