Fertility Cult
A Song Of Anger
Founded in late 2008 and hailing from Tampere, Finland, the band has been noted for their unique sound and songwriting style ever since the release of their debut full length 'Eschatology' in 2010. The band have continued to perfect their sound to an "esoteric level" (Progarchives.com), with depths of doom and crests of heavy metal interspersed with psychedelic and jazzier forays laced with saxophone. "I love the way the band contrasts light and dark" (Apocalypse Later Music). Playing live only sporadically, The Fërtility Cült is known as an intense live act. The band returned to play the classic 'Dream Of Dr. Sardonicus Festival Of Psychedelia' in Cardigan, Wales for the second time in 2024. 'A Song Of Anger' is the most complete concept album the band has conceived. It's a thematic prequel to its predecessor 'Kosmodysseia,' which was dubbed "close to perfection" by Desibeli.net. The album is recorded predominantly live in the studio as has been the methodology with previous outings also. Many of the band's old friends feature as guests on the album: the band's original guitarist Arttu Kimmel (lead guitar on 'The Curse Of The Atreides'), Antti Loponen (lead guitar on 'Fame Everlasting') of Consciousness Removal Project, Minttu Tervaharju (lead vocals on 'Briseis,' backup vocals on 'A Song Of Anger'), formerly of Ochre Room, who did backup vocals for the debut album, Markus Pajakkala (soprano saxophone on 'A Song Of Anger') of Utopianisti and recently Von Herzen Brothers, as well as Pete Bingham (spoken word on 'A Song Of Anger') of Sendelica.
