New Album No Place of Warmth, Out May 8 via Century Media

Frozen Soul drop “DEATHWEAVER” just ahead of their U.S. tour which kicks off tonight. The single is 4 minutes of pummeling death metal that leans into their unchecked aggression of hardcore punk. It’s the final preview ahead of their new studio album No Place of Warmth – their most definitive and defiant record to date. At the center of it all is vocalist Chad Green, whose bellow sits somewhere between a spiritual guide, dungeon master and soothsayer, delivering tales of unending battles and vanquishing foes.

“‘DEATHWEAVER’ is about how slowly, in time, you lose pieces of yourself and gain new perspectives. Weaving your memories of life’s experiences to form who you are inside, and the cruel nature of life—the cycle of death—and how hard it is to stay who you are,” Green tells.

For the video, Frozen Soul turned to anime influences like Ninja Scroll and Noise Marines from Warhammer, in addition to Hellraiser 80s-style horror. Using that scope, Green crafted a story of a character that uses the veins, nerves and bones of their victims as a musical instrument, specifically a harp.

Green adds, “In the end, the video is about a woman that is centuries old, and in her eyes she is forever chasing her dream of creating the perfect harp. In reality, she is using the flesh, bones, veins, and nerves of her victims (us performing) to make this bone harp—the end reveal is nuts!”. I also had a ton of fun working with my childhood friend Eric from Mile High Animation on the design of the harp, he 3D printed it in pieces then I put it together, painted and gored it up with the help of Sam!”

In just five years, Frozen Soul’s brand of all inclusive, in-your-face death metal has captured the attention of countless fans of extreme music globally. No Place of Warmth, due May 8 via Century Media, is a monolithic, majestic and exigent collection of anthems built on the perfect blend of ferocity and subtle melody, allowing soaring guitar leads to guide a lantern through the dark chasm of merciless riffs. Across their third full-length studio album, Frozen Soul tells tales of the dark territories that come with dealing with the everyday struggle. It surveys the wasteland in the wake of their triumph and is an open letter to fans that decries life’s cold realities yet gives them the tools and the motivation to conquer on their own.

No Place of Warmth sees Frozen Soul distilled to its primordial essence– a brigade of road-wisened soldiers who’ve been to the frontlines enough and know exactly how to attack in their next barbaric sortie. The result is a more menacing version of the band hellbent on shock and awe and maximal minimalism– across eleven new songs, Frozen Soul keep it brief and focused, emphasizing brutality but with an ear for hooks. The album is a pinnacle for the band, and a shining example of flawless execution, inline with classics like Tomb of the Mutilated, Cause of Death, Heartwork, and Hacked Up for BBQ. “Our mindset was to stop overthinking it and trying to write the most epic song,” recalls Green.

While the title No Place of Warmth may hint towards subject matter on a glacial terra incognita, ever-expanding and devoid of signs of life, the record is also very much the opposite. “Each song on this record has its own meaning and influences that helped make them what they are, but in their essence are written to give the listener that extra push and power they need to fight those everyday battles. These songs are built to say ‘We won’t be swept away by its winds; we can and we will move forward,’” says vocalist Green emphatically.

This time around they’ve brought a gang to join them. For their latest effort, the band grabbed a trio of incredible collaborators for inclusion– Gerard Way of My Chemical Romance, Devin Swank from Sanguisugabogg and Rob Flynn from Machine Head. Though each adds their distinctive swagger to the LP, none can overshadow the mechanized killing machine behind Frozen Soul. “Anytime we have features, it’s with friends and bands that we love and respect who share the same feelings and emotion that we’re trying to get across in the song,” says Green. “Gerard, Rob and Devin all added their own unique styles and love into the songs and really helped bring them to life. It was an absolute pleasure working with them.”

Frozen Soul’s fresh and live theatrical take on old school death metal has earned them sold out tours and support slots with an array of heavy staples like Dying Fetus, Blood Incantation, Obituary, Amon Amarth, Killswitch Engage and Napalm Death just to name a few. Their breakout EP ‘Encased in Ice’ (2019) and two full-lengths ‘Crypt of Ice’ (2021), ‘Glacial Domination’ (2023), a festival of their own in Wrecking Ball Metal Madness, and now No Place of Warmth, cement Frozen Soul as a leading force of metal’s next generation. Tonight they embark on a tour across the U.S. with Sweden’s Avatar and Fleshgod Apocalypse. For tickets go here. See below for a full list of dates.
