INNER SANCTUM announce all-star guest appearances on ‘Legions Awake’

Bangalore’s Inner Sanctum are really compensating well for the past few years of musical silence. After releasing what was probably the best lyrics video ever made for an Indian metal band and playing at INFERNO Festival in Norway, the band have announced the following names of guest guitar players on their upcoming album Legions Awake:

No doubt the band is going all out in creating quite a rumble before what is building up to be a very promising album. This list of star performers is definitely doing its part in upping the ante. Look out for it in late April!

INNER SANCTUM return with new lyric video ‘Wake of Destruction’, announce debut full-length

Death/Thrash metal heavy weights Inner Sanctum from Bangalore, have released a video for ‘Wake of Destruction’, their first single from their upcoming full-length debut release ‘Legions Awake’.

The follow up to the critically acclaimed EP ‘Provenance’, ‘Legions Awake’ promises to deliver to the listener the trademark Inner Sanctum sound; melodic, groovy and inherently crushing. The band claims there are tracks that are potential metal anthems such as Realms of Oblivion, March of the Wounded, Guardian, to name a few.

The band has continued its association with award winning producer/engineer Lasse Lammert (LSD Studios Germany) for the new record, who is renowned for his stellar production with thick punishing guitars and a massive yet crisp drum sound. Lasse Lammert has worked with Alestorm, Svartsot, Halcyon Way, Synarchy and Trials, among other bands.

For the video, Inner Sanctum commissioned Igor Omodei from Uneven Structure, the French progressive metal band. Igor is one of the most sought after designers whose arrangements are gorgeous and breathtaking to say the least. Igor Omodei has worked with Basick Records, Euroblast, Xerath, Escape the Cult, The Dali Thundering Concept etc.

Says guitar player Chintan Chinnappa:

The video is Igor’s interpretation of Wake of Destruction.. he visualised a woman playing both a victim and an abettor. She stands there blindfolded and is unable to see the war. She is a victim of the media and the government who have misled her with information. She is an abettor because of her inaction to the violence surrounding her. We intend on releasing the album in March. ‘Legions Awake’ will hit the right spots in terms of groove and melody. Fans can expect plenty of metal anthems from the album.
