Between enchanting tenderness and brutality, amongst the fires of the underneath and the coldest fumes of the North, this is the being called Winterhorde. Emerged in Northern Israel back in 2002, the Progressive Extreme Metal group has been evolving, seeking to become something greater with each chord they play and record. Only the skies are the limit. Whether through the ancient arts of blackened Metal through the gems of progression, Winterhorde are on their way to be the next thing in articulate extremity.
Winterhorde had the esteem pleasure, and privilege, to share stages in a variety of European festivals such as “Metal Days“, “Rockstadt Extreme Fest“, “OST Mountain Fest”, “Metalhead Meeting”, “Maximum Rock” and “Metal Yard” with some of the greatest bands in Metal such as Judas Priest, Behemoth, Accept, W.A.S.P., Dimmu Borgir, Keep Of Kalessin, Amaorphis, Satyricon and more…
Slowing paving their path within the progressive mannerism of Extreme Metal, Winterhorde unleashed their debut, “Nebula” (2006, Burning Star Records), which was followed by full European tour with finnish black metallers Catamenia. The second album “Underwatermoon” (2010, Twilight Vertrieb) was recorded and produced by V. Santura (Dark Fortress, Obscura, Paradox, Tryptikon).
By early 2016, Winterhorde completed one of their adventurous and highly mysterious epos, “Maestro” (Vicisolum Productions) was produced again by V.Santura and mastered by Jens Bogren. Both critics and fans welcomed the third studio album “Maestro” greatly, which saw the light in May 2016.
After the success of their third studio album, Winterhorde took a six-year break to regroup and recharge their batteries. Now, with a new line-up and a wealth of creative energy, the band is ready to embark on their next musical odyssey with “Neptunian” immersive listening experience.
To give fans a taste of what was to come, Winterhorde released the digital single “The Greatest Plague of Earth” in June 2022, which is not part of the album. The overwhelming response to this release caught the attention of power label Noble Demon, which led to a record deal and the release of the 4th album “Neptunian” in December 2023. The album was expertly mixed and mastered by Jaime Gomez Arellano (Ghost, Paradise Lost, Insomnium, Moonspell) to ensure a powerful and immersive listening experience.
To celebrate their fifth anniversary, Noble Demon have released another installment of the “Noble Demonic Metal” sampler series. “Noble Demonic Metal – Chapter 4” contains a hand-picked selection of the talented artist-roaster’s best songs, showcasing the label’s most successful singles as well as hidden gems from recent albums.
