Chevalier

Destiny Calls

Separatist speed/epic metal from the frozen climes of Finland that relishes in the unexpected while giving metal fans exactly what they want. Destiny Calls, the first full-length from Finlands Chevalier, whips up ferocious speed metal while stretching itself out with epic song arrangements, all capped off by the not-for-the-faint -of-heart vocals of Emma Gronqvist. Recorded across two separate sessions in November 2018 at Black Floyd Analog Studio in Hameenkyro, Chevalier made it a point to ensure the rough and ragged atmosphere found on last years Chapitre II EP was captured. The albums nine cuts - including a re-recording of "The Curse of the Dead Star" from Chapitre II - find Chevalier weaving between their speed metal template and labyrinthine song arrangements. Its a difficult balance to strike, but Chevalier (who comprise vocalist Emma Gronqvist, the guitar tandem of Tommi and Mikko, bassist Sebastian Bergman and drummer Joel) found a formula that works for them, namely, the usage of momentous intro segments to kick off each song. From there, its off to the races with a deft combination of old-school metal savvy influenced by underrated metal heroes ADX and Omen, mixed with progressive song builds
