Ennesimo album per Anders Hansson Biazzi, musicista forse sconosciuto ai più, ma la cui carriera discografica è iniziata negli ormai lontani anni Novanta. Dopo Amon Amarth, Blood Mortized e Just Before Dawn, il chitarrista svedese si tiene ora impegnato con i Gods Forsaken, altra death metal band in cui militano, tra gli altri, il sempre più attivo cantante e polistrumentista Jonny Pettersson (Wombbath, Ursinne, Just Before Dawn, Nattravnen, Heads For The Dead, Ashcloud) e il chitarrista olandese Alwin Zuur (già bassista dei colossi Asphyx).

• Debut release from the long running and influential blackgaze project from the San Francisco Bay Area 

Burrowing into swirling, surreal and nightmarish scenarios, STRIGIFORM is a new entity from the void, exhibiting members of VERTEBRA ATLANTIS, AFRAID OF DESTINY and THIRST PRAYER, among the others. The Italian band's debut album, Aconite focuses on an intricate and incisive approach to songwriting, characterized by unorthodox riffs and a particular attention to the internal dynamics of the tracks, in order to maximize their impact.

Guitarist and singer Heljarmadr (Dark Funeral) expressed his thoughts: “Flame Of Hephaestus” is the first single from our new album Lycaon. We feel that it is a good representative for the album and it carries an intensity that kinda connects it with our last album Väsen. It serves as a natural bridge, if you will.

Flame Of Hephaestus brings us back to our early days, when we were including more influences from Greek mythology, alongside the ancient Scandinvian cult. It is therefore also quite suitable that Lycaon was mixed and mastered in Greece. Mixed by Terry Nikas and mastered by George Nerantzis”.

The Flame Of Hephaestus artwork was created by Italian artist Roberto Toderico, while the B-side, ”Stella Polaris”, is a single exclusive instrumental track, written by guitarist Maugrim. This is his first contribution for Grá as a composer.
