Master's Call Signs With Fireflash Records
Master's Call are a force of heavy metal blackened by death from The Black Country, UK - the birthplace of Heavy Metal itself. Their debut EP entitled "Morbid Black Trinity" released in 2019 and was universally well received from the press and metal community worldwide, picking up positive reviews in magazines such as Kerrang, Metal Hammer and Zero Tolerance. With invites to perform at the likes of Hard Rock Hell Metal, Incineration Festival, Northern Darkness Open Air, Hammerfest, Odyssey To Blasphemy (DE) and even a headline slot on Bloodstock Open Air's "New Blood Stage,” the band is proving itself as a visceral dark force in the live scene, despite only a single EP release thus far.
Today, Master's Call announce the signing with Fireflash Records (Holy Moses, Mystic Circle a.o.). "We are honoured and proud to be partnering with Fireflash Records for the next chapter in our journey! We love the passion Markus has shown towards our music and our story- with his extensive industry experience and our unrelenting drive, this journey together will truly be one of unholy fire! Our debut album has been such a long time coming, but it’s finally ready to be unleashed upon the world with all the heavy blackened energy pounding from our souls! Expect fire, blood and damnation," comments co-founding member Dave Powell. "I love the mid-90s Black Metal and Master's Call have the true spirit in their blood, combined with the traditional 80s metal spirit of the British forefathers like Judas Priest, Black Sabath and Iron Maiden. I love the catchyness of their tracks, combined with brutality and a dark atmosphere that makes you wanna scream out loud. I believe this upcoming debut album of Master's Call will reach many black hearts and make them burst." adds Markus Wosgien of Fireflash Records.
After marching forth through the pandemic and various line-up changes within the band, the long-awaited debut album "A Journey For The Damned" finally reached the end of its long journey to completion. Their next chapter is about to begin and is set to burn their mark on the world! "It’s been a hell of a long journey with many obstacles to overcome, but for us it’s so good to have finally made it to the end with the summation of it all captured and sealed in time," says guitarist Dave Powell. During the album recordings, the band lost three vocalists in total, ending up having guitar player John Wilcox becoming the final singer. "So three vocalists down was feeling like a curse. We had most of the album written and even had the vocals for a couple of songs recorded with a vocalist we no longer had. In the end John volunteered to switch from guitars to vocals, which was a very drastic change for us dynamically as me and him up to that point were the two guitarists both live and in the songwriting," comments Dave and adds: "In the end whilst we finished up recording the album we had a new guitarist, Bear, join us to cover live shows at first, but has since become a fully-fledged band member."
