On December 1st, Finnish Μelodic Death Metallers SWANSONG, have released their debut album, “Awakening”, through Noble Demon. Already garnering critical acclaim, this album seamlessly blends the best of 80’s and 90’s metal with versatile extreme vocals, creating a unique and captivating sound.
To celebrate the album release properly, the band has unleashed a brand new and captivating music video for the track “Become”. “Awakening” is available as colored marbled vinyl, CD digipak or digital release.
Combining the beautiful with the brutal since 2020, SWANSONG have never shied away from breaking boundaries. Drawing inspiration from the likes of DARK TRANQUILLITY, 90s Melodeath, Death and Black Metal, as well as SHADOW OF INTENT’s modern sound, the band’s vocals are a force to be reckoned with.
