| Epic Symphonic Metal band SHIELD OF WINGS are streaming their new album, “Unfinished” right now on Decibel Magazine! The album explores themes of growth through self-examination, regret, sacrificial death and rebirth. With bold, vast orchestral compositions soaring over chugging guitars, SHIELD OF WINGS makes it abundantly clear that they are Unfinished, in more ways than one. Songwriter/guitarist James Gregor comments on the album, “”Unfinished” is an album that displays a wide range of emotion and sonic exploration, drawing from the last decade of my life, and (hopefully) some growth experienced in that time. Though I would generally characterize it as Symphonic Metal, I have been told others can hear influences of death, folk, power and even black metal. The word “epic” seems overused these days, but it is the one I keep hearing people use to describe our sound. So, I hope this record takes you on an “epic” and authentic journey, through despair, finding encouragement, and ending in hope.” Listen Now: https://www.decibelmagazine.com/2022/02/09/album-premiere-shield-of-wings-unfinished/ |
