NETHERFELL sign deal with NOIZGATE Records

Debut album of Polish folk-metal band coming after tour in fall 2015 – NOIZGATE Records announcing title, tracklist and cover artwork.

Bielefeld, August 5th, 2015
NOIZGATE records announces the conclusion of an exclusive contract with Polish folk-metal band NETHERFELL. The sextet from Krakow combines traditional folkloristic melodies with powerful death- and metalcore. NETHERFELL are planning to release their first studio album ‘BETWEEN EAST AND WEST’ via NOIZGATE Records on October 30th, 2015. Shortly before, the band will tour Poland alongside GRAI – even stopping over in Germany for one show!

Founded in 2008, NETHERFELL can already look back on numerous festival shows and concerts alongside well-known bands such as Arkona, Dalriada or Alestorm. Tomasz Indyka (growls), Adrianna Zborowska (vocals, violine, recorder), Piotr Martu? (guitar, vocals, balalaika), ?ukasz ?cieranka (bass), Jakub Kondzielnik (drums) and Wit Rzepecki (bagpipes, tin-whistle, traditional vocals) combine a modern metal sound and traditional folkloristic instruments with clear female vocals and brute growls. Forceful and ecstatic, a musical journey through time. With this very own dynamic tone, NETHERFELL have long since earned a reputation preceding the band well beyond the Polish borders.

NETHERFELL’s debut album bears the title ‘BETWEEN EAST AND WEST’ and will be issued by NOIZGATE Records on 10/30/2015. ‘We come from a region with a very turbulent history that has been marked by many different peoples and cultures. That’s the reason we’re not oriented towards any specific folklore tradition. With NETHERFELL we’re forming a junction between modernism and heritage – and between east and west! That’s what our album is inspired by’, explains guitarist Piotr Martu?.

‘BETWEEN EAST AND WEST’ will contain twelve brand new songs and a bonus track. NOIZGATE Records is proud to disclose the full tracklist beforehand:
01. Intro – Rozdro?a
02. Ghost Of Kurgan – Upiór Kurhanu
03. Towards Fertile Lands – Ku P?odnym Ziemiom
04. Raven – Kruk
05. Light And Shadow – ?wiat?o i ?ie?
06. The Gathering – The Gathering
07. The Highlander
08. Woods Of The Dead – Las Umar?ych
09. Little horse – Kónik zmók i jo zmók
10. Mice Tower
11. Cross of the Sun
12. Dreamcatcher
13. Mokosz (Bonus Track)

Right before the album release, NETHERFELL will play an extensive Poland-tour. In on it: Russian folk-metal band GRAI, a NOIZGATE-band as well. Fourteen concerts are scheduled between 08/29/2015 and 09/12/2015 – one even taking place in Germany: On 09/05/2015 both bands will play at ‘Rock For Roots Festival’ in Nauen, close to Berlin.

At the label from Bielefeld, one is very pleased with the new signing: ‘NETHERFELL have made quite a dent on us right from the beginning. We listened to the album and were absolutely struck by this music! We have already enjoyed working with GRAI very much and are more than happy that we could now win another great folk-metal band – NETHERFELL – over to our label’, Annika from NOIZGATE Records states.
