WOLFHEART
Melodic death metal powerhouse WOLFHEART released their latest full-length studio album, 'King of the North', in September 2022. Each song on 'King of the North' is dedicated to a different story of Finnish mythology – underlined by WOLFHEART’s grand, crushing songwriting and production.
“The King”, for instance, tells the tale of the forest god with horns and pianos accompanying heavy guitar riffs and solos, before raising the energy levels once more on the relentless “Cold Flame” featuring Karl Sanders.
“Ancestor” is the album’s most frostbitten anthem, unleashing WOLFHEART’s acclaimed brand of crushing blast beasts and cutting-edge vocal performances alongside guest Jesse Leach of Killswitch Engage.
'King of the North' is a true masterpiece of melodic death metal, crafted with loads of attention to detail and intricate mythology-driven storytelling – showcasing WOLFHEART at never-before-heard artistic levels!
WOLFHEART are:
Tuomas Saukkonen - guitar, vocals
Joonas Kauppinen - drums
Lauri Silvonen - bass, vocals
Vagelis Karzis - guitar, vocals
THULCANDRA
Death/black metal mainstays THULCANDRA released their latest studio album, 'A Dying Wish', to great acclaim in 2021.
Since originating with Obscura mastermind Steffen Kummerer in 2003, the band has become an indispensable protagonist in the European extreme metal-sphere that reaches way back to the magnificent origins of their genres. 'A Dying Wish' was produced at Unisound Studio by Dan Swanö, keeping the black flame of Jon Nödtveidt alive and worthy.
'A Dying Wish' transports the listener right into an icy soundscape of a never ending, severe winter. With 10 blood-freezing tracks delivering clashing guitar riffs, epic downtempo moments driven by atmospheric acoustic guitars and rapid outbursts of dark and raspy screams, THULCANDRA created another record that continues the great legacy of true death metal.
THULCANDRA on 'A Dying Wish' are:
Steffen Kummerer – guitar, vocals
Mariano Delastik – guitar
Christian Kratzer – bass
Alessandro Delastik – drums
