KRAMPUS – Debut First Official Music Video For ‘KRONOS’ HERITAGE’

Posted in folk metal, Heavy Metal, heavy metal albums, heavy metal news, metal music, Music, rock music, rock music news with tags , , , , , on July 28, 2012 by Metal Odyssey

Their first full-length effort, Survival Of The Fittest, has been produced by KRAMPUS’ charismatic frontman Filippo Gianotti himself at Udine’s legendary Blackmirror Studios and is set for release in late August 2012. Shortly after the release, KRAMPUS will embark on their first extensive European tour, joining Wintersun and Korpiklaani on 2012’s edition of the hugely successful Heidenfest tour.

KRAMPUS’ Declaration:

Krampus, the winter demon, has survived the repression of the modern gods. Born from shame for the mankind decay, under the cold breeze in the shades of the Alps, we join him in his dealing out of the fallible human’s just deserts. Like roots breaking concrete, we shake minds dulled by the weakness of present society. We fight fearlessly for our beliefs, aiming to give back at least some of what has been taken from mother nature. We kindle the embers hidden inside each and every one of you, choked by the lies of nations: Embers of Honour, Pride, Traditions, and Freedom.

What frontman Filippo says about the song:

“Kronos’ heritage Is a question: what are we going to leave to our children if we destroy their world? Too many times we forget that the injuries of this planet will bleed over our children.
There’s an African proverb that says: “this world is not the heritage of our fathers, but a loan of our children.”

Fear the Krampus…

KRAMPUS – Release Album Trailer, New Single and New Website

Posted in folk metal, Heavy Metal, heavy metal albums, heavy metal news, metal music, Music, rock music, rock music news with tags , , , , , , on July 28, 2012 by Metal Odyssey

Italian modern folk metal outfit KRAMPUS have just launched a brand new homepage (www.krampusfolk.com), released a brand new trailer for their upcoming album Survival of the Fittest, AND released their first single, “Kronos’ Heritage”.

The Udine, Italy based Modern Folk Metal band KRAMPUS can safely be regarded as the most promising and fast-rising star in their genre, all the while further expanding the boundaries of Folk Metal as we know it. With no less than 8 band members and an extensive use of traditional folk instruments, they invite to draw comparisons to the very elite of bands that devote themselves to bringing together old and new.

KRAMPUS are confirmed to play METALCAMP in August as well as the so-called HEIDENFEST tour throughout Europe in October/November alongside WINTERSUN, KORPIKLAANI, VARG and TROLLFEST.
