Bio
Formed in Turku, southwestern Finland, during the summer of 2004 in purpose to create grim mix of melodic black and brutal death metal. Strongly influenced by acts like Dissection and Immortal, the sound ended up really close to it's paragons in scandinavian black, as the effect of US-style death metal grew even vaster. Rapid blastbeats, fast guitarwork and growling vocals blended with screams became vital parts of epic songwriting style. Two years passed by before a solid line-up was found. After a few months of composing, arranging and rehearsing Frostbitten Kingdom entered Noisecamp Studio to record "Through Nightfall Storms and Sunless Dawns". The debut full-length was recorded live in the very beginning of January 07. The whole process took 2 days, as the publishing took more than 6 months. In August of the same year "Towards the Battlefields" MCD was caught on tape at Noisecamp, again. The MCD featured two new songs and re-recording of the debut album track "Glory and the Death of a Stormwarrior". Fresh material was another step towards death metal as the influences of bands like Deicide and Immolation were more exposed. The session took 4 days and was followed by the departure of the former drummer. The rest of the year was a hunt for the new war batterist for the remaining members. As soon as suitable battery commander was found, the horde once again started preparing for studio session and upcoming live battles. "Towards the Battlefields" was finally released in April of 2008, almost nine months after it's recording. In September of the same year, Frostbitten Kingdom recorded their second full-length album at the caverns of Noisecamp. New album, titled "Obscure Visions of Chaotic Annihilation", was unleashed at March of 2009. With new commander behind the war battery, material took another step towards perfection on the second album. Shortly after the recording, Frostbitten Kingdom continued to spread their gospel with new epic battle hymns. Following the publishing of "Obscure Visions...", the legions of Frost also recruited a new shreadmaster to consummate their warhorde. Next to the freezing live battles, the year 2009 was also full of rehearsing for the recordings of the third full-length album. Including only the most crushing brutality this far, "Infidel Angel" was finally born in February of 2010. Recording deal with No Sign of Life was signed a week after that. 3 tracks from the new album online now! Album was released in 17th of June. -
