The heavens shall burn when they are gathered: Finnish melodic death metallers Horizon Ignited are taking things to the next level, announcing “Tides”, a colossal album that will forever change the course of a genre that has become increasingly stagnant in recent years.

“Tides” will be released on February 21st via Reaper Entertainment.

The album was recorded together with Juho Räihä (guitarist of Swallow The Sun) at Inka Studio in Orimattila, and the band fully unfolded during the process. The album was then mixed and mastered by Chris Clancy (Machine Head, Kataklysm) in the UK. This devilish duo perfected a huge album that grapples with the meaninglessness of life – and finds bliss and peace in it. “We are very young and meaningless on the universal scale, but by collaborating and coming together, maybe we can find meaning in this cosmic void,” says the band. Let this be our new mantra. And “Tides” the soundtrack to this new era.

Tracklist: 1. Beneath The Dark Waters 2. Ashes (feat. Jaakko Mäntymaa) 3. Baptism By Fire 4. Welcome To This House Of Hate 5. My Grave Shall Be The Sea (Leviathan pt. II) 6. Prison Of My Mind 7. Fraction Of Eternity 8. Aurora’s Dance 9. Tides 10. Fragments
