Summer may just be about to begin, but Finnish melodic death metal maestros Wolfheart already look above and beyond as the release of their new album “Draconian Darkness” casts its shadows before. Recorded at Deep Noise Studios and produced, mixed and mastered by the band’s long-time collaborator Saku Moilanen, the record will be unleashed when the sombre season is about to return, on September 6, 2024, via Reigning Phoenix Music (RPM). Its first sonic ambassador, ‘Grave,’ will become available on June 7 and embodies the sheer rawness of dark winter nights combined with the majestic beauty of nature.

About Wolfheart
Originated by hardworking multi-instrumentalist Tuomas Saukkonen (Before The Dawn, Black Sun Aeon etc.), Wolfheart stand for a unique combination of sinister atmosphere and intense Northern European metal. Their music is based on sheer strength and poetic depth what generated much appreciation for their work within the worldwide metal community. While Wolfheart‘s art is mainly inspired by their Finnish surrounding, their albums tell eclectic stories connecting nature and human feelings, and with each and every album, they’ve managed to extend their artistic horizon and to give even more utterance to their music.
