A first preview song will be uploaded to the label's YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UChHTHjKUxwoMu9UqrABF7WA) by early/mid May. Meanwhile, go like the band's page (https://www.facebook.com/valgrindband) and make sure to listen to their previous output (https://valgrindband.bandcamp.com).
VALGRIND was born from the ashes of the ultra-underground act Necrospell in 1993, as a Death/Black Metal project with both extreme and melodic influences. Over the following years the band released four demos and developed its own style, combining the main influences (Morbid Angel, Pestilence, Death, Nocturnus, Possessed, Monstrosity, Immolation...) with a passion for the epically dark atmospheres of bands like Candlemass and early Paradise lost. Disbanded in 2003, the strong will to return on stage of both founding member and main songwriter Massimiliano Elia, and vocalist Daniele Lupidi (also frontman of Hateful), made VALGRIND's return possible in 2008. With the addition of new motivated members, the band released their debut full-length, "Morning Will Come No More", in 2012. The album contained almost one hour of classic Death Metal filled with killer solos, memorable riffs and obscure vocals. Following the release, a series of shows were held in Italy, Germany, Holland and Sweden. In 2016 the band delivered their sophomore full-length, "Speech of the Flame", via Lord of the Flies Records. The music strayed away from some of the early influences to become more personal, while the lyrical concept dealt with the darkest sides of the ancient Mediterranean civilizations. An EP called "Seal of Phobos" followed in 2017, and only one year later VALGRIND delivered their 3rd full-length, and most ambitious work to date, on Everlasting Spew Records. "Blackest Horizon" saw an increasing level of technicality in the guitar department, while retaining the old school vibe of the previous works. Vocals became less guttural and more aggressive, while a more organic production gave the listener a wider musical spectrum to dive into. Again, the public was introduced to the new songs in some memorable shows, including Helsinki Deathfest in 2018. VALGRIND entered the studio in mid 2019 to record their 4th full-length. Lyrical inspiration for this new chapter comes from the myths of legendary creatures and beasts in various ancient cultures. Expect yet another lethal dose of old school Death Metal with a unique touch!
