CELTIC HILLS Reveal Coverart + More Details of Upcoming Album "Huldufólk"! - @thebeast

Italian legendary Speed/thrash metallers CELTIC HILLS have finished recording their upcoming album, entitled "Huldufólk", containing 10 tracks + 2 bonus tracks, coming out in 2022 via Elevate Records. It will be the successor of "Mystai Keltoy". After "Mystai Keltoy"'s critical and sales success, writing a new album entailed a great responsibility: following in the footsteps or evolving towards something different?  There are also other news: The drummer Simone Cescutti after this job leaves the band to pursue a career as a singer and guitarist with his own band! So, to greet his fans, he sings a song called "Living out of the Egg". The other texts dedicated to the history of Friuli are "After the Earthquake" which speaks of the strength and courage of the Friulian people in rebuilding the territory devastated by the earthquake of 6 May 1976. "The Gate of Hollow Earth" tells of the legends of the mountains behind the city of Pordenone where there would be a secret entrance to the hollow earth. The album ends with the track "Villacher Kirktag" which tells of the Beer Festival in the city of Villach in Austria where every first Saturday of August Friulian boys go to party getting drunk and harassing beautiful Austrian girls! The text is sung in English with "notations" in Friulian and Austrian.  The album was produced also this time by Michele Guaitoli singer of Temperance and Vision of Atlantis in the studios of the Groove Factory in Udine and for the realization of the cover again the talented Sheila Franco.   Just recently band's singer and guitarist Jonathan Vanderbilt announced the guest guitarist, Gabriele Pala (Karnak, Azure Agony, Goldenseed), playing two solos in the album for the songs 'Green Forest' and 'Gate of Hollow Earth'. In addition to being a very good guitarist, Gabriele is an expert connoisseur of Chapman Stick, an instrument played with the tapping technique.  Earlier Jonathan revealed on "Huldufólk": "Again this time we will talk about Friuli, and the theory is at work that the location of the American Air Force Base Aviano is used to control an ancient access to the underground world, which has been used by the pagan gods since ancient times. The magical rites of the inhabitants of the mountains and the places where elves, fairies and gnomes once lived among the people are revealed. There are already definitive titles such as The Sound of the Earth in F sharp minor. A text tells how you can use the beneficial energy of the trees at dawn to strengthen your energies, but there will be no lack of historical events that accompany every CELTIC HILLS album." --------------------- 2021 has been a very positive year for CELTIC HILLS!

The style played is difficult to place in a single vein of metal, as there are many influences ranging from death to power, with sound elements that can also recall a certain type of 90's thrash. The singing is quite varied, and for some listeners it may seem unusual in a metal band. power, speed and good melodic lines distinguish the band from others. Between 2010 and 2020 they released "Horns helmet fighters" and for the Slovak Music Globalliance they came out on international compilations on volumes 2,3,4.  New CELTIC HILLS' logo was created by https://www.wappenschmied.com.
