NEWS: Admire the Grim bark at the moon!
Two years after their EP “Rogue Five” allowed them to play their first gig outside of Finland at Bloodstained Metal Fest in Estonia, Melodic Death Metal act Admire the Grim have announced the arrival of their next burnt offering. A debut full length album crafted over a two year period will appear via Inverse Records on 31st January with “Crescent Moon” the first single. Curiously enough, Antti ‘Hyrde’ Hyyrynen of Stam1na is a guest vocalist on the title track “Resist”
The band comments: “‘Crescent Moon’ was one of the first songs that we wrote for the album. We had a chance to play this song live on many gigs before the actual album recording in the summer of 2024. That way we got to test it out in advance and it was recorded just the way that we’ve been playing it live. While the song was still in its demo phase, it was clear that this song is going to be a single. It has a murderous intro that turns into straight up screaming – which means business. We wrote a lot of catchy hooks and melodies, but managed to keep the song heavy. ‘Crescent Moon’s lyrics are a metaphor for change and accepting change.”
