Age of Artemis is a heavy metal band formed in 2008 in Brasília, and is considered one of the most classic Power Metal groups in Brazil.

The recordings and production process resulted in the creation of the iconic “Overcoming Limits”. With all the exposure in magazines and websites, Age of Artemis was elected the revelation band of the year in 2011, according to specialized websites and magazines.

In 2014, the band’s second album, “The Waking Hour”, was released, which, like the debut, was released in Japan by the record label King Records.
