News: Signum Regis announce departure of Jota Fortinho

Jota Fortinho, who has been with the band since 2019, has decided to leave Signum Regis for various personal reasons. This was both sad and surprising news for us, but his decision is understandable. We remain in touch as friends and may collaborate again on an occasional basis.
We’d like to thank Jota for everything he has contributed to the band and the legacy he leaves behind. On the albums he recorded – Undivided, The Seal of a New World, and Flag of Hope – you’ll find some of the highlights of our catalog, and we’re proud of what we achieved together. We wish him all the best in his future endeavors!
So, what’s next? We have a song called “Never Surrender,” and that’s exactly what we’ll do! We’re sticking to our guns, and Signum Regis will carry on. You can expect some truly exciting news in the coming weeks and months. The plans are already in place, and we’re working hard to make them happen. Stay tuned!
Signum Regis has released a cover of Metallica’s “All Nightmare Long”. It’s not a typical cover, but rather a reimagined version by Signum Regis for the modern metal listener. It diverges from the original by condensing its intensity into a more concise and dynamic format. With a reimagined structure and arrangements, this version offers something unique while still honoring the spirit of the original. The band’s intent was not to compete with Metallica’s brilliance, but to celebrate their legacy through a new artistic interpretation.
