CORONATUS stands for double-female-fronted-metal from Germany: The never before seen combination of outstanding singer Carmen R. Lorch (formerly named Schäfer) with her soprano voice (guest vocalist for Illuminate and Brainstorm amongst others) and rock singer Lisa Lasch defines new standarts in their genre.

They also had their live debuts already a.o. on big festivals like the Metal Female Voices Fest 2009 with an execellent live presentation. The new album " Fabula Magna" will be in stores in December through Massacre Records.
