Info:
SHRAPNEL STORM’s third full-length, entitled "Silo", continues their work within crushing mid-tempo death metal, mixed in with ruthless thrash components of speed and groove. These attributes are on full display over the course of eleven tracks set in a lightning warzone and fits alongside the likes of Bolt Thrower, Obituary and Six Feet Under.
"Silo" kicks off ominously reflecting the eerie sounds of oncoming doom and destruction, blasting into one of band’s more fast-paced tunes, followed by brutal stomping and wicked melodies track after track. Compared to their previous works, 2015's "Mother War" and 2020's self-titled "Shrapnel Storm", the new album has the most variation when it comes to general "feeling" of songs, going from menacing to empowering. It is a ride of different emotions, all depicting aspects of giving your life to something you believe in, sometimes in vain.
Recording, mixing and mastering of "Silo" was executed by Daniel Rantanen at Danko Tones / JR Audio studios at first half of 2023, and the album was produced by Aadolf Virtanen. The cover and booklet design was made by Ville Yrjola. Get ready for old-school death metal from Tampere, Finland!
