Babylonfall
History
Babylonfall is a hard-hitting metal quintet from Kouvola, Finland. The band combines melodic death metal with elements of groove and alternative metal. Crushing riffs and heavy grooves meld with deep growls and melodic vocals to create the sound that is heard on their debut album 'Collapse'.
Babylonfall was formed in 2016 with vocalist Okko Solanterä, guitarists Esa Viren and Ossi Viren, bassist Matti Huopainen and drummer Mikko Huopainen. The band rose from the ashes of the members' previous projects that had more or less crashed. Their mission was to have a solid line-up and to create modern metal with an old-school vibe. In 2016-2017, few demo songs and a handful of gigs were made, but the band soon began to vision their full debut album. The album was written and produced in 2018-2019 and finally got a 2020 release date.
Babylonfall's debut album 'Collapse' will come out on April 24, 2020 via Inverse Records.
