Belarusian black metal unit Raven Throne will release their sixth album entitled I Miortvym Snicca Zolak on 2nd May via Non Serviam Records. Raven Throne with this new album invites you to an odyssey in the splendor of the Slavic nature, which is based on poems from the beginning of the 20th century. The bands from the east Slavic countries can invent the supreme atmosphere that darkens the music with deep melancholy and Raven Throne is the perfect example to illustrate this tendency.
Raven Throne were formed back in 2004 in the ancient city Polotsk and have since then released five albums and one EP. The short lived first line-up collapsed after a few shows, the guitarist Chernotur (aka Dzianis Lukianovich, Thy Wings) kept the flame alive with War Head, who joined the band as a bass player in 2005. Encountering several line-up changes, the main core of the band had been formed in the person of Chernotur and War Head since then. During 2005 and 2006 Raven Throne was a studio project, until Ingwar Winterheart (aka Galdor) joined the band. The first records were made at that time.
Raven Throne had no drummer until 2011 and played under drum machine, but they released 03 magnificent albums till then. The band has become more active since 2014, started playing small and big festivals/gigs on regular basis. The current drummer Green Skin joined the band in 2015. The band shared stages with some prestigious local and international bands, including legendary Polish death metal troop Vader. Fifth album, By The Path Of The Forgotten, was released in 2016 via Possession Productions. The record was made by Chernotur and War Head as usual. In April 2016, the new line-up was renewed. Zergved Hellersatan (ex-Kaira) became new vocalist. Raven Throne supported Rotting Christ on their Minsk gig during the world tour in December 2017. First single and the pre-orders will be available very soon. Front cover artwork for I Miortvym Snicca Zolak can be seen below. Link
