Dont forget Sabaton's History Lesson genre!
Hahaha yes. Man it’s a brilliant concept.
Show me some 80's style pentakill ala black sabbath or maiden
You know, that would certainly be fun. You could argue that parts of lightbringer are in that realm, but we could certainly go further and embrace the “riffiness” (good god is that a word) a bit more.
More progressive metal uwu
I wouldn't mind the female vocalist on Tear of the Goddess being brought back to voice Kayle. Her voice is godly.
Yeah she’s fantastic. Saw her life a few months ago. So solid. Prog metal is in an interesting space these days, cos it can go in super melodic directions or go in a much more aggressive direction. What’s your favorite prog metal bands these days ? Or even songs? I’ve been waiting for a new Symphony X album for such a long time, agh.
That's great news! Anything else you can say about the upcoming album?
So far it’s just a thought. :) I think we’ll wanna make sure we capture the essence of Pentakill and keep things melodic and accessible, that was always the goal. At the same time, add something new to it. I think on this next one we would likely try to add some new talent to the group. The most important thing is the passion. Metalheads are a certain breed. :)
Usually we come up with a list of metal sub genres that we want to make sure we cover. Like on the first one, we knew we wanted to have something kind of classic and anthemic (lightbringer), something fast and fun (deathfire), something djenty (ohmwrecker), etc— so we gotta find what’s “next” for us to explore. Strong melodies is always at the core. Too much metal is just a bunch of effing distorted noise these days.

I meaaan yeah we are definitely gonna do another album of sorts. Question is when. Everyone’s excited about getting back into it though.
I doubt it would happen.

Jorn does what Jorn wants, and if Jorn doesn't want to do any more Pentakill (as he has said in the past) he won't.
He said that? Huh.
Damn. This is really good.
Sigh... guess it's time for Pentakill 3.
Popularity or "marketability" weren't really part of the equation when we started the music endeavor of Pentakill.
The real reason was that we had a few metalheads on our music/sound team that were dying to make some metal. (Kyugene(Eugene), Protoshredanoid(Jason) and I, to be specific. The skins had been out for a while, we thought "wouldn't it be fun to make a few Pentakill songs and put them out, just for shits and giggles", and we started it as a fun weekend project. Because we could play the instrumental parts and produce all the songs ourselves, we knew that we could probably get it done without having to ask for any budgets.
Eventually, we just kept having new ideas for cool songs, so it turned from "let's make 2 or 3 songs" to "lets... kinda make an album?" -- we got the songs to a pretty finished place pretty soon.
I remember us reaching out to Jorn Lande ZP Theart (I remember that when I called Jorn on the phone, he was currently on the roof of his cottage in the Norwegi...
