A new Satanic Panic is on its way! SATANIC NORTH is what happens when you let two well-known Finnish metal artists stare into the abyss for too long: Petri Lindroos (Ensiferum, Warmen) and Janne Parviainen (Ensiferum) are well-traveled, experienced musicians who have stared into said abyss long enough for the abyss to stare back with interest at some point.
The selftitled debut album is out now worldwide and can be ordered on Vinyl & CD here: https://satanicnorth.reaper-band.shop/
The band states:
“Satanic North has breached the gates and is out from the darkness to spread the Hatred and Blasphemy to the world.
We are really looking forward hearing your thoughts about our debut album.
Check out also the new video for Village.”
To celebrate the release, the band presents the third music video for the brandnew song “Village”.

The album came together quickly and effortlessly, exorcized and recorded during an unholy summer – which of course also shows how urgently this band was needed. “We kept everything very simple and practical. We didn’t want to waste too many takes to keep the songs raw and natural,” Petri explains. “The mix was completed by the winter solstice and now this beast lies in wait, ready to be unleashed.” This will happen in April 2024: Here is an album storming towards us in the sign of hell, delivering an unrelenting, extreme approach to a genre that has perhaps become a little soft and tender of late. “We all have the same vision of black metal, and that vision is: stop the midtempo, let’s bring back the blastbeats,” Petri chants.The cover artwork was created by Samuli Ponsimaa, FINNTROLL’s guitarist and graphic mastermind.
