Canadian melodic power thrashers Triskelyon will
be unleashing their debut album "Downfall" on
October 28th, 2022 via Washington state-based extreme metal label Moribund Records.
Today, the band presents their latest music video for the single "Balance of Terror".
The song features vocals from Amanda Marie Jackman (Category VI). Band founder
Geoff Waye explains the track:
"'Balance of Terror' is primarily a nod to the best classic
Star Trek episode (Star Trek: The Original Series: Season 1, Episode 14). It's
also about the balance of power that has been built up over the decades. The
music video was filmed along the coastline in the area of Cape Spear
Newfoundland. There's a couple of shots from with the large guns that were a
part of Newfoundland's coastal defense during WWII."

Founded by Geoff
Waye, guitarist for Artach and Category VI, Triskelyon was
conceived in late 2021 as a studio-only project. By January 2022, the band
featuring contributions from vocalists Pete Healey and Marlee Ryley (Hyperia),
along with drum programming by Raul
Marques (Burning Torment) made their introduction to the
metal world with a 3-track self-titled EP.
Composed and written mostly by Geoff Waye, with drum programming
provided by Raul Marques, “Downfall” sees
the band's next evolution as their first full length and it utilizes a myriad
of both male and female guest vocalists from Oberon, Hyperia, Catagory VI and
Incidium. “Downfall” has
a range and depth of sound unique in today’s modern thrash metal scene, setting
the band ahead and apart from the hordes of young new acts. Triskelyon also
features guest bass appearances from members of Afterforever and Category VI,
making Triskelyon a
veritable supergroup of the Canadian metal scene.
Depicting a nature taking over post-apocalyptic view of our ever-screwed-up
world, Triskelyon keeps
with 80’s thrash tradition employing world-ending yet self-empowering socially
conscious lyrical themes. From straight-up 80’s thrashers like “Odyssey
(Blessed by Steel)”, to the power metal laced “Find A Way”, and more anthemic
thrash tracks such as “Hunger” and “Willful Ignorance”, “Downfall” is
sure to satiate even the most discriminating old-school and modern thrash metal
fan alike! The album even features a unique and thrashing rendition of the
Billy Idol song “Nobody’s Business”.
Album was mixed/mastered by Michael Small with the
post-apocalyptic cover art by IvaanMR11.
With “Downfall”,
Triskelyon deliver an amazing headbanging album that
harkens back to the old-school days of such luminaries as Forbidden, Agent
Steel, Sentinel Beast, Détente, Overkill, and Testament.
