Crimson Shadows debut with Glory On The Battlefield

On the heels of last week’s review of the new Bad Vibrations album and its mix of death and power metal signatures, we’ve had contact with a slew of like minded minds. Haven’t seen them live yet but Crimson Shadows are standing tall.

It’s an event four years in the making and now it’s finally time to get your head ready for banging and dust off those horns as Crimson Shadows get set to release their highly anticipated full-length debut album “Glory On The Battlefield” The blessed event goes down on Saturday, February 11 at The Hard Luck Bar (772A Dundas Street West, Toronto, ON).

"I'm really happy about releasing this album because so much has gone into it. The speed, technicality, and the sheer brutality are some things that I'm really proud of on this album. We feel that we've finally found our own sound and we can bring something unique to the heavy metal table that hasn't been done before." commented Crimson Shadows vocalist Jimi Maltais.
 Death and power metal are not two genres that are often mixed. In fact, until recently, it was almost unthinkable. But for Toronto, ON-based Crimson Shadows it’s all about ignoring convention and developing new sounds.

Combining the guttural screams and blast beats of death metal with epic guitar harmonies and choruses signature to power metal, Crimson Shadows recorded their mind-shattering debut at Shatterpoint Studios at the end of 2011 and are finally ready to unleash it on the masses.

Quebec's Kalter, Toronto’s folk metallers Bolero and Burning the Day will be joining Crimson Shadows for a CD release show and party of epic proportions only suitable for a band ballsy enough to fuse death and power metal.
