This record is a must to hear for fans of bands such as All That Remains, In Flames and The Black Dahlia Murder.

The Japanese band Alphoenix was formed in 2015 and plays a melodic type of death metal. In their music, they combine aggression with sensational melodic guitar parts, clean vocals and growls. Revitalizing the global death metal scene is no small task, but Alphoenix is moving towards achieving it. So far, the band from Tokyo has released two studio albums: “Final Crusades” (2015) and “Evil Ways” (2022).

Today, the Japanese band released a video to the new single titled “The Jester Bird”, where Kouta from Thousand Eyes played a guest solo. The single was produced by Jonas Kjellgren (Sabaton, Amorphis, Hypocrisy). The cover was created by Shimpei – the vocalist and guitarist of the band.

Leader of the band comments:

“This song is a concept single dedicated to the melodic death metal of the 90s, mainly represented by In Flames. Whether it will be included in the album is still undecided.”
