I turned off the television and sat down at my piano, immediately a song started writing itself before me. “Trust in Love” is a very special song for Matijević he remembers how he wrote the song: “One night after watching the news on television, I was saddened to hear about the pain and the suffering of what the people of North and South Korea are going through. Matijević is the lead singer of the American musical group “Steelheart”, highly popular with Korean fans from their hit song “She’s Gone.” Matijević appeared in numerous Korean TV programs like the ‘Masked Singer’ and ‘Flaming Youth’ and he was in various K- drama soundtracks. L os Angeles, CA – The Korean Cultural Center Los Angeles (KCCLA) joined Miljenko Matijević’s (STEELHEART) upcoming music video “Trust in Love”. Their new sound is modern and edgy while still retaining overtones of Mili’s roots.STEELHEART RELEASE TIMELY AND POWERFUL VIDEO “TRUST IN LOVE” Available Ma(Korean Version). From May to July of 2010, Mili toured worldwide with Manzarek-Krieger, formed by Ray Manzarek and Robby Krieger of The Doors, as their new vocalist.Īlthough Steelheart began as a glam band in the early ‘90s, Mili has transformed Steelheart with their current line-up with Milijenko Matijevic (lead vocals), Joe Pessia (guitars), Marten Andersson (bass), and Mike Humbert (drums) and has turned it away from the glam scene. Mili recorded eight songs for the movie, three of which appeared on the soundtrack including the single “We All Die Young” from his third album, Wait also produced “Wait” reaching #1 in many Asian countries. In 2001, Mili recorded the vocals for Mark Wahlberg’s character in the movie Rock Star also starring Jennifer Aniston. While performing “Dancing in the Fire,” Mili decided to climb a lighting truss, which was improperly secured and caused Milli to have a near fatal accident. Steelheart’s next album Tangled in Reins included songs like “Sticky Side Up” to smooth ballads such as “Mama Don’t You Cry.” Nearing the end of the Tangle in Reins Tour, Slaughter asked Steelheart to perform one last show that took place in Denver. The second single “I’ll Never Let You Go (Angel Eyes)” reached #14 on the billboard charts. The ballad “She’s Gone,” showcasing Matijevic’s incredible vocal range, hit #1 on the International Charts, staying there for 17 weeks. It sold 33,000 albums on its first day in Japan alone, and quickly hit platinum status. Steelheart released their self-titled debut album in 1990. Certainly fans of the band’s first three classic albums will be happy to hear those powerful pipes back in action, but fans of modern hard rock acts like Halestorm, Shinedown, Alter Bridge, and other melodic minded rock heavyweights will find much here to love. On Through Worlds Of Stardust, Miljenko has fused his past, present, and future together, creating an undeniable piece of hard rock music. Love you all we look forward to seeing you on the road,” enthuses Miljenko.Īlthough they were lumped in with the glut of long-haired hard rock bands emerging in the early ’90s, the band was always more forward thinking than their peers and the 2017 version of the band has a contemporary and edgy feel, while still retaining the patented powerful vocals of Miljenko. I truly hope you enjoy this album as it was created from the heart and no corners were cut. “I best describe this album as ‘DEEP, SEXY, LOVING, TWISTED, ROMANTIC, and HUNGRY ROCK’N ROLL.’ The record was recorded throughout parts of the world including a live string section recorded in Stockholm Sweden. They have announced the release of their new album, “Through Worlds Of Stardust,” set for September 15th, 2017 via Frontiers Music Srl. Steelheart is the brainchild of Miljenko (aka Mili) Matijevic whose powerful voice and multi-octave range is the heart and soul of the band.
