Wolfheart

Forged in the frozen heart of Finland, WOLFHEART have become one of melodic death metal’s most compelling voices. With seven acclaimed full-length albums, countless global tours, and a signature sound that channels the fury and beauty of the north, WOLFHEART stand at the peak of the genre’s modern vanguard.Founded in 2013 by visionary multi-instrumentalist Tuomas Saukkonen, WOLFHEART immediately caught fire with their blend of fierce metal power and wintry atmosphere. Their debut, “Winterborn,” set the tone for what would become a discography defined by sweeping grandeur, emotional depth, and icy aggression. Follow-ups like “Shadow World,” “Tyhjyys,” and “Wolves Of Karelia” solidified their status among genre greats, praised for their cinematic songwriting and intensely energetic performances.WOLFHEART’s music reflects the stark beauty of the Finnish landscape: bleak yet poetic, cold yet emotionally resonant. Their songs often weave together themes of nature, conflict, and resilience, combining brutal melodic death metal with symphonic flourishes and a deep undercurrent of sorrow and strength.Over the years, they’ve shared their vision across the globe, touring relentlessly through Europe, Asia, North and South America, and Australia, and earning slots at major festivals like Summer Breeze, MetalDays, and 70,000 Tons of Metal. Their global fan base continues to grow, drawn in by the band’s blend of crushing heaviness, refined melodies, and mythic storytelling.Now, in 2025, WOLFHEART return with the “Draconian Darkness II” EP: an evocative companion piece to their previous full-length.
