Metal On Metal Records Signs Wildhunt
Metal on Metal Records announced the signing of young Austrian technical thrash metal band Wildhunt. The debut full-length will be entitled "Descending" and will issued on April 29th. A trailer clip for the release can be viewed/heard in the player below.
Metal On Metal Records commented: "We are always on the hunt for young talented bands (and when we come across one that really stands out from the crowd, they have our full attention), but in this case Wildhunt were the hunters, as it was the band who got in touch with us a couple of months ago, sending us their debut full-length. These thrashers from Austria started out in 2011, but their music and sound harkens back to the late '80s/early '90s when some technical thrash gems were released in Germany and Switzerland... to the point that if we hadn't known what album it is and somebody played it for us, we would have thought it actually IS from that era! We can hear many influences from bands like Deathrow, Despair, Coroner or Grinder, but they have managed to create their individual sound and give their music a unique feel. These guys have impressive technical skills, but what's even more important, their songwriting is very strong, too."
More information on the album is expected soon. Check out the trailer clip here: More...
