BATTLE BEAST Circus Of Doom

Popis:

After resigning to Nuclear Blast in early 2021, Finnish heavy metal sextet Battle Beast is once again getting ready to unleash a force upon the world in the shape of the brand-new masterpiece "Circus Of Doom". In true Battle Beast fashion, the 10 tracks blend true heavy metal with pop and rock vibes, paired with Noora Louhimo's unique voice. "Circus Of Doom" was once again recorded at JKB Studios in Helsinki, Finland and produced and mixed by keyboardist Janne Björkroth, while the stunning artwork was created by Jan Yrlund (Korpiklaani, Manowar, etc.), who already took care of Battle Beast's previous two album designs.
Having only formed in 2008, Battle Beast first signed a record deal with the renowned German metal label Nuclear Blast in 2011. The release of the acclaimed debut "Steel" (2012) won the band a support slot for label mates Nightwish. Frontwoman Noora Louhimo finally joined the band in 2012 and the band's self-titled record (2013) was released shortly afterwards. Battle Beast then got the opportunity to open for bands such as Sonata Arctica and Powerwolf on extensive runs. The ascent up the metal ladder was quick and the band's third studio album "Unholy Savior" achieved remarkable chart positions all over Europe (#1 Finland, #23 UK Rock, #39 Germany). This release was accompanied by another big European tour, but this time with Swedish heavy metal heroes Sabaton and Delain. Battle Beast's very first headline run throughout the continent rounded off the "Unholy Savior" touring cycle.
Fourth studio album "Bringer Of Pain" (2017) reached even higher chart positions (#1 in Finland, #14 in Germany) and was also Battle Beast's first output without the original songwriter Anton Kabanen. In 2019, alongside the huge #1 success in the album charts of the band's home country Finland, last album "No More Hollywood Endings" reached a remarkable #11 in the German album charts and proved to be the most successful platter yet.
"Circus Of Doom" is overall heavier, but still as catchy as ever with bangers like "Masters Of Illusion", "Freedom" or the title track "Circus Of Doom". Once again the band stays true to its formula of 100% heavy metal - 0% bullshit!
