Satanic North Releases First Single "War"
A new Satanic Panic is on its way! Satanic North is what happens when you let two well-known Finnish metal artists stare into the abyss for too long: Petri Lindroos (Ensiferum, Warmen) and Janne Parviainen (Ensiferum) are well-traveled, experienced musicians who have stared into said abyss long enough for the abyss to stare back with interest at some point.
The self-titled debut album will be released on April 19th, via Reaper Entertainment. The band has now released a visualizer video for the album's first single, "War." You can check it out below.
The band states:

Satanic North Reveals Debut Album Details
A new Satanic Panic is on its way! Satanic North is what happens when you let two well-known Finnish metal artists stare into the abyss for too long: Petri Lindroos (Ensiferum, Warmen) and Janne Parviainen (Ensiferum) are well-traveled, experienced musicians who have stared into said abyss long enough for the abyss to stare back with interest at some point. And he liked what he saw: now the new black metal brotherhood Satanic North has announced a self-titled debut that basks in ravishing gloom and will bring the bite back into the genre.
Ten satanic hymns to the night, ten examples of the power of the black flame will be hewn out of the darkness by the Finns and sent into the world on April 19, 2024. The spirits of the past, they stand by Satanic North with a stern face, helping to spread this satanic gospel around the globe.
The album came together quickly and effortlessly, exorcized and recorded during an unholy summer - which of course also shows how urgently this band was needed. "We kept everything very simple and practical. We didn't want to waste too many takes to keep the songs raw and natural," Petri explains. "The mix was completed by the winter solstice and now this beast lies in wait, ready to be unleashed." This will happen in April 2024: Here is an album storming towards us in the sign of hell, delivering an unrelenting, extreme approach to a genre that has perhaps become a little soft and tender of late. "We all have the same vision of black metal, and that vision is: stop the midtempo, let's bring back the blastbeats," Petri chants.
