Angry, Undead est satisfaisant car des breakdowns ont été insérés et les compositions sont loin d’être monotones. Honnêtement, toutes les fois que l’album se conclue je le réécoute car je n’arrive pas à m’en lasser.

The guys have created an atmosphere that brings you back to the early 1990’s black metal scene with progressive song structures. This is an exotic sound in metal that isn’t one of the “popular” subgeneres that the kids go crazy for. Ashen Horde sticks to their guns and brings a different kind of intensity and dynamic that some bands fail to do so.

Symphonic progressive metal with alternative and gothic nuances – Red Cain are well on their way to establishing new territory in story telling and musical match-ups. Kindred: Act I represents a fine opening album for these Canadians, and should lend itself well to various multi-media opportunities for live show and film options. The best records connect on a mind, body, and spirit level – and this will be one that should be in the conversation for visionary, forward-thinking effort, proving the ink is not dry on what metal can bring to the table for innovation.

The band adds:
“The album as a whole is an eclectic mix of slow dark black metal jumping into extreme black riffs sometimes slowed down with a death metal riff and into acoustic guitars. There is no set template for this one, just a groove and feel that each of us has brought to the table.”

RED CAIN’s “Zero” Wins Music Video Award At Accolade Global Film Competition In LA
Debut Album “Kindred: Act I” Out Now
Calgary’s RED CAIN are thrilled to announce their music video for “Zero” in support of their recently released debut album “Kindred: Act I” has won the Award of Recognition in the Best Music Video category at the Accolade Global Film Competition in Los Angeles.
Music Video – Zero – https://youtu.be/UdlOEHxi1-E
The band comments:
“This is a brilliant and unexpected development that nevertheless validates the work and passion we placed into every track, video, and live performance for “Kindred: Act I” and inspires us even more to share what we do with you – the Red Cain Army!
We want to extend a massive thank you to Rik Zak and Jun Ren – their passion for their craft, for our music, and their relentless pursuit of perfection in the vision all of us created, was a key driver behind the success of “Zero”. We cannot wait to continue collaborating on many more outstanding film projects with these incredibly talented filmmakers.
And of course, we want to thank the entire team that was crucial in making the music video, compelling story, and incredibly cool project that is “ZERO”: R.A.V., Gina Zak, Blaise Zak, Igor Zayarny, Noah Bockmuehl, Arun Chaturvedi, Lucie Brouillard, Gary Walsh, Shae Dean Barry, Kristen Fischbuch, and Violet the hedgehog.
Check out the video, let us know what you think, and stay vigilant – there is much more to come!”
Born out of the emerging metal scene of Calgary, AB, RED CAIN is a modern melodic metal project with European roots. With intricate songwriting, a heavy yet melodic feel reminiscent of progressive acts, and eerie ambient elements, RED CAIN champion a fluid, dynamic, and unique musical style centered around telling dark, conceptual Faustian sagas and constructing those into an unforgettable live experience. Listeners might well pick out elements reminiscent of such luminary acts as Kamelot, Symphony X, Tesseract, Draconian, Marilyn Manson, whipped into a venomous new shape.
The band released their first full-length “Kindred: Act I” on March 1, 2019. The album was produced by Sascha Laskow (Every Hour Kills, ex-Divinity) with the band at Perfect Filth Studios and features guests Kobra Paige (Kobra And The Lotus), Daniel Louden (Benevolent Like Quietus) and guitarist Tyler Corbett. The album’s artwork was done by Timur Khabirov with cover design by Igor Zayarny.

Kindred: Act I is all about raw and unbridled metal power. A thoughtful brand of metal that – for once – does not base itself on mindless growling about the stage along normal lines of metal conduct. Instead they rip the established status quo to pieces and attack with a very unusual metal dish. One that comes with a distinct groove to boot… a very tasty fusion of Progressive and Power Metal that we have rarely seen to date. A metal dish best consumed red-hot. Have some, you will not regret it.
