FATE'S HAND prezentują nowy numer

 

Today, Australian epic metallers Fate's Hand premiere the new track "The Cosmic Ash" at the New Wave of Traditional Heavy Metal (NWOTHM) YouTube channel. The track is the second to be revealed from the band's highly anticipated debut album, Steel, Fire & Ice, set for international release on November 14th via Dying Victims Productions. Hear Fate's Hand's "The Cosmic Ash" in its entirety exclusively HERE.

It was but 2021 when Fate's Hand quietly emerged with their self-titled debut EP. Downplaying their membership, the Australians nevertheless possessed a wealth of veteran experience, with members hailing from such heavyweights as StarGazer and Mongrels Cross among others. As Fate's Hand, they deftly drew from the primordial well of Northern lore and attacked in a savage foray of traditionalist heavy metal. In a word, Fate’s Hand was both old and new, surprising and unsurpassed.

Now flexing those same muscles across a full-length, Fate's Hand at last arrive with their debut album, almost-too-perfectly titled Steel, Fire & Ice. With swords drawn and teeth bared, on Steel, Fire & Ice do Fate's Hand sing an ode to victories on the physical and metaphysical battlefield. Whereas the Aussies’ debut EP totaled four songs, their debut album doubles that; as such, it more boldly and brazenly displays the full fathom of their powers and prowess. And like that EP, on Steel, Fire & Ice does visceral melody grasp tightly on the spear of classic heavy metal, hearkening to the genre’s progenitors and – in the same breath – taunting, daring the very same gods. Bloodied but unbowed, Fate's Hand’s songwriting goes to more epic lengths whilst remaining urgent and impassioned, stoicism and bravado colliding headlong for a timeless sturm and drang that engages ever more as the album plays on to its penultimate conclusion. High drama as heavy metal, still surprising and unsurpassed!

Fate's Hand keep the torch lit for fans of Judas Priest, King Diamond, Destruction, and Bathory. Turn the lights down and play it loud – glory to the brave with Steel, Fire & Ice!
