Fate's Hand
Fate's Hand
With the roar of parting waves and the call of a thousand ravens, Australian heavy metal thunders into new being, bearing the ever-ominous moniker FATES HAND. Reverberating opuses, wrought straight from tales lost in time but ever-present in the blood of fellow men, across the bands self-titled debut EP does visceral melody grasp tightly on the spear of classic heavy metal, hearkening to the genres progenitors and in the same breath taunting, daring the very same gods. In a word, Fates Hand is both old and new, surprising and unsurpassed. Perhaps not surprising is the fact that FATES HAND comprises various members from Australias esteemed extreme metal scene, such heavyweights as Mongrels Cross, Impetuous Ritual, and Stargazer. While the same peerless standards of quality run rampant across the bands debut statement, this formation are their own masters, and empowered as such, FATES HAND deftly draw from the primordial well of Northern lore and attack in a savage foray of traditionalist heavy metal. And this is but the mere start of battles to be waged.
