Scythia Premieres New Song "Into The Storm"

Canadian folk metal act Scythia premiered the new song "Into the Storm" over at Metal Injection at this location. The song appears on the upcoming new album "....Of Conquest," which is expected in early 2014.

The song features a guest appearance from Wintersun guitarist Teemu Mäntysaar. Vocalist David Khan commented: "This song is definitely one of the front-runners off of the new album. It is a great example of Scythia's musical diversity captured in less than 7 mins. It shows that we can write an orchestrated power metal anthem that evolves into a clashing instrumental that sonically represents a devastating storm. Complete with a guest appearance from Wintersun's Teemu Mäntysaari this song crushes, shred and soars above any of its predecessor's from our growing discography!"

The track list for "...Of Conquest" is:

1. Fanfare 1516
2. Merchant of Sin
3. Bear Claw Tavern (see music video here)
4. Sailor's Accolade
