Season of Mist are proud to announce the signing of ZHRINE. The Icelandic bringers of darkness will release their debut full-length under this name in the first half of 2016.
Regarding their signing, ZHRINE comment: "We are extremely pleased to have the honour of being welcomed into the fold of Season of Mist. They represent the same artistic values that we strive for, and we are very happy that our long and arduous journey of musical progression and development has finally won us a home at the very label we had set our sights on.
Furthermore we like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Michael Berberian and all of the Season of Mist staff worldwide for their warm welcome, and for affording us with this unprecedented opportunity for future professional and artistic growth."
ZHRINE rose from the fertile extreme metal breeding grounds of Kópavogur, Iceland in 2008, and soon began turning heads and snapping necks in the domestic scene with their brutal death metal style.
Through years of aural refinement of their more brutal tendencies into a crushing, yet ethereal, soundscape of oppressive blackened death, ZHRINE soon outgrew their earlier moniker of GONE POSTAL, under which they had started infecting eardrums worldwide with multiple performances at the Eistnaflug Festival, Iceland Airwaves Festival, and later, with a hard fought for and very successful appearance at the Wacken Metal Battle in Germany.
With their forthcoming debut album on Season of Mist, ZHRINE aim to introduce previously unheard elements of churning, visceral, atmospheres into the extreme metal palette, and cordially invite you, the listener, to join them on a road less travelled.
