Bottom line: with Winter’s Doom, Canada’s Sanktuary plays tried and true heavy speed metal, and they do it with skill and enthusiasm. Recommended.

‘Winter’s Doom’ Unleashed On Metal-Rules! Yukon Power Thrashers SANKTUARY Streaming New Album

New Album ‘Winter’s Doom’ Out Jan 22nd

 

L-R: Anders Grasholm – Drums | Cole Hume – Bass | Alan Binger – Vocals, Guitar | Glen Emond – Guitar

     Power thrash champions SANKTUARY are returning in 2016 with their new album ‘Winters Doom’ to follow up 2013’s widely praised ‘Something Fierce’.Set to be unleashed on January 22nd, the Yukon warriors of the Canadian North have teamed up with Metal-Rules.com for the full album premiere, which can be heard at the following link: http://www.metal-rules.com/metalnews/2016/01/18/sanktuary-winters-doom-album-premiere-a-metal-rules-com-exclusive/ 

“Winter’s Doom is a big step up for us and a step our homeland of the frigid North directed us in. The vast emptiness and shear mammoth proportions of this landscape lend a very helpful hand in open palm smacking the creative juices right into you. In this album the songs are faster, heavier and all around more to the tune we have always been drawn to. I’m sure all who listen will agree this is our best offering to date!” comments bassist Cole Hume.

‘Winter’s Doom’ is available for pre-order at the following bandcamp link here.

1. Space Race (4:30) [Bravewords]
2. Wild Is The Wind (4:12)

7. Maximum Authority (4:46)
Album Length: 32:55

About:

Power thrash champions SANKTUARY hail from the harsh and blisteringly cold of the deep far North of Canada’s Yukon Territory situating themselves in the city of Whitehorse (pretty far north, like the Siberia of Canada eh!). They have been trekking across the country for the past 6 years to bring their fierce and dynamic high speed riffs, catchy hooks, and belted out lyrics to the metal crowds.

A collective vision that began in high school with a group of like-minded teens fed up with the constraints of mainstream music who wanted to emulate the lifestyles of their favourite bands. Their straight-forward, no-bullshit attitudes shape their signature brand of heavy metal, which has led them to release the full length, 2013’s ‘Something Fierce’ that reached #19 on the national college radio loud charts, 2011’s ‘Tundrastruck’ split with Nova Scotia’s Black Moor and Montreal’s Metallian plus two EPs 2010’s ‘Black Magic’ and 2009’s self-titled.

Members of the band write harmoniously, basing each song off of a key riff from either Alan Binger (vocals and guitar), Glen Emond (guitar), or Cole Hume (bass), and then Anders Grasholm (drums) works his magic on the rhythm of each tune.

2016 see the band’s return with their sophomore album ‘Winter’s Doom’ set for release on January 22nd, 2016. The album features seven killer high speed, breakneck thrash metal tracks inspired by the Yukon’s far North they call home along with other issues such as politics, technology, etc..

“In the title track and album cover we portray ourselves as heavy metal warriors thriving in a habitat where most would perish instantaneously.That’s our homeland, the Yukon.” comments the band.

0 Made iN Metal – Sanktuary – Winter’s Doom

http://www.madeinmetal.es/index.php/discos/novedades/6860-sanktuary-winters-doom-2016

Todas las canciones son de alta velocidad, thrash del corte de la Bay Area. Que algunos momentos iniciales como los de “Vermin Lord” no te hagan perder la pista. Se trata de un tema épico de siete minutos, que cuando arranca, toma el ritmo “a caballo” típico de Iron Maiden, pero con más fuerza en las guitarras.

Vocalist / guitarist Jay Sarrazin comments:

“First off thank you for your support! Any advance pre-order or crowd funding perk you choose will help us go a VERY long way. We are 4 normal guys who work full time jobs and play in a full time metal band called CAYM. We work extremely hard to tour and make great music for our fans. We lose jobs, spend our life savings, miss countless occasions with family and friends all for the sake of living our dream. We can’t thank all our fans enough for the support you give us!!  We are trying to raise funds to go towards our next album, which we will be recording in New York City, NY USA with LEGENDARY FRONTMAN/ PRODUCER JOE DUPLANTIER from the band GOJIRA. We are hoping that you can help us reach our goal so we can get our limited edition merch, record the album and basically live while we are away in New York City for a month. What we’re asking is just a small fraction of our cost. We have come up with many awesome prizes for you to choose from. We can’t express how much gratitude we have for everyone who helps us on this adventure. Thanks so much for your generosity and belief in this band. We can’t wait to see you all on our next tours with our new record!”

Slowly and with great, but haunting, solemnity the curtains of this world are pulled back to reveal the dark beating core that is humanities essence. The essence of broken dreams and fallen romance. This is pure Black Metal joy.

  • January 16, 2016

  • · Gomorrah · Test Your Metal Records

“Carcosa” provides an excellent introduction to the various styles here…all of them blackened to perfection.  Feirce shrieking tremolo, crunchy chords amplified by violent drum breaks, and creepy-ass delay effects on some really goosebump-inducing leads.

  • · Gomorrah

Their dabbling with numerous guitar effects to create haunting soundscapes…Even the vocals, though they are purely guttural (it is death metal, after all), present stunning range, lyrical structure and a surprising amount of pronunciation.
