Sanktuary has delivered with theirs and we expect many great things from these guys in the coming years. With this proven style of music that is an art unto itself, Sanktuary brings us new hope when it comes to high speed thrash metal, and they give us many great things to look forward to in the years to come. For now, ‘Winter’s Doom’ will be blasting loud in our ears and when we need to wake up, or just need to feel better about the day, the radio dial will be cranked up to this fantastic album.

0 The Dirty Room – Sanktuary – Winter’s Doom
Time and time again we hear from the older metal veterans that there are no younger bands that are ready to take over for them and that they don’t see enough great new bands. Well they haven’t been looking in the right places, like Canada, home to thrash metal giants Sanktuary. Holy shit this band knows how to fucking rock! From the opening killer riff of “Space Rock” to the head bashing “Corpse Blockade” and “Maximum Authority”, this album is 100% grade A metal. The nod to old school thrash shines all throughout the album.
0 Rock Music Raider – Sanktuary – Winter’s Doom
It must be the Northern Lights. Or the cold and remote Yukon countryside. THIS is good old Thrash and Heavy Metal of the speedy kind spilling over the pond into Europe in all its putrid splendor…Sanktuary carelessly take Thrash Metal and then shamelessly transgress on Heavy Metal territory to pick up some elements, shake all of this well and spit it out. This is then spiced up with heavy riffing and soloing, leaving you with a heavily metallic aftertaste in your eardrums, whilst bobbing in their wake as they move on to the next track. Their no-nonsense approach to #metal is refreshing.

More about Van Halst:
The band’s influences stay true to goth rock, Kami Van Halst demonstrates an agile vocal delivery in combination with pummeling growls. Lyrically, the band draws from black metal due to its focus on people suffering from isolation and rising to overcome the preconceptions of a judgemental society. In This Moment’s industrial fusion remains a primary influence for Van Halst, employing a sampler, synthesizer, and distorted vocals.
Kami Van Halst dominates as the vocalist performing both growls and soaring vocals (Surviving Suzanne), Scott Greene (Derina Harvey Band/Dirty Pool) and Strathon J. Bajowsky (Havok Way) craft the guitar work while Brendan McMillan (bass) (My Darkest Days) and Brett Seaton (drums) (Cultured by Fire) drive the rhythm section of the band. Kami’s range and virtuosic vocal ability always captivates an audience and her attitude on stage truly delivers the meaning behind the songs. The main writing forces for the band are Kami and Scott working together to give listeners a vivid image of social injustices. The band’s live performance is a theatric experience as the utilize full-costumes, make-up and stage props.
