PRESS RELEASE:
Folk metal fans, get ready to join the battle alongside Forsaken Rite, Edmonton, Canada’s premier symphonic folk metal band, who are proudly releasing their new EP “The Forgotten West”. This five-track EP marks a bold new chapter in the band’s journey, showcasing their evolution and growth as artists while staying true to the epic, adventurous spirit that has defined them since their formation in 2012. They comment on the upcoming release:
“We want this EP to be a continuation from our full-length album “The Northern Saga”. Where every song, though, unique, and listenable on its own, is still very much part of the whole story, the adventure. We want our listeners/fans to join us once again on our adventures and feel like they are every part of the Warparty contributing to its success.”
“The Forgotten West” is a collection of songs that take listeners on a grand adventure across multiple regions, times, and events. From the haunting melodies of the title track to the thunderous battle hymn “Call to War”, the EP weaves together intricate orchestral arrangements, soaring clean vocals, and hard-hitting distorted vocals to create a rich tapestry of sound. Forsaken Rite’s signature accordion-inspired leads are accompanied by distinctive flute lines and expansive orchestral elements, all supported by virtuosic guitar solos, driving bass, and thundering percussion.
This EP is not only a testament to the band’s musical prowess, but also a reintroduction to Forsaken Rite after a period of significant change. With a new lineup and a refined sound, “The Forgotten West” serves as a bridge between Forsaken Rite’s past and future. It is recommended for fans of Nightwish, Faun, and Ensiferum.
