PRESS RELEASE:
With their sophomore release, Cornucopia tries to widen the landscape of what metal can offer. While trying to remain faithful to the core of the genre they wish to put their own stamp in the tradition, that ambition is realized with “Cosmic Consciousness".
With songs that span up to 7 minutes they go into long acoustic parts that harken back to a progressive sound. The addition of synths on two songs as well as a choir on the last adds to the seeming thesis of the record, there’s a cohesive feeling of existential dread but with a tinge of hope that carries through the tracks and their respective lyrics. Cornucopia is here to add a new soundscape to the metal world and hope to resonate emotionally with their listeners in a way they haven’t tried before.
Cornucopia began as a project in 2021 in Kungsbacka, Sweden by the forming members during their years in high school. They have since then recorded two full length albums and one EP, with each release gaining more and more traction and building the band's sound and experience. With the release of The Seventh Seal (2022) they showed up on the scene with a more classic blackened thrash sound, but their influences come from a myriad of different genres, with each member having a foot somewhere else. Naturally this sound comes through in their compositions, with odd time signatures, chords and melodic intention.
The band has played throughout Sweden but also in their hometown Kungsbacka where they spearheaded a club called Metal Bloody Metal to help build an underground scene and do their part in the artform. They have been recognized both locally and internationally for their forward thinking musical intention and remain steadfast in playing and writing the music they love.
