Second Album REMNANTS OF RAPTURE out May 23rd
The Canadian power metal band Lycanthro has released a brand-new single and accompanying music video for The Great Masquerade featuring the incredible vocal talents of Laura Guldemond, powerhouse frontwoman of Swiss heavy metal titans Burning Witches. This electrifying track serves as the second single from Lycanthro’s highly anticipated new album Remnants of Rapture, which is set for release May 23rd on Psychomanteum Records.
The Great Masquerade is an epic heavy metal duet showcasing the soaring, dynamic interplay between Lycanthro’s signature sound – a high-energy fusion of power metal, thrash, and traditional heavy metal – and Laura Guldemond’s commanding vocal presence. This song delivers a powerful narrative, weaving grandiose melodies, thunderous riffs, and blistering solos into an unforgettable metal anthem.
An accompanying music video captures the intensity and theatrical essence of the song, with a visually striking aesthetic that brings the lyrics to life. The collaboration between Lycanthro and Guldemond marks a thrilling moment for fans of both bands, as they unite to deliver a song that is both ferocious and anthemic.

About Lycanthro
Lycanthro is an enigmatic power metal band hailing from Ottawa, Canada. Their unique fusion of power, thrash, and traditional metal delivers an epic soundscape that’s as bold as it is unforgettable. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Savatage, W.A.S.P., Blind Guardian and more, Lycanthro proudly hunt in the world of true metal. Calling out to the realms of classic horror, pop culture, and mythology, their music is a journey through the imagination via tales of personal struggle and howling victory.
After an early demo and EP, Lycanthro’s critically acclaimed full-length album Mark of the Wolf (2021), showcased powerful storytelling, dynamic arrangements, and even collaborations with a chamber choir. Lycanthro have hunted on stages such as ‘Power Metal Quest Fest’ in the UK, and ‘Legions of Metal’ in Chicago, inviting a worldwide audience to join their pack.
Now, after joining US-based metal label Psychomanteum Records, the wolven-metal outlanders are set to release their anticipated second album Remnants of Rapture in May 2025. With every note, Lycanthro prove that the howl never dies, the hunt never ends, and the night is never quiet.
