  Re-Armed, the melodic death metal outfit announces the release of their new single, 'Lost and Cast Off'. With relentless energy and an apocalyptic narrative, the Finnish metal act takes listeners on a sonic journey through the depths of despair and mankind's undying quest for survival - without forgetting visual story telling with lyric video. The so-called AI behind this single is bands own written and integrated system called, 'Re-Armed = ATHNTC INDVDLS'. BAND COMMENTS ON: "Behold, our magnificent new song and creation 'Lost and Cast Off' made via our very own 'ATHNTC INDVDLS' - the Mozart of data mastication. We shoveled endless streams of data into our five cores and five processors. Including melodies, chords, and lyrical nuances - like a musical buffet for our algorithmic brains. We learned, adapted, and now spit out tunes with an artistic flair that leaves us wondering, did we even contribute? Can you spot the elusive line between man a...

  Finland's melodic death metallers Re-Armed has released today a new EP celebrating its 20th anniversary, titled “XX”. The EP contains two new songs, one demo song “Morrow” (first demo - released originally 2002) that is fully re-produced, re-recorded, re-armed and renamed as “Tomorrow”, one acoustic version from previous album's “Beyond the Horizon” track and two special versions from previously released songs “Evolve Cycle” as arcade version and “Ode to Life” as orchestral version - all these versions are released with videos and are available on YouTube.

It was more than exciting to sha...

Finnish melodic death metallers RE-ARMED unleash their fourth highly anticipated album on June 5th via Black Lion Records titled Ignis Aeternum which is Latin for 'fire forever' which seems a very fitting title for what is to come... Opening track 'Dive Within' is powerful and fast throughout with quick fierce vocal bursts matching the speed and tone of the instruments wonderfully. It ends on a ambient beautiful note and gives you everything and more to keep you gripped. Soaring single 'Beyond The Horizon' features endless resonant and striking guitars which makes it exhilarating throughout, as well as memorable clean vocals in the chorus, making a nice contrast to the harsher vocals and acts as a brilliant representative track for the band and album. It is solid and slick with technical instrumentation and tonnes of depth, something the band thrives on. This is one to stick on repeat. 'Ode To Life' opens with some strong and prominent bass and...

Finnish melodeath unit Re-Armed unleashed the lyric video for “Ode to Life” which features guitar solo contribution from Euge Valovirta (CyHra).

Re-Armed informs: “We consistently choose to challenge both ourselves and the world around us. Breaking all boundaries is part of our writing process these days. This song is a good example of it. Metal music is generally full of cliches when it comes to song and album themes but we wanted to avoid most of these obvious cliches. Ode to Life dives musically and lyrically into the realms of existence. It is literally an ode to life itself, to our biodiversity, to our home planet Earth. So instead of all death, misery, and negativity, we do have positive messages within this song and in the whole album.” Watch the video below: Hailing from Kerava, Finland, Re-Armed has been aroun...
