Wrath Of An Empire is an intricately woven, nine part epic tale of ruin, heroism and dark deeds centred around the adventures of the Warrior, the Prince and the Magician.
The High Fantasy inspired sextet have been combining Euro metal themes with Asian influences since forming in late 2013.
Releasing the critically acclaimed A Skald’s Tale EP and the highly praised As Two Worlds Collide single and opening for international leaders of the genre including Eluveitie, Finntroll and Gloryhammer,
Stormtide have carved a niche all their own, while spending the better part of three years perfecting their debut album.With Wrath Of An Empire’s huge orchestral movements, crushing guitar riffs, intricate drum work and guttural vocals Stormtide have succeeded in joining epic metal with epic story. Expertly crafting an album that appeals to traditionalists and fans of modern metal genres alike.
Effortlessly transitioning between blast beat to soul wrenching quiet passages, Wrath Of An Empire is an album without filler songs, without cliches and without mercy!
Stormtide deliver an intense live show involving swords, sorcery and stylish full plate armour!
A national tour in support of Wrath Of An Empire will be announced soon.
You can catch Stormtide (as well as fellow Melbourne act, Horizons Edge) on Saturday, August 27th in Melbourne, where they will open for ex-Eluveitie member, Anna Murphy, for her solo performance at the Evelyn Hotel. More dates are to be announced soon.
Tickets on sale now through Tombowler.
