GRAVESHADOW Release "Vengeance Of Envy" Video
West Coast Tour Completes This Weekend
Last Friday GRAVESHADOW released their anticipated new album, 'The Uncertain Hour,' and kicked off a west coast tour. Today GRAVESHADOW release their next music video "Vengeance of Envy." Check it at https://youtu.be/oY6UCM7PPhQ
"I'm excited to release this song because of its straightforward and rock heavy sound," states singer Rachl "Raxx" Quinn. "Rock 'n roll is a large part of my origin, and the mesh of hard rock and heavy metal culminates in something I think that is truly special."
GRAVESHADOW's third album, 'The Uncertain Hour,' was produced by Miss May I guitarist Justin Aufdemkampe (Clutch, War of Ages), mastered by Alberto De Icaza (Crobot, Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist) and features artwork by Roman Ismaylov (Battle Beast, Beast In Black). The Sacramento-based quintet deftly mixes symphonic/gothic metal with elements and influences from a variety of styles to create something epic, progressive, melodic and powerful.
'The Uncertain Hour' sees a new lineup for GRAVESHADOW now augmented by the newfound energy that has been brought into the band by the soaring melodic performance of new vocalist Rachl "Raxx" Quinn and the rumbling rhythm section of new bassist Luci Rae and new drummer Bones Padilla. The returning guitar duo of William Lloyd Walker and Aaron Robitsch once again deliver a beautiful display of guitar histrionics that tastefully mixes searing shred with warm melody, while Aaron even adds some harsh backing vocals. GRAVESHADOW are back on the scene with a story to tell. Intertwining melodic highs and crushing lows to sweep listeners away on a journey of self-discovery, loss and the will to carry on.
CDs and limited-edition vinyl (200 copies) of 'The Uncertain Hour' are available in stores or can be ordered online from www.smarturl.com/graveshadow, as well as digital downloads/streaming.
Three digital singles and videos have been released in the buildup for the album. The first taste of new music from the reformed lineup came with The Witcher inspired song "Gwynnebleidd" https://youtu.be/XrorDG70g3Q back in May 2020. It proved the revamped quintet could create new music and be accepted by their existing fanbase and a new audience. Collaborating on more new music further sessions continued and were evidenced by "Soldier Of 34" https://youtu.be/qXDzhkfRjuM and "The Swordsman" (the latter even featuring guest vocals from Chelsea Murphy of Dawn of Ouroboros, Cailleach Calling and Tegmentum) https://youtu.be/WnFOUN9S4aw.

7/22 - Dante's – Portland, OR

GRAVESHADOW's previous album, 2018's 'Ambition's Price,' was given accolades by Metal Utopia for being "a great record with lots of great moments for fans of Nightwish and The Birthday Massacre." Metal Nation praised 'Ambition's Price,' declaring that "GRAVESHADOW has taken what has become a somewhat complacent and stagnant style of metal and breathed fresh life into it, creating something vibrant and memorable." The fantastical lyrical themes that were explored by the band on 'Ambition's Price' - their debut record for M-Theory Audio and the follow-up to the group's incubatory 2015 debut full-length 'Nocturnal Resurrection' - were applauded by critics and fans alike. The band followed the release of 'Ambition's Price' by winning over new audiences with extensive touring alongside bands such as Arkona, Sirenia, Exmortus, Night Demon, and Unleash The Archers.
