Female-fronted Finnish Metallers CRIMSON SUN Release Lyric Video for ‘The Storm’

Hailing from Kotka, Finland, female-fronted quintet CRIMSON SUN play modern melodic metal with an ‘in your face attitude’.  The band has released a new lyric video for the song “The Storm” which will appear on their soon to be released debut album ‘Towards the Light’ via Maple Metal Records on August 3rd.

‘Towards the Light’ was recorded last Fall at Deep Noise Studios, Kouvola, Fi with Saku Moilanen, and mastered by Jacob Hansen (Epica, Volbeat, Amaranthe, Primal Fear)in Denmark.  The album cover art is by renowned Serbian artist Slobicus Doomicus.

Jacob Hansen has shared his comments on ‘Towards the Light’: “I really enjoyed the songs and the band. To me, this band could easily become ‘the Next Big Thing’! The song structures and overall sound is catchy, as well as being heavy.  Fine tuning this combination could mean big business!”

Crimson Sun was founded in 2001 by guitarist Joni Junnila, and the band went through various member changes before settling down with the quintet that recorded their highly praised EP ‘The Border’ in 2013.  Crimson Sun will be supporting Finnish metallers Poisonblack on a mini-tour in August, with some Fall dates to be announced soon with other artists.
August mini-Tour:
8/14 Dark River Festival 2015, Honkala, Fi w/ Poisonblack, Shear, Ranger, Ghost Brigade
8/15 Virgin Oil, Helsinki w/ Poisonblack

When my old buddy Kenn Jensen asked me if I wanted to contribute to the new site he had created, then called powermetal.dk, I didn't hesitate. My love for metal music was and is great. I wrote my first review during the summer of 2004 (Moonspell's 'Antidote' album). In 2015, I took over the editor-in-chief role.
