Happy Samhainn, heathens! It's somehow been four years since we released our debut album, which has absolutely flown past. A huge thank you for all the support since then🖤 We're on track for getting into the studio for album 3 before the end of the year, will keep you posted! #metalsky

#metalsky It's somehow a year ago we were out in the wilds on the west coast of Scotland filming the Fell Reigns vid with the awesome David Gregory Film as part of the work-up for Corryvreckan's release this year. If you missed the results, full video is on Prosthetic's YT. That loch was utterly...
