GLADENFOLD – third album trailer released

The Finnish Melodic-Death/Power-Metal newcomers GLADENFOLD are going to release their new studio album, “When Gods Descend”,  on May 24th, via REAPER ENTERTAINMENT.

Recently, the band has released the first single titled ‘Brothers’ right in time for the pre-order start.
The song can be heard and watched in the form of a music video over on YouTube:

The video was filmed on 23 February 2019 in Marttila (Finland) by Tomi Uusitupa who did the post-production duties as well.

The band states:
“Brothers” is a straight-forward power metal tune with uplifting melodies and catchy chorus, enriched with melodic death metal vibes and symphonic elements.
In other words, it includes all the essential features for a typical Gladenfold song, presented in less than 4 minutes.
Thus, we obviously felt it is a good choice for a single/music video, and a great opportunity to introduce our style for those who have not heard of us yet!

On the upcoming album, the band explores new sonic territories with ambitious musical scale and production, while refining their core based on the distinct combination of Melodic-Death and Power-Metal. The album encompasses everything from the softest ballad, through concise and crushing pieces, to longer epics that draw you in for the long haul.

The album was recorded in many places, but mixed and mastered at Noise For Fiction Studios in Lieto (Finland) by producer Joona Lukala. The stunning cover artwork was created by Anders Öström (BLIND STARE).

More Info:
GLADENFOLD is a group of five, out of Turku, Finland, rooted in Melodic Death Metals aggression and energy, borrowing the grandeur of Power Metal and Symphonic Metal. GLADENFOLD creates an inherently Nordic-sounding blend of metal music, basing itself especially within the Finnish metal tradition (inspired by for example NortherChildren of Bodom and Ensiferum), with German Power Metal (such as Blind Guardian, Gamma Ray and Freedom Call) still heavily influencing the overall sound.
GLADENFOLD serves roaring drums, tight and agile rhythm guitars, soaring guitar and keyboard solos, ferocious growling mixed with multi-layered singing as the foundation, but incorporates skilfully crafted keyboards,elegant classical guitars, the majestic symphonic orchestra and choir for even grander sonic landscapes

GLADENFOLD are:
Esko Itälä – vocals & acoustic guitars
Matias Knuuttila – guitars
Toke Fønskov Gerdts – guitars
Lauri Itälä – drums
Paavali Pouttu – keyboards
