Bio:

Starkill is an American melodic power / death metal band from Chicago, Illinois; The members met and began writing materials in 2008, eventually signing to Century Media Records on 14 December 2012 and releasing "Fires of Life" on 16 May 2013.The band has incorporated many different musical styles, leading critics and fans to label them as melodic death metal, power metal,thrash metal,and symphonic black metal.Founding members, and brothers, Parker Jameson and Spencer Weidner had been writing material since their early teens, yet had difficulty putting together a full band due to the lack of like-minded, capable musicians in their hometown. Because of this, Parker enrolled at Indiana University, hoping the school's music program would expose him to musicians with similar aspirations.Shortly after beginning his freshman year at Indiana University, Parker met guitarist Charlie Federici. The two discovered that they shared similar musical influences and goals, and with the addition of Charlie, the core of the band was formed.The three began writing and performing material under various names in the Indiana and Midwest regions, eventually attracting the attention of Century Media Records in early 2012 while subsequently and permanently settling on the name "Starkill". The band began recording their debut album at Electrowerks Studios that summer, and announced their signing with Century Media months later in December.Their debut album, Fires of Life was released in May 2013 and then the band toured around North America and Europe.On April 11, 2014 Starkill released a music video for "Sword, Spear, Blood, Fire" and announced plans to record a new album at Electrowerks Studio with producer Chuck Macak with an expected release date in the fall of 2014.On July 17, 2014 the album artwork, title and release dates were revealed for the album, titled "Virus of the Mind". The scheduled release dates were October 14, 2014 in the USA and Canada and October 20, 2014 in Europe, Australia and New Zealand.On August 7, 2014 the first song off the album, "Breaking The Madness", was released on the Century Media Records YouTube channel, as well as the track listing and lineup of the album.A video discussing the recording of the album, dubbed "Creating The Virus - Part 1" was released on August 21, 2014,followed by a second video, "Creating The Virus - Part 2" on September 17, 2014.The first video off the album "Before Hope Fades", was released on YouTube on October 2, 2014 and on October 13, 2014 Virus of the Mind was made available for streaming on nocleansinging.com.Virus of the Mind was released on October 14, 2014 in the USA and Canada and on October 20, 2014 in Europe, Australia and New Zealand.On November 6, 2014 a lyric video of the title track "Virus of the Mind" was released.

Album:

STARKILL are back at it with a massive new instalment entitled “Shadow Sleep”. This band from Chicago, Illinois is offering us some Melo-Death ear candy yet again. “Shadow Sleep” is only their third full-length album since their name change to STARKILL in 2012, and yet the harmony between the members makes them sound like they’ve been at it for ages.The album opens on “Walk Through Fire”. The melody is enticing from the jump, with a relentless beat that will instantly get you in the right mind frame. The keyboard contributing a huge lot to the catchiness of this song, and mixing grunted and clean chorus vocals truly does wonders for this band.“Burn your world” was the first official video of the album that I’d seen. It is a great introduction to this new work from STARKILL. Again, the chorus of clean vocals mixed with Parker’s grunts gives it a great hook; and this also echoes in “Shadow” and “Cloudless”. They use this mix of vocals all around the album to keep you hooked.The beat slows down in “Through The Darkness” in which we are introduced to Sarah Lynn Collier, a new vocal addittion to STARKILL, and one that really give a whole new sound to this band. Her beautiful voice really complements Parker’s very well. When the two sing in harmony, the sound is unbelievably enticing. The same can be heard in the songs “Piece of Paradise” and “Razors Edge” where they also merge their voices as one for some parts. It was a stroke of genius to unite these two voices.The album as a whole is a melody. It is clear that the band gained a lot of maturity and skill throughout their years of touring, for the finished product is a refined and mature album, at the border of Symphonic and Melodic Death Metal. Fans of STARKILL will love this new instalment and for the others, it would be a great introduction to this band.
