Carpathia, by Freedom of Fear

Carpathia

by Freedom of Fear

supported by

Peggy Clark Melodic, technical death metal reminiscent of The Black Dahlia Murder with a bit of an ambient/progressive influence - think Obscura meets Exoplanet on the final two tracks Favorite track: Entities.

Drachensturm Another magnificent album, easily one of the best of 2022. Necrophagist techery and Black Metal ferocity with Neo-Classical solo wizardry. Favorite track: Carpathia.

about

Today, Adelaide extreme metal outfit Freedom of Fear announce their new album Carpathia will be released Oct... via EVP Recordings. The band share first single Zenith, an intense force of nature which combines tech-death, black metal and melodic death metal influences. Featuring German tech-death legend Hannes Grossmann (Necrophagist, Obscura) on drums, and the world class mixing of V. Santura (Triptykon, Dark Fortress), Carpathia bridges the gap between old-school sophistication and modern punch.

"Lyrically it explores the effects of consuming a ‘magic potion’. Set under a full moon on the coast, the subject goes through a psychological transformation, facing their subconscious thoughts and underlying animalistic instincts. The lyrics largely personify the ‘zenith moon’ as a perceived source of both wisdom and danger" - guitarist Matt Walters

Since launching their debut album Nocturnal Gates in 2019, Freedom of Fear have made a name for themselves in Australia’s metal underground through touring with Fleshgod Apocalypse and supporting other heavyweights of the genre such as Jinjer, Thy Art Is Murder, The Black Dahlia Murder, Revocation, Obituary, Ne Obliviscaris, Aborted, and The Ocean.

With respectful nods to everything from Cradle Of Filth and Morbid Angel to Obscura, the band harnesses virtuosic ability to rival the excess of the greats of yesteryear, and a classy sensibility that enables them to maintain an acutely modern relevance. The music is of the highest class and will no doubt put Freedom of Fear squarely on the metal map.

Freedom of Fear are Jade Monserrat – Vocals, Matt Walters – Guitar,
Corey Davis – Guitar, Georgina Kittel - Bass.

The band have also announced an album launch show in their hometown of Adelaide, with more dates to be announced soon. See below.
