SHIELD OF WINGS Releases New Acapella Video Showcasing Songs by DIMMU BORGIR, EPICA, AD INFINITUM, SEVEN SPIRES, MOONSPELL and ELEINE

Symphonic metal up-and-comers SHIELD OF WINGS has dropped the orchestrations for just a moment. Showcasing the multiple vocal talents in the band, bassist Alex Luke took on the acapella arrangements of several of the band’s favorite songs, including:

• DIMMU BORGIR “Progenies of the Great Apocalypse”
• AD INFINITUM “Seth”
• EPICA “Unleashed”
• SEVEN SPIRES “Shadow on an Endless Sea”
• MOONSPELL “Scorpion Flower”
• ELEINE “All Shall Burn”

Alex shared, “I’ve had a really great time working on these acappella arrangements for SHIELD OF WINGS. When I was younger I spent a lot of time making arrangements for choirs and acappella groups; I even published and sold some on sheetmusicplus.com. But I had gotten away from it in recent years, primarily focusing on bass with SHIED OF WINGS. So it’s been a real treat to go back to my roots and focus on pure vocal music for a little bit. Working with such talented singers is the cherry on top.”

SHIELD OF WINGS is a Chicago-based symphonic metal band with an elemental folk twist.  They began the year 2022 with their epic symphonic metal resurrection, in the form of their debut full-length album, Unfinished. This marks their first release since their hiatus after the 2011 EP, Solarium.
