Beloved by tastemakers and the underground alike, the London-based metal trio URNE has today released a nine-minute-plus undulating epic, “Harken The Waves,” featuring guest vocals from Mastodon’s Troy Sanders. On the track, Sanders and URNE frontman Joe Nally’s voices blend into a powerful duet that crests and crashes like the song itself. The new single comes alongside a music video, available to view below.
Frontman Joe Nally comments on the new single:
“We feel this is one of the best songs we’ve ever written. On top of that, we were lucky enough to have Grammy-winning metal icon Troy Sanders, from the legendary Mastodon, lend his vocal talents. We’ve grown up listening to Troy and watching Troy live, so having someone like him not only appear, but take on such a significant role in the song, elevating it to another level, means a lot.”

Over the course of two studio albums plus a touring schedule taking in key festival appearances, including Download in the UK, URNE continually redefine the world of epic arena metal, showing that heavy music can also be laden with atmosphere and intent.
URNE embark on a headline run across Germany and France this September, in addition to a newly announced headline performance at London’s Camden Assembly. Then, in December, URNE join Orange Goblin as part of the latter’s UK farewell tour.
