Hailing from the new world, and more precisely from the mighty promised land of Amazonia... Brazil... the ultimate refuge, the last Heavy Metal Eldorado...The South American Headbangin' Eden. Here is a new ferocious contender for the vacant throne: GREYWOLF published by underground heroes Arthorium Records...

By blending the most Metal elements with integrity, in the noble loyalty, with the well reverenced method of allegiance, the whole terrific equation is set with praise, the fair respect and enough talent to honor the essential heritage of illustrious elders. Not unlike the alchemists of the Middle Ages and other enigmatic heretics, mysterious wizards of the darkest times, it seems that the main man / composer / singer / bassist Fabio Paulinelli Silva (BROTHERS OF SWORD / ex-WITCHKROSS) found the hidden cryptic recipe, revealing a new mystical alloy, as a secret transmutation finally captured in a silver platter, published under the "Glorious Death" moniker!

Similar to the sum of legendary classics like "Branded and Exiled" mixed with "Hail To England" or "Into Glory Ride",  forged in a cauldron of sonic doom of thunder, condensed in a Barbaric spirit, boosted under a testosterone-driven vocal mode, like a wild ride within the wind of Hellish Fire, a "revenge/die by the sword/eye for an eye" attitude, and of course the epic glory of the victory thematic in the lyrics, with a loud sharp Bass guitar pushed a the frontline mix... 10 hymns filled with classic riffs and anthemic choruses.

This new GREYWOLF album, like the first one in 2014, could be considered as a solo project by Fabio Paulinelli (aka Fabio Greywolf), but this sophomore album is about to delight the most picky real Hellraisers/the most demanding Beerdrinkers & experts MetalHeads with some hot tracks of Virgin Metal, Indeed this could be the genuine cleansing for those onwards to the ultimate gates of Valhalla armed with this new blade of pure steel...Or perhaps and more simply, the perfectly crafted, the accurate soundtrack for the long trips to Festivals , the ideal road companion, the elixir to reach the true glorious destination for the Wacken pilgrim path in the late summer heat

After many interesting projects under his bullet-belt ("We Are Metalheads" & "United For Metal"), in 2016, Fabio still focused in his stubborn dedication with honestly and fervor to the heathen sound, and his bunch of Brazilian warriors from Belo Horizonte has finally succeeded with triumph, achieving with pride his faithfully goal...Hat off mister.

Now, dear Metal-Temple's readers/followers, It's time for ya to show your guts and to prove your devotion by worshiping the gods of teel... Buy it (hurry up the physical CD edition is limited to only 1000 copies worldwide) or you could be condemned to listen to BABYMETAL forever!
