Volucrine - ETNA
Vocalist Jupe Velin couldn't contain his excitement, stating, "Hard to believe we're finally here!" No kidding, Jupe! After diving into the depths of uncertainty during the Covid pandemic, Volucrine emerged with an album that's a diamond forged under extreme conditions. Borrowing its name from a volcano, ETNA piles up pressure, fire, and ash, and now, these stories and emotions are erupting with explosive force.
The album is a modern metal masterpiece, exploring deeper layers with the power of 7-string guitars and lower tunings. The result? A solid entity where brooding alternative metal lays the foundation for personal and varied vocal arrangements. Mixing elements of progressive metal, melodic death metal, and metalcore with the conventions of pop and rock, Volucrine crafted a diverse soundscape.
The magic behind the scenes? Bassist Joni Kyynäräinen from KyySounds took charge of the recordings and mixing, creating the best-sounding ensemble in Volucrine's discography. Mastering by MIRO MASTERING ensures the album crushes like a metalhead's heart when they hear a killer riff.
Volucrine's Origins:
Founded in 2009, Volucrine is more than a band; it's a force of nature that grew up by the cold Kymijoki river, shadows of Kouvola's concrete structures. The mission? To tell stories of relatable emotions and challenges, reflecting and articulating humane themes beyond the borders of pain.
