Suotana Announces New Album + New Single Released

Suotana-cover
BIOGRAPHY
SUOTANA is a Finnish Melodic Death Metal band that was formed in 2005. It started as a Ville Rautio's solo project which developed during 2012-2013 to a six-man-band.

Suotana released their first demo called ''Forgotten Soil Of This Land'' in February of 2014. Consisting of just two songs with a total play-time of just under 10 minutes, "Forgotten Soil of this Land" is a powerful and compelling demo. The title track of the release "Forgotten Soil of This Land" replicates a soundscape of the frozen scenes of the Finnish Arctic circle draped in the light of the Northern Lights perfectly in a frenzied and frigid song that sears across your senses. "The Reasons" starts out with a more melancholic sound and a more sombre pace, strongly bringing to mind bands such as CATAMENIA circa their "Location Cold" album, and perhaps at a stretch even elements from bands such as WINTERSUN and CHILDREN OF BODOM shine through.

 Incorporating Symphonic and Black Metal elements into their music. Starting out nine years ago as a bit of jamming between the two guitarist, a lineup was finally put together in 2012, resulting in the first serious efforts towards crafting a release, and one can but hope that SUOTANA have now found some measure of stability.

 The band was working on their first full-lenght album which was released November 13th of 2015 a self-financed full-length debut "Frostrealm".

Millennium Finnish metal to yield abundant power metal influences. Very Extreme spending at no point never attempts, and the exemplars is easy to spot from the shaft Catamenia, Kalmah,COB,Norther,etc resembling mainly from time to time higher rääkynäksi are rising Orina songs, and here and there scattered blast beats. Role models for boys in Rovaniemi have embraced the homogeneity In addition, unfortunately, also equal thickness. While initially it would have been excited to belong to the music of a bygone era a touch, please visit our plate assembly in the long run a little numbness. Sometimes a melody or riff gets prick up your ears, but then again, merely the basic will to carry out without a genuine sense of danger. 

As such, "Frostrealmia" can be recommended by absolutely positive factor, however, be read in the Suotana sounds like the name of your band and not from the project and production have been left just the right amount of rosso to highlight the very groovy playing. Nor should we doubt that the Swamps Winnie the listeners to be found especially in the central European sides. Ice still miss the more severe, stabbing winters cold winds, deeper unity in melancholy and madness north. Carried out in an appropriate sense of style progressivity and the daring adventures of otelaudoilla would not be covered by bogs Winnie future harm.

Now with few line-up changes the band is dragging boat through wintry forests of north. SUOTANA have named their 2nd studio album “Land Of The Ending Time”, which will be released on May 25th, 2018 via Reaper Entertainment Europe. The band has also unveiled the album artwork. It was created by Simo Räsänen.


The band states:
“We’re so happy and relieved to finally be able to announce the release of this album. ‘Land of the Ending Time’ represents our band’s current path and the hard work of the past two years. The artwork perfectly reflects the album’s themes and musical atmosphere where the journey through wintry forests shall begin!”


 Released March 29th 2018

Orbit Culture - Redfog (EP - 2018) - Bandcamp Stream


BIOGRAPHY 
In the deep forests of southern Sweden lies the small town of Eksjö where the band Orbit Culture originates from. The idea of the band grew strong within singer & rhythm guitarist Niklas and lead guitarist Maximilian after messing around with some unpolished demos at home. At that time, Maximilian was currently playing with another local band called Abstract Noise, together with Orbit Culture’s fellow drummer Markus Bladh. Maximilian recruited Markus to join his new band, followed by the arrival of Christoffer Olsson on bass guitar. The line-up was now complete.

Shortly after Orbit Culture's inception, the band started to work on their debut EP. The production ended on August 17th, 2013 and Orbit Culture's very first piece of music was released shortly after. All the songs were recorded in what used to be an old power plant in the bands hometown. The EP was mixed and mastered by Niklas himself. Later that year, the band re-released their debut EP, re-mastered with a new bone-crushing artwork.

After some positive feedback and reviews both nationally and internationally the band quickly started working on their first full-length album. Through an intense process of songwriting, recording, mixing and mastering the band finally finished and released their first full-length album called “In Medias Res” on the 23rd of July, 2014. The album concept builds on a war between the race of men and machines. The album is fully packed with epicness and shall leave no one unsatisfied. The concept of the album builds on a war between the race of men and the ancient machines from a world beyond ours.

After a handful of shows promoting the new album and getting their name out there, lead guitarist Maximilian decided to leave the band to pursue other interests. 

The band has already released an EP and 2 albums! Today, Qpril 6th 2018 they’re released another EP by the name of “Redfog”! If that doesn’t count as prolific, I’m honestly not sure what does, this band stays true to their roots while simultaneously stretching their sound into new areas. In doing so, they habitually combine elements of Melodic Death Metal, Groove Metal, Thrash, and straight up Death Metal. Better yet, they execute just about everything they do with a sheen of brilliance.
