2021 release. New York City has always been primetime for an important heavy metal community in the United States. The nightlife, the people, musicians all around pushing their sounds to the masses. Home to this new quintet Shadowland - together since 2018 and issuing a demo, EP and single in annual fashion to set the stage for their debut full-length The Necromancer's Castle. Reaching back with a sound that has more of a primal NWOBHM meets early US metal influences, these eight songs possess that fiery steel ambiance and primal accents that make people don leather, studded wristbands, denim jackets of their favorite artists, and want to headbang at the force penetrating their ears.
